La Crosse Technology WS-9031U User manual

WS-9031U Quick Set-up instructions
1) Insert two AA batteries into the remote transmitter.
2) Insert three AA batteries into the Weather Projection Station and/or plug into wall.
Note: When starting or restarting your weather projection station the transmitter should be started first and then your
weather projection station. After power is supplied (either battery or AC) ensure that no buttons are pressed
for 15 minutes. This will allow time for the weather projection station to communicate with the remote
transmitter as well as receive the WWVB signal.
3) Wait 15 minutes for WWVB reception and remote temperature and humidity.
4) If there is no WWVB reception, manually set the time, date and time zone (instructions are also in the Manual Settings
section of the main manual).
Manually setting the time zone and time
1) Press and hold the SET button (located on the back of the unit) until
the LCD digits start flashing.
2) Press and release the SET button once or until the current TIME ZONE
is displayed.
3) Press and release the CH/+ key to advance the time zone to your time
zone.
4) Press and release the SET key four times or until the
HOUR digit begins to flash.
5) Press and release the CH/+ key to select the correct
hour. “PM” will appear for hours from 12 noon until
midnight.
6) Press and release the SET key to advance to the MINUTE setting mode.
7) Press and release the CH/+ key to select the correct minute.
-Optional- setting the Day, Month and Year (This will be set automatically upon WWVB reception)
8) Press and release the SET key to advance to the YEAR setting mode.
9) Press and release the CH/+ key to select to the correct year.
10) Press and release the SET key to advance to the MONTH setting
mode.
11) Press and release the CH/+ key to select to the correct month.
12) Press and release the SET key to advance to the DAY setting mode.
13) Press and release the CH/+ key to select the correct day of the month.
14) Press and release the SET key three times to complete the settings or wait 15 seconds and the display will exit the set-
up screen automatically.
Note: All manual settings will be updated and corrected once the WWVB signal is received (typically overnight
when the signal is strongest).
5) Place the WS-9031U in your desired location.
6) Mount the transmitter in a shaded area protected from rain, where remote temperature and humidity measurements are
desired (on the North side of a house for example).
Note: When placing and mounting the transmitter and weather projection station please keep in mind that the
transmitting distance from the transmitter to the weather projection station is 80 feet. Any obstacles (such as
walls) will decrease the effective range of the transmission.
Note: The remote transmitter is weather resistant but not waterproof. High humidity and mist will not damage the
transmitter but direct rain will. The maximum range between the transmitter and weather projection station is
80ft. open air (no obstructions). Any resistance (i.e. walls, furniture, etc) between the two will decrease the
effective operating range.
7) The projector will activate and remain on if the Weather Projection Station is plugged in. If only batteries are used, the
projector will only be activated when the SNOOZE button is pressed.
8) See “How to use the projector” instructions for projection direction, etc.

TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE WEATHER
PROJECTION STATION
The Weather Projection Station uses 3 x AA,
IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries. To install and
replace the batteries, please follow the steps
below:
1. Insert finger or other solid object in
the space at the bottom center of the
battery compartment and lift up to
remove the cover.
2. Insert batteries observing the correct
polarity (see marking).
3. Replace compartment cover.
TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE THERMO-
HYGRO SENSOR
The Thermo-hygro sensor uses 2 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries. To install and
replace the batteries, please follow the steps below:
1. Remove the battery cover.

2. Insert the batteries, observing the correct
polarity (see marking).
3. Replace the battery cover on the unit.
Note:
In the event of changing batteries in any of the units,
all units need to be reset by following the setting up
procedures. This is due to a random security code
assigned by the sensor at start-up. This code must be
received and stored by the Weather Projection Station
in the first 3 minutes of power being supplied to the
sensor.
BATTERY CHANGE:
It is recommended to replace the batteries in all units on an annual basis to
ensure optimum accuracy of these units.
Please participate in the preservation of the environment.
Return used batteries to an authorized depot.
SETTING UP
The Weather Projection Station can be either batteries-operated or
powered by the provided AC-DC adapter.

BATTERY INSTALLATION:
1. First, insert the batteries into the Weather Projection Station (see “To
install and replace batteries in the Weather Projection Station”).
Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up
briefly and a short signal tone will sound. Then the ALM1 6:00, the indoor
temperature and humidity, the time as 12:00, the date as WE 1.1., the
moon icon, the weather icons (sun and clouds) will be displayed. If the
indoor temperature and indoor humidity are not displayed after 15
seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 3 minutes before
reinserting them. Once the indoor data is displayed proceed to step 2.
2. Within 4 minutes of activating the Weather Projection Station, place the
batteries into the sensor (see “To install and replace batteries in the
Thermo-hygro Sensor“).
3. After inserting the batteries into the sensor, the Weather Projection
Station will start receiving data from the sensor. The outdoor temperature
and humidity should then be displayed on the Weather Projection Station.
If this does not happen after 3 minutes, the batteries will need to be
removed from both units and reset from step 1.
4. The Weather Projection Station can receive up to 3 remote Outdoor
Thermo-hygro sensors. If you have purchased additional sensors, repeat
from step 3 for all extra sensors. However, ensure that you leave 10
seconds in between the reception of the last sensor and the set-up of the

following sensor. The Weather Projection Station will number the sensors
in the order of set-up, i.e. the first sensor will have the
temperature/humidity displayed with the number 1 against it and so on.
5. With less than 3 sensors received, the Weather Projection Station will try
to pick up the remaining one in approximately another 3 minutes. If 3
sensors are received, the Weather Projection Station will stop further
reception.
6. Once the outdoor temperature and the humidity have been received and
displayed on the Weather Projection Station, the WWVB time code
reception is automatically started. This takes typically between 6-8
minutes in good conditions.
7. If after 10 minutes, the WWVB time has not been received, use the SET
key to manually enter a time initially. The clock will automatically attempt
to receive the WWVB time from 12:00 to 6:00 a.m. for a successful
reception. When WWVB reception signal is successful, the received time
will override the manually set time. The date is also updated with the
received time. The next reception attempt will occur on the following day.
(Please refer to notes on “About WWVB Radio controlled Time” and
“Manual Time Setting”).
Your Weather Projection Station is now operational!
