TROUBLESHOOTING
HOW DO I CHANGE BATTERIES IN MY SENSORS WITHOUT LOSING DATA?
We designed this station for convenience, so that a simple change of batteries does not lose
data or require you to power down your station.
If you have a low battery icon on your station, you need to replace the batteries in the
sensor or in the station as indicated.
Simply install fresh batteries into your sensor then hold the SENSOR button for 3 seconds
and your station will search for your sensors.
When changing the batteries in the station, continue using the power cord. After replacing
the batteries, no other action is needed. The batteries in the station only maintain time/date
in the event of a power outage.
BAR CODE: WHAT ARE THE BARCODES AND ID NUMBERS
ON MY SENSORS AND ON MY STATION?
Did you know that your sensors will “lock” into your station?
This ensures that the sensor readings are from your sensor and not a neighbors’.
When you press and release your SENSOR button you will see your station ID, your
thermo-hygro sensor ID, and your wind speed sensor ID and your rain sensor ID.
The sensor ID on the station should match your first six numbers on the barcode of that
sensor.
These sensors will remain locked to your station until you manually delete them.
The barcodes are also important identifiers for the La Crosse View™ app if you choose to
connect.
