INVENTORY OF CONTENTS 1. The indoor Figure 1 temperature station (Figure 1) 2. The remote temperature sensor (TX6U) and mounting bracket. (Figure 2) 3. Mounting hardware. 4. Instruction Manual and Warranty Card.
ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT (not included) 1. 1 Philips screwdriver. 2. 2 Fresh AAA 1.5V batteries. (for the indoor temperature station) 3. 2 Fresh AA 1.5V batteries.
QUICK SETUP Hint: Use good quality Alkaline Batteries and avoid rechargeable batteries. 1. 2. 3. 4. Have the indoor temperature station and remote temperature sensor 3 to 5 feet apart. Batteries should be out of all units for 10 minutes. Place the batteries into the remote temperature sensor first, then into the indoor temperature station. (All remote temperature sensors must be started before the indoor weather stations) DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS FOR 15 MINUTES.
In this time the indoor temperature station and remote temperature sensor will start to talk to each other and the display will show both the indoor temperature and an outdoor temperature. If the indoor temperature station does not display both the indoor temperature and the outdoor temperature after the 15 minutes please retry the set up as shown on page five.
Notes on Outdoor Sensor Placement The remote temperature sensor should be placed in a dry, shaded area. Fog and mist will not harm your remote temp/humidity sensor but direct rain must be avoided. The remote temperature sensor has a range of 80 feet. Any walls that the signal will have to pass through will reduce distance. An outdoor wall or window can have up to 30 feet of resistance and an interior wall can have up to 20 feet of resistance. Your distance plus resistance should not exceed 80 ft.
To complete the set up of your indoor temperature station after the 15 minutes have passed, please follow the steps below. 1. Press and hold the “SET” button for 5 seconds. Note: A “12h” or “24h” will appear on the top line. (“12h” for AM/PM, “24h” for military time) a. To change between “12h” and “24h” press and release the “RESET/+” button. b. When you have your choice shown on the display press and release the “SET” button once. 2. Degree Fahrenheit will now show. a.
3. 4. and release the “SET” button once. An hour will now be flashing. a. Press and release the “RESET/+” button until the correct hour is shown. Note: When in the 12h mode “PM” is displayed in the upper left corner of the display between noon and midnight. During the AM hours this area will be blank. b. When the correct hour is shown, press and release the “SET” button once. A minute will now be flashing. a. Press and release the “RESET/+” button until the correct minutes are displayed.

additional remote sensor units with the WS-7136U. These extra sensors can be purchased through the same dealer as this unit, or by contacting La Crosse Technology directly. A TX6U will monitor temperature only, a TX3U will monitor temperature and display the temperature on its LCD, the TX3UP will monitor the temperature via a probe for use in pools, spas, etc.
1. It is necessary to remove the batteries from all units currently in operation. 2. Remove the battery covers to all remote sensor units. 3. Place all remote sensor units in a numeric sequential order. 4. In sequential order, install batteries (follow the same battery installation procedures seen in section “I” of the Detailed Set-Up Guide) into the remote sensors. 5. Install batteries into the indoor temperature station. 6. Follow the Detailed Set-Up Guide for programming and operating instructions.
D. VIEWING AND OPERATING WITH MULTIPLE REMOTE SENSOR UNITS 1. To view the temperature of a different remote sensor unit, press and release the “CH” button. A shift from one “boxed” number to the next should be observed in the OUTDOOR LCD. 2. To view the Minimum/Maximum temperature: first select from which remote temperature sensor to read data from (indicated by the “boxed” number).
MOUNTING Note: To achieve a true temperature reading, avoid mounting in direct sunlight. We recommend that you mount the remote temperature sensor on an outside Northfacing wall. The sending range is 80ft; obstacles such as walls, concrete, and large metal objects will reduce the range. Place both units in their desired location temporarily to test reception capability before permanently mounting. A. REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSOR 1. Remove the mounting bracket from the remote temperature sensor. 2.
B. THE TEMPERATURE STATION 1. The indoor temperature station comes with the table stand already mounted. If you wish to use the table-stand, all that is required is to place the indoor weather station in your desired location. 2. To wall mount: a) Remove the table stand by pulling down on the stand from the rear and rotating forward. b) Fix a screw (not included) into the desired wall. c) Place the indoor weather station onto the screw using the hanging hole on the backside.
TROUBLESHOOTING NOTE: For problems not solved, please contact La Crosse Technology via e-mail or phone, or visit our website, www.lacrossetechnology.com Problem: The LCD is faint Solution: Replace batteries Problem: No outdoor temperature is displayed. Solution: 1) First try to re-establish communication between the remote sensor and indoor temperature station by moving both units to within three to five feet of each other. Wait about ten minutes and then check for a temperature.
3) Once the system has been reset and you have a temperature reading from the sensor, temporarily place the remote temperature sensor in the previous location. Note: If there is an outdoor temperature displayed when the two units are close together there was either too much distance between the two units previously or some type of interference that was causing poor reception.
Problem: Temperatures do not match if units are placed next to each other. Solution: Each temperature sensor is manufactured to be accurate to within 2 degree plus or minus and under normal conditions. It is possible for two temperature sensors to be as much as 4 degrees different. The difference can be exaggerated further because the temperature sensors are designed for different working environments.
compensate for the above factors and obtain an accurate comparison. MAINTENANCE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS • • • • • Extreme temperatures, vibration, and shock should be avoided to prevent damage to the units. Clean displays and units with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use solvents or scouring agents; they may mark the displays and casings. Do not submerge in water. Do not subject the units to unnecessary heat or cold by placing them in the oven or freezer. Opening the casings invalidates the warranty.
