QUICK SETUP
Hint: Use good quality Alkaline Batteries; avoid rechargeable batteries.
1.
Have the Wireless Temperature Station and temperature sensor 3 to 5 feet
apart.
2.
3.
Batteries should be out of both units for 5 minutes.
Place the batteries into the Temperature sensor first and next into the
Wireless Temperature Station.
4.
DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS FOR 5 MINUTES.
In this time the Wireless Temperature Station and the temperature sensor will begin
to communicate with each other, and the display will show both the indoor
temperature and an outdoor temperature. If the Wireless Temperature Station does
not display both temperatures after the 5 minutes, please retry the set up as stated
above. After both indoor and outdoor temperatures are displayed for 5 minutes you
can place your temperature sensor outdoors, and set your time.
The temperature sensor should be placed in a dry, shaded area (ex: under the eve
of a roof). The temperature sensor has a range of 330 feet. Any walls that the
signal will have to pass through will reduce distance. An outdoor wall or window will
have up to 20 feet of resistance and an interior wall will have up to 10 feet of
resistance. Your distance plus resistance should not exceed 330 feet in a straight
line.

NOTE: Fog and mist will not harm your temperature sensor, but direct rain must be
avoided.
DETAILED SETUP GUIDE
BATTERY INSTALLATION - When one Temperature sensor is being used
1.
First, insert the batteries to the Temperature sensor (see “Temperature
sensor” below).
2.
Within 2 minutes of powering up the sensor, insert the batteries to the
Temperature Station (see “Wireless Temperature station” below). Once the
batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly. Following
the indoor temperature and the time as 12:00 will be displayed. If they are
not shown in LCD after 60 seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least
60 seconds before reinserting them. Once the indoor data is displayed user
may proceed to the next step.
3.
After the batteries are inserted, the Temperature Station will start receiving
data signal from the sensor. The outdoor temperature should then be
displayed on the Temperature Station. If this does not happen after 2
minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and reset from
step 1 and the signal reception icon is no longer shown.

*When the signal is successfully received by the Temperature Station, the
icon will be switched on. (If not successful, the icon will not be shown in LCD)
So the user can easily see whether the last reception was successful (icon
on) or not (icon off). On the other hand, the short blinking of the icon shows
that a reception is currently taking place.
If the signal reception is not successful on the first frequency (915MHz) for
45 seconds, the frequency is changed to 920MHz and the learning is tried
another 45 seconds. If still not successful the reception is tried for 45
seconds on 910MHz. This will also be done for re-synchronization.

maximum data of all channels and the indoor sensor to the current values in a
single action.
ADDING ADDITIONAL REMOTE SENSORS (OPTIONAL)
The WS-9021U is able to receive signals from 2 additional temperature sensors .
The following are instructions for the set-up of temperature sensor units with the
WS-9021U. These extra sensors can be purchased through the same dealer as this
unit.

Remove all the batteries from the receiver and sensor(s) and wait 60
seconds. During these 60 seconds, press any button 20 times to discharge
any excess power.
2.
3.

LCD will light up briefly. Following the indoor temperature and the time as
12:00 will be displayed. If they are not shown in LCD after 60 seconds,
remove the batteries and wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting
them.

should then be displayed on the Temperature station. If this does not happen
after 2 minute, the batteries will need to be removed from all the units and
reset from step 1.
7.
Insert the batteries to the third sensor as soon as the "channel 2" icon and
outdoor data are displayed on the Temperature station. Then within 2
minutes, the channel 3 outdoor data from the third sensor will be displayed
and the channel icon will shift back to "1" once the third sensor is

successfully received. If this is not happen, user shall restart the setting up
from step 1.
NOTE: You must insert the batteries into the third sensor within 45 seconds of
reception of the second sensor.
IMPORTANT: Transmission problems will arise if the setting for multiple sensors is
not followed as described above. Should transmission problems occur, it is
necessary to remove the batteries from all units and start again the set-up from
step 1.
VIEWING AND OPERATING WITH MULTIPLE REMOTE SENSOR UNITS
1.
To view the temperature of a different temperature sensor unit, press the
set/ch button to select to display the outdoor temperature of the different
sensors. A shift from one channel number to the next should be observed on
the right side of the OUTDOOR LCD.
2.
To view the Minimum/Maximum temperature: first select from which
temperature sensor to read data (indicated by the channel number).
Pressing and releasing the min/max/+ button will toggle through the minimum
and maximum indoor temperature, and the minimum and maximum outdoor
temperature.

MOUNTING
Note: To achieve a true temperature reading, avoid mounting in direct sunlight. We
recommend that you mount the temperature sensor on an outside North-facing wall
(under the eve of a house is ideal). The remote temperature sensor should be
placed in a dry, shaded area. The remote temperature sensor has a range of 330
feet. Keep in mind that the 330 feet is in open air with no obstructions and that
radio waves DO NOT curve around objects. Actual transmission range will vary
depending on what is in the path of the signal. Each obstruction (roof, walls, floors,
ceilings, thick trees, etc.) will effectively cut signal range in half.
Example: A wireless weather station receiver with a 330 feet range is mounted on
an interior wall, so that the signal has to pass through one interior wall, one exterior
wall, and across the 10 foot width of the room between the 2 walls. The first wall
will reduce the range to 165 feet, and the second wall will reduce the range to 87
feet. Factoring in the 10 foot room, this leaves a maximum of 77 feet of remaining
signal range.
This allowance is typically enough for a frame wall with non-metallic siding; however
certain materials can reduce range even further. Metal siding, stucco, and some
types of glass can reduce signal range by as much as ¾ or more, compared to the

½ reduction typical of most obstructions. It is possible to receive a signal through
these materials, however maximum range will be much less due to their tendency to
absorb or reflect a much larger portion of the sensor’s signal
.
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The Temperature has been designed to be hanged on a wall or free standing.
For Free standing:
Simply attached the stand to the bottom of the unit and
place onto a flat surface.

To wall mount:
1.
Remove the mounting bracket from the
temperature sensor.
2.
3.
Mount using either screws or adhesive tape.
Reattach the temperature sensor to the
mounting bracket.
WIRELESS TEMPERATURE STATION
1.
The Wireless Temperature Station comes with the table
stand attached to the back of the Receiver. If you wish to
use the table-stand, simply place the Wireless
Temperature Station in an appropriate location, and pull
out on the attached stand.

2.
To wall mount, push the table stand flat against the Wireless Temperature
Station (if it isn’t already flat). Fix a screw (not included) into the desired wall,
and place the Wireless Temperature Station onto the screw using the
hanging hole on the backside. Gently pull the Wireless Temperature Station
down to lock the screw into place.
TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTE: For problems not solved, please contact La Crosse Technology via e-mail or
Problem: The LCD is faint

Using good quality alkaline batteries, place the batteries back into the
outdoor temperature sensor; making sure they are installed according to the
diagrams in the battery compartment.
5)
6)
7)
