1) Install the Software

Insert the CD, click the “Weather FXi Setup Wizard” button and follow

the onscreen directions to install the Weather FXi software on your PC

(Windows 2000 or later, with an “always on” internet connection).

2) Connect the Transmitter

Connect the USB Transmitter to your PC’s USB port.

3) Launch the Weather FXi application, Set Locations and Units

Double click the “Weather FXI” icon on your desktop. When the application

opens, move the cursor into the far left box at the top, then click “Edit

Location” when it appears. Set your current location by selecting from the

four drop down lists, then click “Save”. Follow the same process to setup

any or all of the remaining four location boxes. Next, click the “Settings”

button and set your preferences for temperature, wind speed units

and time format, then click “Save”. In the main Weather FXi application

window, you can click in any of the other “location boxes” you set up to

see the forecast for that city.

4) Setup the Receiver Unit (Remote Display)

Insert 4xAA batteries into the Receiver, or connect its supplied AC

adapter. The Receiver’s display initializes and reads “Searching for PC”
(press the

SEARCH button on the back of the unit if this does not appear).

Attach the easel stand to the Receiver and place it near the PC so you can

see its display while you complete the setup.

5) Transmit Weather Data from the PC Application to the Receiver

Click “Send to Receiver” on the Weather FXi program window. The red

LED on the USB Transmitter will glow, then blink while data is transferred
from the PC software to the Receiver. The Receiver will indicate “

PC

FOUND-PLS WAIT 5 MINS

” When the Transmitter’s light stops flashing,

check to see that the Receiver’s display matches the weather data shown

on the PC screen. Make sure the location box selected on the Weather

FXi application and the “Favorite” location # on the Receiver display are

the same (use the

+/- buttons on the Receiver to change locations). Also

be sure the units for temperature, wind speed, etc. are set the same

(click “Settings” on the software screen, press UNITS on back of the Receiver

and change them using the

+/- buttons if necessary-press UNITS again to

change other displayed units). Keep the Weather FXi application running

in the background and keep your PC powered on and connected to

the internet, so the Receiver can provide you with the latest up-to-date

forecast information.
