FAQ WS-9001U-IT with TX38U-IT
Congratulations on purchasing this state-of-the-art
Weather Station.
Remember, for your Weather Station to work properly,
it must be started correctly, using good quality alkaline
batteries, and the time must be set manually.
Before calling for technical support (1-888-211-1923),
you may be able to correct the problem by first per-
forming a Proper Restart, an Initial Set-up, and prob-
lem-solving with the trouble-shooting guide.

FIRST THINGS FIRST, OR BATTERIES, BATTERIES,
BATTERIES
Batteries are the number one warranty issue that we
have. We recommend new, plain alkaline batteries for
our products.
A good alkaline battery will have an expiration date
printed on it. Alkaline batteries are dated six to seven
years beyond the current year. Therefore a battery with
an expiration date three years beyond the current year
has already been sitting on a shelf for three to four years.
Consider what happens to your car battery if you let it
sit unused for three to four years.
If you have a voltmeter and your older batteries test to
1.48 or better, they should power our products. New
plain alkaline batteries often test to 1.6 or better.
Use good quality alkaline batteries with an expiration
date of at least six years into the future or newer. If you
are using questionable batteries, be sure they mea-
sure at least 1.48 on a voltmeter. Generic or store
brand batteries, and batteries labeled super, ultra, max,
heavy duty, lithium and rechargeable should be
avoided. These batteries provide their power at differ-
ent rates than plain alkaline batteries. This may cause
problems, especially with the display unit. It is not al-
ways a low battery that causes problems. It may be an
overpowered battery.
- Proper Restart (Quick Set-up Guide)
In the event of installing or changing batteries in any of
the units, all units need to be reset by following the
setup procedures.
Have both the indoor display unit and the outdoor trans-
mitter (sensor) inside and five to six feet apart with
nothing between them.
Remove all power from both units.
Press any one of the buttons on the display unit at least
20 times to clear all memory. Verify that the display is
blank before proceeding. Let the units sit for five min-
utes before installing batteries.
Batteries: Use good quality alkaline batteries with an
expiration date of at least six years into the future or
newer. If you are using questionable batteries, be sure
they measure at least 1.48 on a voltmeter. Generic or
store brand batteries, and batteries labeled super, ultra,
max, heavy duty, lithium and rechargeable should be
avoided. These batteries provide their power at a dif-
ferent rate than plain alkaline batteries. This may cause
problems, especially with the display unit. It is not al-
ways a low battery that causes problems. It may be an
overpowered battery.
Place the batteries into the outdoor remote sensor first,
making sure they are installed according to the dia-
gram in the battery compartment. Next, taking care
not to press any buttons, install the batteries in the in-
door display unit according to the diagram in the bat-
tery compartment.
Do not press any buttons for at least 15 minutes after
installing the batteries. This is because the sensor
assigns a random security code at start-up, and this
code must be received and stored by the indoor sta-
tion in the first few minutes of power supplying.
A temperature reading should be showing on your dis-
play in the “outdoor” portion of your display. Because
the sensor detects the temperature at the location
where it is placed, and because the setup generally
takes place indoors, your indoor and outdoor tempera-
ture will match within a couple of degrees.
After you have completed this setup and placed your
sensor outside, the temperature reading will adjust to
the outdoor temperature. The temperature will be dis-
played on your indoor unit.
TROUBLE-SHOOTING GUIDE
If you continue to experience problems with your Tem-
perature Station after a Proper Restart, please see if
your problem is described in this Trouble-Shooting
Guide and follow the suggestions to attempt to correct
the problem before contacting technical support.
