Changing Batteries - La Crosse Technology WS-2310 Operation Manual

reception levels. Again, reception and interference levels will greatly
depend on the surrounding environment at your point of mounting.
Note:
It is important to keep all the connected extension heads away from
rain, moisture and other extreme weather conditions as exposure can
cause short circuits and damage to this item.

Changing batteries:

Battery change only in the thermo-hygro-sensor:
1. Open the battery cover
2. Remove the old batteries and insert with new ones of the
recommended type and replace the cover
Once the sensor is powered up, press and hold the PLUS (+) key for
approx. 2 seconds in the normal display mode, the base station will
sound a short beep and synchronize to the sensor otherwise no
weather data will be received.
Battery change only in the base station:
1. Connect power adaptor to base station and power outlet.
2. Open the battery cover located at the back of the base station.
3. Remove the old batteries, insert with new ones of the
recommended type and replace the cover
This method of battery replacement will result in no loss of MIN/MAX
and history data. However in case of possible power failure, the base
station will lose the MIX/MAX and all weather data recordings and will
need to be synchronized to the sensors again by pressing the PLUS
(+) key for 2 seconds.
Note:
When batteries require replacement for the base station, the low
battery indicator will light up on the LCD.
Please participate in the preservation of the environment
by properly disposing of all used-up batteries and
accumulators at designated disposal points.
dispose of batteries in a fire as this may cause explosion,
risk of fire or leakage of dangerous chemicals and fumes
19. Interferences and problems with operation
Problem & cause
Distance between
transmitters and
receiver too long.
High shielding
materials between the
units (thick walls, steel,
concrete, isolating
aluminum foil and etc.)
Interference from other
sources (e.g. wireless
radio, headset,
speaker, etc. operating
on the same frequency)
No Reception after
adding extension
cables
Reception then no
reception - loss of
transmission signal
from the sensor to the
base station
Never
Remedy
Reduce distance between transmitters
and receiver to receive signal
Find a different location for sensors
and/or receiver. See also Item
'Transmission Range' below.
Find a different location for the sensors
and/or base station. Neighbors using
electrical devices operating on the
433MHz signal frequency can also
cause interference with reception
Find a new location for the sensors
and/or base station. Recommend not
adding more than 32ft extension
cables between units to the existing
cable lengths, as this will increase the
chance of data reception problems.
Press and hold the PLUS (+) key for 2
seconds to synchronize the base
station to the sensors for weather data
reception. If still no signal, then
change the sensor batteries and
synchronize the units again.
