Can I Change Batteries In My Sensors Without Losing Data; Factory Reset: How Do I Factory Reset My Station - La Crosse Technology S75617 Faqs

• Consider the signal path from your station to each sensor as a straight line.
• Consider the distance the station is from other electronics in the home.
Resistance:
• Each obstacle: walls, windows, vegetation, stucco, concrete, and large metal objects will
reduce the effective signal range by about one-half.
• Mounting your sensors on a metal fence can significantly reduce the effective signal range.
Interference:
• Consider electronics in the signal path between the sensors and your station.
• Simple relocation of the sensors or the station may correct an interference issue.
• Windows can reflect the radio signal.
• Metal will absorb the RF (radio frequency) signal.
• Stucco held to the wall by a metal mesh will cause interference.
• Transmitting antennas from: ham radios, emergency dispatch centers, airports, military
bases, etc. may cause interference.
• Electrical wires, utilities, cables, etc. may create interference if too close.

data or require you to power down your station.
• When Battery Indicator shows in the Outdoor Sensor area, replace batteries in your Outdoor
Sensor.
• Then hold the +/OUT button for 3 seconds and your station will search for your sensor.
• When changing the batteries in the color station, continue using the power cord. After
replacing the batteries, no other action is needed. The batteries in the station only maintain
time/date in the event of a power outage.
