The TX9U temperature/humidity sensor is used in conjunction with the TX15U rain sensor to gather and transmit information to your
wireless weather station. The TX9U temperature/humidity sensor measures the outdoor temperature and humidity. This sensor also
transmits all outdoor weather information from the TX15U rain sensor to the display indoors.

QUICK SET-UP GUIDE
Hint: Use good quality Alkaline Batteries and avoid rechargeable batteries.
1. Have the indoor weather station, remote temperature/humidity sensor and wind speed sensor 3 to 5 feet apart.
2. Insert the telephone plug (RJ-11) from the wind speed sensor into the receptacle on the remote temperature/humidity
sensor.
3. Batteries should be out of both the indoor weather station and remote temperature/humidity sensor units for 10 minutes.
4. Place the batteries into the remote temperature/humidity sensor first then into the indoor weather station.
5. DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS FOR 15 MINUTES.
In this time the indoor weather station and remote temperature/humidity sensor will start to talk to each other and the display will
show the indoor temperature/humidity, outdoor temperature/humidity and wind speed. If the indoor weather station does not display
all information after the 15 minutes please retry the set up as stated above. After all information has been displayed for 15 minutes
you can place your sensors outdoors and set your time.
Important Notes on Set-up and Operation
•
The Remote Temperature/Humidity Sensor is both the source of power for both outdoor sensors and source of transmission for
all remote sensor data.
•
The remote temperature/humidity sensor should be placed in a dry, shaded area.
•
Fog and mist will not harm your remote temperature/humidity sensor but direct rain must be avoided.
•
Direct rainfall will not harm the wind speed sensor.
•
The remote temperature/humidity sensor has a range of 300 feet. Any walls that the signal will have to pass through will
reduce distance. An outdoor wall or window can have up to 30 feet of resistance and an interior wall can have up to 20 feet
of resistance. Your distance plus resistance should not exceed 300 ft. in a straight line.
•
The remote temperature/humidity sensor transmits a signal every minute. After the batteries have been installed, the indoor
weather station will search for the signal for a duration of 15 minutes. If there is no temperature or humidity reading in the
OUTDOOR LCD or wind speed in the WIND SPEED LCD after 15 minutes, make sure the units are within range of each
other, or repeat the battery installation procedure.
•
If a button is pressed before the indoor weather station receives the signal from the remote temperature/humidity sensor, you
will need to follow the battery installation procedure again.
To complete the set up of your new wireless weather station after the 15 minutes have passed please follow the steps that follow in the

- Page 1 The TX9U temperature/humidity sensor is used in conjunction with the TX15U rain sensor to gather and transmit information to your wireless weather station. The TX9U temperature/humidity sensor measures the outdoor temperature and humidity. This sensor also transmits all outdoor weather information from the TX15U rain sensor to the display indoors.
- Page 2 DETAILED SET-UP GUIDE BATTERY INSTALLATION The first step to powering up the weather station is to insert the connector (RJ11) at the end of the wire attached to the wind speed sensor to the remote temperature/humidity sensor. Please ensure when doing this that the connector is inserted with the proper orientation.
- Page 3 MOUNTING Note: Before permanently mounting ensure that the indoor weather station is able to receive WWVB signals from the desired location. Also, extreme and sudden changes in temperature will decrease the accuracy of the indoor weather station, and changes in elevation will result with inaccurate weather forecasting for the next 12 to 24 hours. These changes will require a 12 to 24 hour wait before obtaining reliable data.
- Page 4 THE REMOTE WIND SPEED SENSOR The remote wind speed sensor can be mounted several ways: • With the use of screws • Using nylon straps • Using the U-shaped bold A. MOUNTING WITH SCREWS 1) Unlock the mounting bracket from the remote wind speed sensor leaving the wire going through the bracket.

Solution: 1) Wait overnight for signal. 2) Be sure indoor weather stat controlled clocks. Remove batteries fo r five minutes, reinsert and leave the unit alone overnight without pressing buttons. 4) If there are still problems, contact La Crosse Technology.
