Batteries

Explanation: Many problems are resolved with fresh batteries of the appropriate

voltage. Many items sent in under warranty, work when tested with fresh batteries.

Batteries manufactured this year will have an expiration date 10 years (or more) in

the future. Battery technology has improved and batteries will maintain voltage

longer in storage. However, the environment the batteries reside in for the 10 years

can deplete the power.

Use Alkaline or Lithium batteries in the remote sensor.

A minimum voltage of 1.48V for each battery is necessary for proper

performance.

Use batteries dated at least six years in advance of the current year. Batteries

dated earlier than six years from now may still work, but may be unstable in

performance.

Good name brand batteries make less noise, which reduces the chance of RF

(radio frequency) interference from the battery compartment.

Atomic Clock Factory Restart

Explanation: The factory restart returns the atomic clock and remote sensor to an

“out-of-the-box” default state and often resolves an issue.

Factory Restart:

1. Remove batteries from remote sensor and atomic clock.

2. Press one of the buttons on the atomic clock at least 20 times to clear all

memory.

3. Verify that the atomic clock is blank before proceeding (there may be lines

painted on the screen that will show when there is no power).

4. Leave both units without power for 15 minutes (very important).

5. Insert fresh batteries into the remote sensor.

6. Press the TX button on the remote sensor to transmit RF signal.

7. Keep the remote sensor 5-10 feet from the atomic clock.

8. When RF connection is established, the temperature will appear on the station.

Allow the remote sensor and atomic clock to sit together for 15 minutes to

establish a strong connection.

9. Do not press buttons for 15 minutes.

For optimum 433MHz transmission, place the remote sensor no more than 300

feet (91 meters, open air) from the atomic clock.

See the section on mounting and distance/resistance/interference for details on

mounting the remote sensor.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. www.lacrossetechnology.com/support Page 3

The TX141-Bv2 remote sensor comes packaged with this atomic clock.

The TX141-Av2 (433MHz) remote sensor is compatible with this atomic clock.

Quick Connect

Explanation: Use the quick connect for an atomic clock and remote sensor that

have been working but lost connection due to interference or low batteries. This is

not the same as a thorough factory reset.

1. Bring the remote sensor and atomic clock together inside, and place the units

5-10 feet apart with nothing between them.

2. Hold the MINUS button for 5 seconds. The remote temperature area will flash.

3. Remove battery cover from the remote sensor and press and release the TX

button to send the signal.

4. Wait for 2 minutes for the remote temperature to appear on the atomic clock.

Factory Restart: If the above procedure does not work, please try the factory

reset.

Remote Temperature Signal Strength

Explanation: The atomic clock will search for the remote temperature remote

sensor for 3 minutes after batteries are installed or when the MINUS button is held

for 3 seconds.

The antenna symbol will flash during reception.

The temperature display will be dashes “---“.

If synchronization fails once, the antenna will lose one bar.

If synchronization fails twice, the antenna will lose two bars.

If RF (radio frequency) reception fails five times, the antenna symbol will show

without bars.

The antenna will show full display with successful RF (radio frequency)

reception.

Dashes show for Remote Temperature

Explanation: Dashes mean the connection is lost between the atomic clock and

the remote sensor.

Batteries often resolve the connection.

Distance/Resistance can cause loss of connection between the remote sensor

and the atomic clock.

Turn the atomic clock 90 degrees towards the remote sensor to provide better

reception. This allows more antenna surface to face the remote sensor signal.

Try the quick connect or factory restart.

Power Requirements

2-AA batteries power the remote sensor.

2-AA batteries power the clock.

We recommend Alkaline batteries for the remote sensor.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. www.lacrossetechnology.com/support Page 4

You may choose to use Lithium batteries for temperatures below -20°F/-28.8°C.

Inaccurate Remote Temperature Reading

Explanation: High remote temperature readings are generally a location issue.

Low remote temperature readings are power related or a sensors going bad.

The remote sensor reads the environment where it is mounted. When mounted

inside the home, it will read inside temperature.

When the remote sensor reads high during the day, but not at night, it is a

positioning problem.

Look for heat sources such as sunlight, door or window frames or reflected heat.

Side-by-side test: Place the remote sensor right next to the atomic clock for 2

hours.

Compare indoor and remote temperature. The temperatures should be within 4

degrees to be within tolerance.

If the remote sensor reads correctly when next to the atomic clock, try a

different location outside.

Intermittent Remote Temperature

Explanation: Intermittent problems are the hardest to resolve. RF (radio

frequency) communication may come and go occasionally. This can be normal in

some environments (e.g. moister climates). If remote sensor signal is lost, please

wait 2-4 hours for the signal to reconnect on its own.

Move the remote sensor to a closer location.

Distance/Resistance can cause loss of remote sensor signal.

Check Batteries.

Freezer test: Confirm the atomic clock is reading the correct remote sensor (not a

neighbor’s sensor). Place the remote sensor in the freezer for an hour and watch

the temperature drop on the atomic clock.

Indoor distance test: Please complete the Restart with remote sensor and atomic

clock 5-10 feet apart and inside to establish a strong connection.

After 15 minutes, if there is a reading in the remote temperature area, move the

remote sensor to another room with one wall between the remote sensor and

the atomic clock.

Observe to see if the temperature remains on consistently for 1 hour.

If the temperature remains on while in the house, then it is likely a

distance/resistance issue.

Move the remote sensor to different locations outside to find a location where

the temperature reading will hold.

Remote Temperature is stuck or HH.H, LL.L

Explanation: These symbols are error messages indicating the remote sensor is

outside of its readable range.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. www.lacrossetechnology.com/support Page 5

Check Batteries.Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this

reading.

Replace remote sensor.

Note: The last remote reading may remain (not change) for several hours when

connection is lost. The remote temperature reading will flash when the connection

is first lost or intermittent.

Remote sensor drains batteries quickly

Test a new set of alkaline batteries. Write down the date of installation and the

voltage of the batteries.

When the batteries fail, please note the date and voltage again.

Check the distance and resistance between the remote sensor and atomic clock.

Remote sensors at the end of the range may work while batteries are fresh but

not after they drain a bit.

Check for leaking batteries, which may damage the remote sensor.

Battery life is over 24 months when using reputable battery brands for both

Alkaline and Lithium batteries.

Remote sensor fell. The sensor no longer works

Explanation: If there is no physical damage to the remote sensor, the fall may not

have caused internal damage. A fall can shock the remote sensor or the batteries in

the remote sensor. Batteries that have fallen on a hard surface may be damaged

and unable to function properly.

Complete a Restart with fresh batteries.

Use Batteries dated at least six years in advance of the current year. Batteries

dated earlier than six years from now may still work, but may be unstable in

performance.

Note: A remote sensor that has fallen into puddle, snow, or other standing water,

will likely have water damage and need to be replaced. Remote sensors are water

resistant, not waterproof.

Temperature has fallen in the past 3 hours.

HI | LO Temperature readings

Explanation: The atomic clock shows the daily HI | LO temperatures each day

starting at midnight (12:00 AM). The atomic clock automatically resets the HI | LO

temperatures at midnight (12:00 AM).

Press and release the PLUS button to view minimum then maximum temperatures.

Mounting/Positioning Remote sensor

First: Place the remote sensor in the desired shaded location and the atomic clock

in the home. Wait approximately 1 hour before permanently mounting the remote

sensor to ensure that there is proper reception.

POSITION

Outdoor:

Protect the remote sensor from standing rain or snow and from the overhead

sun, which can cause it to read incorrectly.

Mounting under an eave or deck rail works well.

If you choose, you can construct a small roof or box for the remote sensor. Be

sure a box has vents.

Mount the remote sensor on the North side where to prevent sun from causing

incorrect readings.

Mount at least 6 feet in the air for a strong RF (radio frequency) signal.

Do not mount the remote sensor on a metal fence. This significantly reduces the

effective range.

Remote sensors are water resistant, not waterproof.

Indoor:

Mount the Remote Sensor indoors to monitor high mold risk areas like in a crawl

space or a basement.

Indoor or Outdoor:

Mount remote temperature sensor vertically.

Avoid more than one wall between the remote sensor and the atomic clock.

The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 300 feet (91 meters).

Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal objects can

reduce the range.

Do not mount near electrical wires, transmitting antennas or other items that

will interfere with the signal.

RF (radio frequency) signals do not travel well through moisture or dirt.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. www.lacrossetechnology.com/support Page 7

MOUNT

Option 1:

Install one mounting screw (not included) into a wall.

Place the remote sensor onto the screw (hanging hole on the backside).

Gently pull down to lock the screw in place.

Option 2:

Insert the mounting screw through the front of the remote sensor and into the

wall.

Tighten the screw to snug (do not over tighten).

Position Atomic clock

The atomic clock has a pull out stand to sit on a desk or table or can be wall

mounted.

Place within range of the remote sensor.

The maximum transmitting range in open air is 300 feet (91 meters).

Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal objects can

reduce the range.

Choose a location 6 feet or more from electronics such as cordless phones,

wireless gaming systems, televisions, microwaves, routers, baby monitors, etc.,

which can prevent signal reception.

Be aware of electrical wires and plumbing within a wall. This will interfere with

RF (radio frequency) signal reception.

Distance/Resistance/Interference

Distance:

The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 300 feet (91 meters)

between the remote sensor and the atomic clock. This range is in open air with

ideal conditions.

Consider what is in the signal path between the atomic clock and the remote

sensor.

Avoid placing electronics in the signal path between the atomic clock and the

remote sensor.

Resistance:

Obstacles such as walls, floors, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal

objects can reduce the range.

When considering the distance between the remote sensor and the atomic clock

(300 feet open air), cut that distance in half for each wall, window, tree, bush or

other obstruction in the signal path.

Closer is better.

Windows reflect the RF (radio frequency) signal.

Metal absorbs the signal and reduces the range.

Stucco has a metal mesh that absorbs the signal.

Do not mount the remote sensor on a metal fence. This significantly reduces the

effective range.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. www.lacrossetechnology.com/support Page 8

Interference:

Consider items in the signal path between the remote sensor and the atomic

clock.

Sometimes a simple relocation of the remote sensor or the atomic clock will

correct the interference.

Windows can reflect the radio signal.

Metal will absorb the RF (radio frequency) signal.

Stucco has a metal mesh that absorbs signal.

Avoid transmitting antennas: (ham radios, emergency dispatch centers, airports,

military bases, etc.)

Electrical wires (utilities, cable, etc.)

Vegetation is full of moisture and reduces signal.

It is difficult for RF (radio frequency) signal to travel through a hill.

Atomic clock

Power Requirements

2-AA alkaline batteries may be used.

12-Hour time format

Time can display in 12-hour only

Fahrenheit/Celsius

Use the program menu to switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius.

Moon Phase

The moon phase is based on the lunar calendar and the year, month and date set.

Most Internet moon phase calculations are based on the lunar calendar.

Waxing indicates growing or expanding illumination and happens after a new

moon.

Waning indicates decreasing illumination and occurs after a full moon.

Crescent refers to the moon being less than half illuminated. Crescents can be

waning or waxing.

Gibbous describes a moon phase when more than half is illuminated. Gibbous

can be waxing or waning.

New Moon occurs when the moon is between the earth and sun, so the

illuminated portion of the moon is on the back side facing the sun and we cannot

see it. After a new moon, the illuminated portion will increase or wax until the

full moon occurs.

Full Moon occurs when the earth, moon and sun are in approximate alignment,

with the moon and the sun on opposite sides of the earth. The illuminated

portion of the moon faces the earth, giving us complete visibility of one side of

the entire moon. After a full moon, the illuminated portion will decrease or wane

until the new moon occurs.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. www.lacrossetechnology.com/support Page 9

First Quarter and Last Quarter moons occur when the moon is at a 90 degree

angle to the earth and sun. We see half of the moon illuminated and the other

half is in shadow.

Dashes, HH.H, LL.L or stuck Indoor Temperature

Explanation: These symbols are error messages indication the indoor sensor is

outside of its readable range. For indoor readings, this is generally a power related

issue.

Batteries may be overpowered or underpowered. Remove batteries from the

atomic clock.

Press any button 20 times. Leave the atomic clock unpowered for 1-2 hours.

Install fresh Alkaline batteries with correct polarity.

If the indoor temperature is still shows dashes, HH.H or LL.L, the atomic clock

may need replacement.

Inaccurate Indoor Temperature Reading

Explanation: When the indoor temperature is inaccurate, it is often due to the

location of the display or overpowered/under powered batteries. You can test the

accuracy at you home.

Side-by-side test: Bring the remote sensor in the house and place it next to the

atomic clock for 2 hours.

Compare indoor and remote temperature. The temperature should be within 4

degrees to be within tolerance.

Look for heat sources such as sunlight, door or window frames or reflected heat

or cold near the atomic clock.
