La Crosse Technology TX10U User Manual

TX10U Rain Sensor

The TX10U rain sensor is used in conjunction with the TX15U wind
sensor and TX8U temperature/ humidity sensor to gather and transmit
information to the wireless weather station. The TX15U wind sensor
measures the wind speed and direction and sends the information to
the TX8U temperature/ humidity sensor. This sensor then transmits all
outdoor weather information from the three outdoor sensors to the
display indoors.

SETTING UP
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. When seated properly you will hear the connector ‘click’ in
place.

A. REMOTE TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY

1. Remove the mounting bracket and humidity hood.

2. Remove the battery cover by sliding the cover down.

3. Observing the correct polarity install 2 AA batteries.
The batteries will fit tightly (to avoid start-up problems
make sure they do not spring free).

4. Replace the battery cover by sliding upwards. Be
sure battery cover is on securely.

5. Replace the humidity hood.

B. INDOOR WEATHER STATION

1. Remove the battery cover. To do this, insert a solid
object in the space provided at the lower-central
