QUICK SETUP  
Hint: Use good quality Alkaline  
Batteries and avoid rechargeable  
batteries.  
1. Have the indoor  
temperature station and  
remote temperature sensor  
3 to 5 feet apart.  
2. Batteries should be out of  
both units for 10 minutes.  
3. Place the batteries into the  
remote temperature  
sensor first then into the  
indoor temperature station.  
(All remote temperature sensors must be  
started before the indoor temperature  
station)  
4. DO NOT PRESS ANY  
BUTTONS FOR 15  
MINUTES.  
nload from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search A4nd Downl  
In this time the indoor temperature  
station and remote temperature sensor  
will start to talk to each other and the  
display will show both the indoor  
temperature and an outdoor temperature.  
If the indoor temperature station does  
not display both temperatures after the  
10 minutes please retry the set up as  
stated above. After both indoor and  
outdoor temperatures are displayed for  
15 minutes you can place your remote  
temperature sensor outdoors and set  
your time.  
The remote temperature sensor should  
be placed in a dry, shaded area. The  
remote temperature sensor has a range  
of 80 feet. Any walls that the signal  
will have to pass through will reduce  
distance. An outdoor wall or window  
will have up to 20 feet of resistance and  
an interior wall will have up to 10 feet  
nload from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search A5nd Downl  
of resistance. Your distance plus  
resistance should not exceed 80 ft. in a  
straight line.  
NOTE: Fog and mist will not harm  
your remote temperature sensor but  
direct rain must be avoided.  
To complete the set up of your indoor  
temperature station after the 15 minutes  
have passed please follow the steps  
below.  
1. Press and hold the “SET/CH”  
button for 5 seconds.  
Note: A “12h” or “24h” will appear  
to the left of the time. (“12h” for

nload from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search 1A3nd Downl  
seconds.  
C. ADDING ADDITIONAL  
REMOTE TEMPERATURE  
SENSORS (OPTIONAL)  
1. The WS-9117U is able to receive  
signals from 3 different remote  
temperature sensors. Following are  
some brief instructions for the basic  
set-up of remote temperature sensor  
units with the WS-9117U. These extra  
sensors can be purchased through the  
same dealer as this unit, or by  
contacting La Crosse Technology  
directly. A TX6 will monitor  
temperature only, a TX3U will  
monitor temperature and display the  
temperature on its LCD, and the  
TX3UP will monitor the temperature  
via a probe for use in pools, spas, etc.  
Note: When setting up multiple units it  
is important to remove the batteries  
from all existing units in operation,  
then to insert batteries first into all the  
nload from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search 1A4nd Downl  
remote temperature sensor units, and in  
numeric sequence. Second, install  
batteries into the indoor temperature  
station. Transmission problems will  
arise if this is not done correctly and if  
the total time for set-up exceeds 6  
minutes.  
2. It is necessary to remove the batteries  
from all units currently in operation.  
3. Remove the battery covers to all  
remote temperature sensor units.  
4. Place all remote temperature sensor  
units in a numeric sequential order.  
5. In sequential order, install batteries  
(follow the same battery installation  
procedures seen in section “I” of the  
Detailed Set-Up Guide).  
6. Install batteries into the indoor  
temperature station.  
7. Follow the Detailed Set-Up Guide for  
programming and operating  
instructions.

D. VIEWING AND OPERATING  
WITH MULTIPLE REMOTE  
TEMPERATURE SENSOR UNITS  
1. To view the temperature of a different  
remote temperature sensor unit, press  
and release the “SET/CH” button. A  
shift from one “boxed” number to the  
next should be observed in the  
OUTDOOR LCD.  
2. To view the Minimum/Maximum  
temperature: first select from which  
remote temperature sensor to read data  
(indicated by the “boxed” number).  
Pressing and releasing the  
“MIN/MAX” button will toggle  
through the minimum and maximum  
indoor temperature, and the minimum  
and maximum outdoor temperature.  
3. To reset the Minimum/Maximum  
readings, press and hold the  
“MIN/MAX” button for four seconds.  
nload from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search 1A6nd Downl  
V. MOUNTING  
Note: To achieve a true temperature  
reading, avoid mounting in direct sunlight.  
We recommend that you mount the remote  
temperature sensor on an outside North-  
facing wall. The sending range is 80ft;  
obstacles such as walls, concrete, and large  
metal objects will reduce the range. Place  
both units in their desired location before  
permanently mounting.  
A. REMOTE TEMPERATURE  
SENSOR  
1. Remove the mounting bracket from  
the remote temperature sensor  
2. Mount using either screws or  
adhesive tape.  
3. Reattach the remote temperature  
sensor to the mounting bracket.  
B. THE TEMPERATURE STATION  
1. The indoor temperature station comes  
with the table stand already mounted.  
If you wish to use the table-stand, all  
nload from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search 1A7nd Downl  
that is required is to place the indoor  
temperature station in an appropriate  
location.  
2. To wall mount, remove the table  
stand. To do this, pull down on the  
stand from the rear and rotate forward.  
a) Fix a screw (not included) into the  
desired wall, and place the indoor  
temperature station onto the screw  
using the hanging hole on the  
backside. Gently pull the indoor  
temperature station down to lock the  
screw into place.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
NOTE: For problems not solved, please  
contact La Crosse Technology via e-mail or  
phone, or visit our website,  
Problem: The LCD is faint  
Solution: Replace batteries  
Problem: No outdoor temperature is  
displayed.  
Solution:  
1) Remove all batteries, reinsert into remote  
temperature sensor first, and then into the  
indoor temperature station.  
2) Place remote temperature sensor closer to  
the indoor temperature station.  
3) Be sure all batteries are fresh.  
4) Place remote temperature sensor and  
indoor temperature station in position so  
the straight-line signal is not passing  
through more than two or three walls.  
nload from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search 1A9nd Downl  
Problem: Temperatures do not match if  
units are placed next to each other.  
Solution: Each temperature sensor is  
manufactured to be accurate to within 1  
degree plus or minus and under normal  
conditions; so two temperature sensors could  
be as much as 2 degrees different. However,  
the difference can be exaggerated further  
because the temperature sensors are  
designed for different working  
environments. The indoor sensor is less  
responsive to ambient air currents because of  
the shielding effect of the display's case. In  
addition, the case can act as a heat sink to  
absorb and store heat from external sources  
(i.e. handling of the case or radiant heat). In  
addition, the much greater range of the  
outdoor temperature sensor requires a  
different calibration curve than the indoor  
range. Error is usually greater at the extreme  
ends of a range, making it harder to compare  
different ranges with different curves. Under  
non-laboratory conditions, it is difficult to  
compensate for the above factors and obtain  
an accurate comparison.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE  
INSTRUCTIONS  
Extreme temperatures, vibration, and  
shock should be avoided to prevent  
damage to the units.  
Clean displays and units with a soft,  
damp cloth. Do not use solvents or  
scouring agents; they may mark the  
displays and casings.  
Do not submerge in water.  
Do not subject the units to unnecessary  
heat or cold by placing them in the  
oven or freezer.  
Opening the casings invalidates the  
warranty. Do not try to repair the unit.  
Contact La Crosse Technology for  
repairs.
