V30 / 328-10618 Extra Sensor Area Questions / Troubleshooting
Explanation: The Extra Sensor area is a place to show up to 4 additional, compatible, sensors on the station itself. These sensors may also be scanned to your La Crosse View App.
So, if you want extra Temperature/Humidity sensors, you can display them here.
If you do not have or want additional sensors, this area will show you the Barometric Pressure from your weather station’s internal Pressure Sensor.
Optional Extra Sensors: Up to 4 additional Thermo-Hygro, Wind Speed, Water Leak or any combination of these sensors can read to the EXTRA SENSOR area of your display. Simply press and release the EXTRA SENSOR button to view these sensors or turn on Auto Scroll.
Note: The Extra Sensor area on this station cannot read Rain sensors.
