DESCRIPTION
Backyard sensors with a wireless transmission range of 400 feet will transmit wind, weather, and home conditions to an easy-to-read LCD display inside your home. You can easily determine if it is safe to leave your plants outside by setting high and low temperature alarms. This hub does more than just display your home’s current conditions in real-time; it also sends you notifications so you can make adjustments to ensure your family’s comfort. Enhance your experience with the La Crosse View app, available for free on all major platforms. Keep tabs on things at home from the convenience of your mobile device and receive instant notifications. Get notified immediately, review past activity logs, and alert your loved ones of critical updates.
Once your station is synced with the La Crosse View app, you’ll be able to see the highs and lows expected for the day, as well as any precipitation, extra forecast icons, and other local weather details provided by AccuWeather. You’re not keen of La Crosse View, are you? Not at all! Your station can be used without a Wi-Fi connection and its enhanced functions are completely optional. The integrated rain bucket automatically empties itself, allowing you to keep track of rainfall history. The La Crosse View app provides a flexible means of system expansion and personalization. Research the La Crosse Technology sensor expansion options.
