Product Description
La Crosse Technology Weather Direct WA-1440U 4-Day Talking Internet-Powered Wireless Forecaster: Home & Kitchen. To operate the forecaster, no additional software or Wi-Fi connection is required, nor does the computer need to be on. With this talking La Crosse Technology internet-powered wireless forecaster, one no longer needs to wait for the TV weather reporter to hear the local weather. The Weather Direct WA-1440U four-day forecaster provides free weather forecasts sent directly from the internet to the unit for viewing and audio broadcast. By pushing the audio forecast key on top of the sleek black display, a male or female voice shares the selected location’s daily weather, chosen from over 60,000 US and Canadian locations. The A/B/C keys broadcast custom audio feeds of news headlines, sports, and more. To transmit internet forecasts, an AC-powered gateway connects with a secure LAN cable to a network router. Additionally, a TX-50U wireless outdoor sensor measures temperatures right outside the front door.The display stands upright or wall hangs. The selected location, location forecast, sunrise and sunset times, and outdoor temperature scroll across the bottom LCD section. In the center section, eighteen different icons and projected high and low temperatures forecast the next four days’ weather, updating every six hours. Internet-set time, date, and alarm indicator occupy the top LCD. Function keys on top of the display enable LCD contrast, scrolling-speed, and volume adjustments, Fahrenheit/Celsius selection, alarm setting, five-minute snooze activation, and viewing micro forecasts for morning, afternoon, evening, and night. Accompanied by mounting hardware, both the gateway and sensor communicate from 330 feet unobstructed. However, high-speed internet service, a network router, and the separate purchase of three C and two AA batteries are necessary.
