Troubleshooting 

Problem 

Possible Solution 

Inaccurate 

temperature or 

humidity 

• Make sure both the display unit and 3-in-1 sensor are 

placed away from any heat sources or vents (see page 9). 

• Make sure both units are positioned away from moisture 

sources (see page 9). 

• Make sure 3-in-1 sensor is mounted at least 5 ft off of 

the ground. 

• Calibrate indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity 

(see page 15). 

Inaccurate wind 

readings 

• What is wind reading being compared to?  Pro weather 

stations are typically mounted at 30 ft high or more. Make 
sure to compare data using a sensor positioned at the 
same mounting height. 

• Check location of the sensor. Ensure it’s mounted a 

minimum of 5 ft in the air with no obstructions around it 
(within several feet). 

•Ensure wind cups are spinning freely. If they hesitate or stop 

try lubricating with graphite powder or spray lubricant. 

Display screen 

not working 

• Check that the batteries are installed correctly. 

Batteries may need to be replaced. 

• Reset the display by pressing the RESET button, located on 

the back of the display unit in the battery compartment. 
Date and time will need to be entered after a reset. 

Inaccurate barometric 

pressure 

It may take up to 14 days for the pressure to calibrate to 
your location. 

The unit lost power 

or batteries were 

changed and the 

time is not correct 

The Intelli-Time battery needs to be replaced 
(see page 16). Once the new battery is installed, 
time and date will need to be set manually.
