Troubleshooting 

Problem 

Possible Solution 

No outdoor sensor 

reception 

• Relocate the display and/or the 5-in-1 sensor. 

The units must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other. 

• Make sure both units are placed at least 3 feet 

(.9 m) away from electronics that may interfere with 

the wireless communication (such as TVs, microwaves, 

computers, etc). 

• Use standard alkaline batteries (or lithium batteries in 

sensor when temperature is below -4

º

F/-20

º

C). Do not 

use heavy duty or rechargeable batteries. NOTE: It 

may take up to 20 minutes for display and sensor to 

no bars 

synchronize after batteries are replaced.

 

• Synchronize the units:

 

1. Bring both the sensor and display indoors and 

remove batteries from each. 

2. Reinstall batteries in outdoor sensor. 
3. Reinstall batteries in display.

 

4. Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other 

for about 20 minutes to gain a strong connection. 

Outdoor 

temperature 

is flashing or

 

showing dashes 

Flashing of the outdoor temperature may be an 

indication of wireless interference.

 

• Make sure the A-B-C switch in the battery 

compartments of both the display and sensor are 

switched to the same letter. You may choose A, B or 

C; but both units must match to sync up. Sometimes 

changing to a different channel can help.

 

Inaccurate forecast 

• Weather Forecast icon predicts conditions for the next 

12 to 24 hours, not current conditions. 

• Has Learning Mode icon disappeared from the 

display? Learning Mode must complete before 

forecast and pressure will be accurate.

 

• Allow unit to run continuously for 33 days. Battery 

removal or resetting the display will restart Learning 

Mode. After 14 days, forecast should be fairly 

accurate, however Learning Mode calibrates for a 

total of 33 days.
