through solid metal (acts as an RF shield), or earth 
barrier (down a hill). 
 
Move the display console around electrical noise

wireless transmitters or receivers. 
 
Move the remote sensor to a higher location. Move the 
remote sensor to a closer location. 
 
Radio Frequency (RF) Sensors cannot transmit through 
metal barriers (example, aluminum siding) or multiple, 
thick walls. 

Temperature sensor reads too high in the 
day time. 

Make sure the thermometer is mounted in a shaded area 
on the north facing wall. Consider the following 
radiation shield if this is not possible:

Indoor and Outdoor Temperature do not 
agree 

Allow up to 30 minutes for the sensors to stabilize due to 
signal filtering. The indoor and outdoor temperature 
sensors should agree within 4 °F (the sensor accuracy is 
± 2 °F) 

Display console contrast is weak 

Replace console batteries with a fresh set of batteries.
