Outdoor
sensor array
does not
communicat
e to the
display
console.
The sensor array may have initiated properly and the data is
registered by the console as invalid, and the console must be
reset. Press the reset button as described in Section 5.3.
With an open ended paperclip, press the reset button for 3
seconds to completely discharge the voltage.
Take out the batteries and wait one minute, while covering the
solar panel to drain the voltage.
Put batteries back in and resync the console with the sensor
array about 10 feet away.
The LED next to the battery compartment will flash every 16
seconds. If the LED is not flashing every 16 seconds…
Replace the batteries in the outside sensor array.
If the batteries were recently replaced, check the polarity. If
the sensor is flashing every 16 seconds, proceed to the next
step.
There may be a temporary loss of communication due to
reception loss related to interference or other location factors,
or the batteries may have been changed in the sensor array
and the console has not been reset. The solution may be as
simple as
powering down and up the console
(remove AC
power and batteries, wait 10 seconds, and reinsert AC power
and batteries).
