Troubleshooting
The display shows dashes “---” for weather parameter(s)
The display will show “---” when the wireless link with the remote is lost sensor for the following
periods:
Thermo-hygro Sensor
– 15 minutes
Anemometer (Wind Sensor) – 15 minutes
Rain Sensor – 30 minutes
Check or replace the batteries for the corresponding sensor. Then press and hold DOWN to enforce
a search for all remote signals.
If the above does not solve the problem, check the wireless transmission path from the
corresponding sensor to the main console unit and change their locations if necessary.
Although wireless signals can pass through solid objects and walls, the sensor should ideally be
within the line of sight of the console unit.
The following may be the cause of reception problems:
- Distance between remote sensor and main console unit too long. (Maximum transmission distance
in open area conditions is 100 m.)
- Signal shielding materials such as metal surfaces, concrete walls or dense vegetation in the path of
transmission.
- Interferences from wireless devices (such as cordless phones, radio headsets, baby listening
devices) and electronic appliances.
The weather readings do not correlate with measurements from TV, radio or offi cial weather reports
Weather data can vary considerably due to different environmental conditions and placement of
weather sensors.
Check the placement tips included in this manual to site your sensors in the best possible way.
The weather forecast is inaccurate
The weather forecast is a prediction of weather after 12-24 hours, and may not refl ect current
weather conditions.
