If sensor loses connection to the weather station for any reason, the weather station
will show NO after 30 minutes.
•
The weather station will search for 3 minutes every hour to reconnect with sensor.
•
Hold the PLUS (+) button 3 seconds to search for the outdoor sensor.
•
Reception Icon will flash while searching for sensor. Outdoor sensor area will show
dashes during the search.
•
When sensor is received the icon will be solid.
•
If no sensor received, the icon will disappear after 3 minutes of searching if sensor is
not found. NO will again show in the outdoor sensor area.
INACCURATE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY
•
The thermo-hygro sensor reads the environment. When the sensor reads high during
the day but not at night it is a mounting problem.
•
Side-by-side test: Bring the thermo-hygro sensor in the house and place it next to the
weather station for 2 hours.
•
Compare indoor and outdoor temperature. The temperatures should be within 4
degrees to be within tolerance. The humidity should be within 14% to be within
tolerance.
•
If the sensor reads correctly when next to your weather station then try a different
location outside.
•
Look for heat sources such as sunlight, door or window frames, or reflected heat.
OUTDOOR READINGS ARE STUCK OR SHOW HI OR LO
•
Check batteries. Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this reading.
•
Replace sensor.
INTERMITTENT SENSOR READINGS
•
RF (radio frequency) communication may come and go occasionally. This can be
normal in some environments (e.g. moister climates).
•
If a sensor goes out, please wait 2-4 hours for it to reconnect on its own. Please be
patience – these stations can reconnect on, after many hours out.
•
RF (radio frequency) communication is not always 100% on.
•
Certain temporary conditions can cause it to go out for a time (e.g. 100% humidity).
If a miss happens:
•
Hold the + (PLUS) button for 5 seconds to search for sensor.
•
can cause loss of sensor signal. Avoid having more than one wall,
window, tree etc., between the display and the sensor. UV coated windows may
actually reflect the signal. Stucco walls will absorb the signal.
