AC Power
•
The design of this weather station is to use AC power (5-volt) as primary power
source.
•
When operating with the AC power cord, the
can be on continually.
•
When operating on AC power, batteries are optional and are not required in the
weather station.
•
will turn off or operate at high or low intensity at your discretion.
Batteries
Explanation:
Many problems are resolved with fresh batteries of the appropriate
voltage. Many items sent in under warranty work when tested with fresh batteries.
Batteries manufactured this year will have an expiration date 10 years (or more) in the
future. Battery technology has improved and batteries will maintain voltage longer in
storage. However, the environment the batteries reside in for the 10 years can deplete
the power.
•
Use Alkaline or Lithium batteries in the
outdoor sensor.
•
A minimum voltage of 1.48V for each battery is necessary for proper performance.
•
Use batteries dated at least six years in advance of the current year. Batteries dated
earlier than six years from now may still work, but may be unstable in performance.
•
Good name brand batteries make less noise, which reduces the chance of RF (radio
frequency) interference from the battery compartment.
Weather Station Factory Restart
Explanation:
The factory restart returns the weather station and outdoor sensor to an
“out
-of-the-
box”
default state and often resolves an issue.
Factory Restart:
1.
Remove all power (batteries and AC) from outdoor sensor and weather station.
