Problem

Solution

Move the display console around electrical 
noise generating devices, such as 
computers, TVs and other wireless 
transmitters or receivers.

Move  the  remote  sensor  to  a  higher 
location.  Move  the  remote  sensor  to  a 
closer location.

Indoor and 
Outdoor 
Temperature 
do not agree .

Allow up to one hour for the sensors to 
stabilize due to signal filtering. The indoor 
and outdoor temperature sensors should 
agree within 2 °F (the sensor accuracy is ± 
1 °F).

Use  the  calibration  feature  to  match  the 
indoor  and  outdoor  temperature  to  a 
known source. 

Display console 
contrast is 
weak.

Replace console batteries with a fresh set 
of batteries.

.

Te m p e r a t u r e  
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:
