After 15 minutes, if there is a reading in the outdoor temperature area, move the 
outdoor sensor to another room with one wall between the outdoor sensor and the 
projection alarm.  

 

Observe to see if the temperature remains on consistently for 1 hour.  

 

If the temperature remains on while in the house, then it is likely a 

distance/resistance 

issue.  

 

Move the outdoor sensor to different locations outside to find a location where the 
temperature reading will hold. 
 

Outdoor Temperature is stuck or HH.H, LL.L 

 

Explanation: 

These symbols are error messages indication the outdoor sensor is outside 

of its readable range.  
 

 

Check 

Batteries.

 Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this reading. 

 

Replace outdoor sensor.

 

 

Note: 

The last outdoor reading may remain (not change) for several hours when 

connection is lost. The outdoor temperature reading will flash when the connection is first 
lost or intermittent.  
 

Outdoor sensor drains batteries quickly 

 

 

Test a new set of alkaline batteries. Write down the date of installation and the voltage 
of the batteries. 

 

When the batteries fail, please note the date and voltage again.  

 

Check the 

distance 

an

resistance

 between the outdoor sensor and projection alarm. 

Outdoor sensors at the end of the range may work while batteries are fresh but not 
after they drain a bit. 

 

Check for leaking batteries, which may damage the outdoor sensor. 

 

Battery life is over 24 months when using reputable battery brands for both Alkaline 
and Lithium batteries. 

 

Outdoor sensor fell. The sensor no longer works 

 

Explanation:

 If there is no physical damage to the outdoor sensor, the fall may not have 

caused internal damage. A fall can shock the outdoor sensor or the batteries in the 
outdoor sensor. Batteries that have fallen on a hard surface may be damaged and unable 
to function properly. 
 

 

Complete a 

Restart

 with fresh batteries. 

 

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. 

 

Note: 

An outdoor sensor that has fallen into puddle, snow, or other standing water, will 

likely have water damage and needs to be replaced. Outdoor sensors are water resistant, 
not waterproof.
