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.

MIN/MAX Temperature readings 

 

Explanation:

 The forecast station shows the daily minimum and maximum temperatures each day 

starting at midnight (12:00 AM). The forecast station automatically resets the MIN/MAX temperatures at 
midnight (12:00 AM). 

  

 

View Min/Max 

 

MAX:

 From a normal display press and release the MIN/MAX button once to view maximum 

temperature and humidity values for Indoor and Outdoor data. The word MAX will appear next to the 
indoor and outdoor temperature. 

 

MIN:

 From a normal display press and release the MIN/MAX button twice to view minimum 

temperature and humidity values for Indoor or Outdoor data. The word MIN will appear next to the 
indoor and outdoor temperature.  

 

Reset Min/Max  

Hold the MIN/MAX button for 5 seconds to manually reset all indoor and outdoor minimum and maximum 
values. (The forecast station automatically resets the min/max temperatures at midnight: 12:00 AM). 
 

Note:

 If you are using multiple transmitters connected to the forecast station, all channels will reset at the 

same time. 

 

Heat Index/Dew Point temperature 

 

Heat Index: 

  Heat Index combines the effects of heat and humidity.  

  It is the apparent temperature of how hot it feels to a human being.  

  As humidity increases, the body is unable to cool effectively.  

  The temperature will feel warmer. 

 
View Heat Index: 

From a normal display, press the HEAT/DEW button once and Heat Index will show 

instead of the outdoor ambient temperature. 

Note:

 Heat index will be the same number as the temperature until the outdoor temperature is above 

26.7°C (80°F).  

 
Dew Point Temperature:   

  Dew Point Temperature is the saturation point of the air, or the temperature to which the air has to 

cool in order to create condensation.  

  The higher the dew points, the higher the moisture content of the air at a given temperature.
