Problem
Solution
Wireless remote not reporting in to
console.
There are dashes (--.-) on the display
console.
The maximum line of sight communication range is 150’
and 100’ under most conditions. Move the sensor closer
to the display console.
If the sensor assembly is too close (less than 5’), move
the sensor assembly away from the display console.
Make sure the remote sensor LCD display is working
and the transmitter light is flashing once per 60 seconds.
Install a fresh set of batteries in the remote thermometer.
For cold water environments, install lithium batteries.
Make sure the remote sensors are not transmitting
through solid metal (acts as an RF shield), or earth
barrier (down a hill).
Move the display console around electrical noise
generating devices, such as computers, TVs and other
wireless transmitters or receivers.
LCD display fading or unreadable.
Replace batteries in the thermometer.
Extreme heat or cold will cause the display to fade but
does not affect the wireless functionality. Bring into
house to restore display.
