2. Install a fresh set of batteries in the remote
sensor array. For cold weather environments,
install lithium batteries.
3. The maximum line of sight communication
range is 300’, 100’ under most conditions. Move
the sensor assembly closer to the display
console.
4. If the sensor assembly is too close (less than
5-10’), move the sensor assembly away from the
display console.
5. Make sure the remote sensors are not
transmitting through solid metal (acts as an RF
shield), or earth barrier (down a hill).
6. Move the display console around electrical noise
generating devices, such as computers, TVs and
other wireless transmitters or receivers.
7. Move the remote sensor array to a higher
location. Move the remote sensor array 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 4 °F (the sensor accuracy is
± 2 °F)
Indoor and Outdoor Humidity do not
agree
Allow up to one hour for the sensors to stabilize due to
signal filtering. The indoor and outdoor humidity sensors
should agree within 10 % (the sensor accuracy is ± 5 %)
Rain gauge reports rain when it is not
raining
An unstable mounting solution (sway in the mounting
pole) may result in the tipping bucket incorrectly
incrementing rainfall. Make sure you have a stable
mounting solution. Move the rain gauge from the pole
mount to a flat, stable mount (fixed, flat structure).
Wind speed appears low
Average wind speed may have the appearance of low
wind. Try switching the display to wind gust.
Display console is difficult to read
Change the display contrast level.
Replace the batteries in the console with a fresh set of
batteries.
Can the lamp be turned on all of time?
