Outdoor Readings Are Stuck Or Ofl; Intermittent Sensor Readings; Sensor Drains Batteries Quickly; Humidity Shows Ofl But Temperature Works - La Crosse Technology 327-1414WV2 Manual

 Compare indoor and outdoor temperature. The temperatures should be within 4
degrees to be within tolerance. The humidity should be within 14% to be within
tolerance.
 If the sensor reads correctly when next to the Professional weather station then
try a different location outside.
 Look for heat sources such as sunlight, door or window frames, or reflected
heat.
 Check batteries. Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this
reading.
 Replace sensor.
 RF (radio frequency) communication may come and go occasionally. This can be
normal in some environments (e.g. moister climates).
 If a sensor goes out, please wait 2-4 hours for it to reconnect on its own. Please
be patience – these stations can reconnect on, after many hours out.
 RF (radio frequency) communication is not always 100% on.
 Certain temporary conditions can cause it to go out for a time (e.g. 100%
humidity).
If a miss happens:
 Hold the DOWN ARROW button for 5 seconds to search for sensor.
 The units try for 20 minutes to reconnect. After 20 minutes, the sensor stops
trying for an hour (to preserve battery life). After the 1-hour break, the sensor
will start another 20-minute re-connect cycle.
Distance/Resistance

wall, window, tree etc., between the display and the sensor. UV coated windows
may actually reflect the signal. Stucco walls will absorb the signal.
 Check batteries. This is our primary warranty issue.
 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. This is helpful in
determining the problem.
 Check the distance and resistance between the sensor and Professional weather
station. 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 sensor.
