Temperature Station. Observe to see if the temperature remains on consistently
for 1-hour.
 If the temperature remains while in the house then it is likely a
distance/resistance issue. Move the transmitter to find a location where the
temperature reading will hold.
 Distance/Resistance can cause loss of transmitter signal.
 Check Batteries.

Outdoor Temperature Shows OFL

 OFL stands for Outside Factory Limits.
 The outdoor transmitter is sending and the Temperature Station is receiving the
signal.
 Check Batteries. Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this
reading.
 Replace outdoor transmitter.

Outdoor Temperature Changes Constantly

 You may have an additional compatible outdoor transmitter within range.
 Occasionally a neighbor will have a compatible outdoor transmitter that is within
range.

Outdoor transmitter fell and no longer works

 If there is no physical damage to the outdoor transmitter, the fall may not have
caused internal damage.
 An outdoor transmitter that has fallen into a puddle or other standing water or
snow may have water damage.
 Transmitters are water resistant, not waterproof.
 A fall can shock the transmitter or the batteries in the transmitter.
 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.

Outdoor Transmitter 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. This is helpful in
determining the problem.
 Check the distance and resistance between the transmitter and temperature
station. Transmitters 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 transmitter.
 Battery life is over 24 months when using reputable battery brands for both
Alkaline and Lithium batteries.
