Why Don't My Temperature/Humidity Readings On My Station Match The Weather Report - La Crosse Technology Wireless Weather Station Combo Faqs

new growth on trees or bushes that causing another barrier. Radio Frequency (RF) signal
does not travel well through foliage due to the moisture content.
• Occasionally adding a new wireless electronic device to the home will cross the signal
path for the sensor. If this occurs try moving your station a few feet or turning the
station 90 degrees for a better angle to receive the sensor signal.
• When you have good batteries, and good location, hold the PLUS (+) button (Color
Station) or +/SEARCH button (Mini Display) for three seconds to search for your sensor.
If you regain connection while the sensor is mounted, great. If you do not regain
connection, bring the sensor within 10 feet of the station and complete a factory reset.
WHY DON'T MY TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY READINGS
ON MY STATION MATCH THE WEATHER REPORT?
• Your temperature and humidity readings are from you sensor at your location. Your local
reporting station can be miles away so readings may differ.
TEMP ACCURACY: WHY DOES MY THERMO-HYGRO SENSOR READ
• The thermo-hygro sensor reads the environment. If your sensor reads high during the
day but not at night it is a
• Side-by-side test: Bring the thermo-hygro sensor in the house and place it next to your
station for 2 hours.
• 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 your station then try a different location
outside.
• Look for heat sources such as sunlight, door or window frames, or reflected heat that
may cause inaccurate readings.
• If your temperature is reading low, and location is not an issue, you may have a bad
sensor.
WHAT DOES A READING OF "HI" OR "LO" MEAN?
• If your outdoor temperature reading shows "HI" or "LO", check that your
good.
• Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this reading.
• If batteries are good, replace the outdoor sensor.
• If your temperature is fine but your humidity is reading "HI" or "LO" or dashes, your
humidity may be below 10% Relative Humidity. Your sensor does not read below 10%
humidity.
