Interferences and problems with operation

Problem & cause
Distance between
transmitters and
receiver too long.
High shielding
materials between the
units (thick walls, steel,
concrete, isolating
aluminum foil etc.)
Interference from other
sources (e.g. wireless
radio, headset,
speaker, etc. operating
on the same frequency)
No Reception after
adding extension
cables
Reception then no
reception - loss of
transmission signal
from the sensor to the
base station
Remedy
Reduce distance between transmitters
and receiver to receive signal
Find a different location for sensors
and/or receiver. See also Item
'Transmission Range' below.
Find a different location for the sensors
and/or base station. Neighbours using
electrical devices operating on the
433MHz signal frequency can also
cause interference with reception
Find a new location for the sensors
and/or base station. Recommend not
adding more than 10 metres of
extension cable between units to the
existing cable lengths, as this will
increase the chance of data reception
problems.
Press and hold the PLUS (+) key for 2
seconds to synchronize the base
station to the sensors for weather data
reception. If still no signal, then
change the sensor batteries and
synchronize the units again.
