If a miss happens:
•
If your wind sensor loses connection to the station for any reason, the station will show
dashes after 30 minutes.
•
The station will search for 5 minutes every hour to reconnect with wind sensor.
Try this:
•
Bring your wind sensor within 10 feet of your station and make sure it is connected to the
station.
•
After 15 minutes move the wind sensor into the next room with a wall between the sensor
and the station for 1 hour.
•
If there is no loss of signal in that hour, move the wind sensor just outside.
•
Continue moving the wind sensor back to its original location.
•
If you lose connection, look for sources of
WIND ACCURACY: WHY IS MY WIND SPEED INACCURATE?
•
What are you comparing your wind speed to? Your local reporting station is miles from your
location and should not be used for comparison.
•
Check the unit of measure (MPH, or KMH).
•
Check to see if your station receives the same repetitive wind speed recording from the
sensor multiple times.
•
Check that the cups turn freely.
•
Check for obstructions that prevent clear wind flow to the cups.
•
Check mounting. In most cases, the wind sensor needs to be 6 feet or more above the
highest point on the roof in order to clear nearby obstructions and read accurately. A 50-foot
clearance in all directions is best.
•
It is helpful to send pictures of the sensor mounting, if you need to contact customer support.
WHY ARE THE SENSOR READINGS ON MY STATION DIFFERENT FROM
•
The reading on your station is the "real time" reading. Your station updates as soon as it
receives a new reading from the sensor.
•
The App updates data every 60-90 seconds.
•
Since Wind Speed changes frequently, this is the common difference you may notice
between your station and your app.
