Solution
Replace the batteries in the outside sensor array.
If the batteries were recently replaced, check the polarity. If the sensor is
flashing every 16 seconds, proceed to the next step.
There may be a temporary loss of communication due to reception loss
related to interference or other location factors,
or the batteries may have been changed in the sensor array and the console
has not been reset. The solution may be as simple as powering down and up
the console (remove AC power and batteries, wait 10 seconds, and reinsert
AC power and batteries).
Make certain that the sensor array is not too close to heat generating sources
or strictures, such as buildings, pavement, walls or air conditioning units.
Use the calibration feature to offset installation issues related to radiant heat
sources. Reference Section 6.10.
You may be viewing the absolute pressure, not the relative pressure.
Select the relative pressure. Make sure you properly calibrate the sensor to
an official local weather station. Reference Section 6.4 for details.
An unstable mounting solution (sway in the mounting pole) may result in the
tipping bucket incorrectly incrementing rainfall. Make sure you have a
stable, level mounting solution.
1. Confirm your password or key is correct. It is the password you
registered on Wunderground.com. Your Wunderground.com
password cannot begin with a non-alphanumeric character (a
limitation of Wundeground.com, not the station). Example, $oewkrf
is not a valid password, but oewkrf$ is valid.
2. Confirm your station ID is correct. The station ID is all caps, and
the most common issue is substituting an O for a 0 (or visa versa).
Example, KAZPHOEN11, not KAZPH0EN11
3. Make sure the date and time is correct on the console. If incorrect,
you may be reporting old data, not real time data.
4. Make sure your time zone is set properly. If incorrect, you may be
reporting old data, not real time data.
5. Check your router firewall settings. The console sends data via Port
80.
1. Check for WiFi symbol on the display. If wireless connectivity is
successful the WiFi icon
2. Make sure your modem WiFi settings are correct (network name,
and password).
3. Make sure the console is plugged into AC power. The console will
will be displayed in the time field.
