• It may be helpful to orient the weather 90 degrees towards the sensor for better
reception.
• Sensor operate best when elevated at least 6 feet.
• Remove the batteries from the sensor for 2 minutes. Replace the batteries in the
Thermohygro sensor and hold the SEARCH button for five seconds. Wait 10 minutes. If
the unit does not receive a reading from the sensor, please try the factory reset.
INACCURATE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY
• The thermo-hygro sensor reads the environment. When the sensor reads high during
the day but not at night it is a mounting problem.
• Side-by-side test: Bring the thermo-hygro sensor in the house and place it next to the
weather 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 weather station then try a different
location outside.
• Look for heat sources such as sunlight, door or window frames, or reflected heat.
OUTDOOR READINGS ARE STUCK OR SHOW HI OR LO
• Check batteries. Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this reading.
• Replace sensor.
• RF (radio frequency) communication may come and go occasionally. This can be
normal in some environments (e.g. moister climates).
• If a sensor goes out, please wait 2-4 hours for it to reconnect on its own. Please be
patience – these stations can reconnect on, after many hours out.
• RF (radio frequency) communication is not always 100% on.
• Certain temporary conditions can cause it to go out for a time (e.g. 100% humidity).
• IF the signal is lost, the RX will display the LAST DATA recorded from sensor for 10
minutes.
• After that 10 minutes if the signal does not come back then display dashes "--".
• After 30 minutes, start looking for the RF signals automatically.
If a miss happens:
• Hold the SEARCH button for 5 seconds to search for sensor.
Distance/Resistance
•
window, tree etc., between the display and the sensor. UV coated windows may
actually reflect the signal. Stucco walls will absorb the signal.
• Check batteries. This is our primary warranty issue.
• Test a new set of alkaline batteries. Write down the date of installation and the voltage
of the batteries.
