Console Diagnostic Mode

•An “X” flashes for every data packet received by the console.

•An “R” displays when the console is trying to re-establish a lost connection. The console tries for 10 minutes to re-establish a connection before going into L Mode.When no data packets have been received for 10 minutes, the console dashes- out any missing sensor readings.

•An “L” displays when the signal is lost (and the console is “asleep.”) The console stays in this mode for 15 minutes until returned to “R” mode. To force the console into “R” mode (“wake up” the console), enter and exit Setup Mode.

Check Console Reception

Enter Setup mode by pressing and holding DONE, then pressing the - key at the same time. Wait a few minutes while the console lists all the stations transmitting within range (See “Screen 1: Active Transmitters” on page 10 for more information). If the console does not detect your transmitter, check the following:

•Adjust the console and ISS antennas so that they are in line of sight with each other.

•Reduce the distance between the ISS and the console.

•If the console is directly beneath the ISS, the antennas should be horizontal.

•Try distancing your console from your ISS, at least 10 feet apart.

•Change the Transmitter ID (on both the console and the ISS) to a number other than 1.

Refer to the ISS Installation Manual or other station manual for instructions on how to check the station for potential transmission problems.

In addition to logging weather data, the console continuously monitors the station’s radio reception. You may find this information very helpful, especially when you are choosing locations for your console and ISS.

The Console Diagnostics Mode consists of two screens, the Statistical Diagnostic Screen and the Reception Diagnostic Screen. The Statistical Diagnostic screen applies for both cabled and wireless weather stations. The Reception Diagnostic screen applies only to wireless weather stations and is not accessible to a cabled weather station.

Note:	Radio transmission data used by the diagnostic screens clears each day at midnight.

Diagnostic Screen Commands

•Press and hold TEMP, then press HUM to display the Statistical Diagnostic screen.

•Press the > key to display signal statistics for the next installed transmitter ID.

•Press 2ND and then press CHILL to toggle between the Statistical and Reception Diagnostic screens.

•A degree (°) sign displays in right corner of value 1 of the Reception Diagnostic screen (screen 2) to differentiate which screen is currently displayed.

•Press DONE to exit the diagnostic screen.
