Problem

Possible Solution

 

 

 

 

 

• Relocate the display unit and/or the 5-in-1 sensor.

 

 

 

 

 

The units must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other.

 

 

 

 

 

• Make sure both units are placed at least 3 feet

 

 

 

 

 

(.9 m) away from electronics that may interfere with

 

 

 

 

 

the wireless communication (such as TVs, microwaves,

 

 

 

 

 

computers, etc).

 

 

 

 

 

• Use standard alkaline batteries (or lithium batteries in

to synchronize after batteries are replaced.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Synchronize the units:

 

 

 

 

 

1. Bring both the sensor and display unit indoors and

 

 

 

 

 

remove batteries from each.

 

 

 

 

 

2. Reinstall batteries in outdoor sensor.

 

 

 

 

 

3. Reinstall batteries in display unit.

 

 

 

 

 

4. Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other

 

 

 

 

 

for about 20 minutes to gain a strong connection.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Flashing of the outdoor temperature may be an

indication of wireless interference.

 

 

• Make sure the A-B-C switch in the battery

compartments of both the display unit and sensor are

switched to the same letter. You may choose A, B or
