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

No outdoor sensor

sensor when temperature is below -4ºF/-20ºC). Do not

use heavy duty or rechargeable batteries. NOTE: It

 

 

reception

 

 

may take up to 20 minutes for display unit and sensor

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

no bars

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

 

 

Outdoor

indication of wireless interference.

 

 

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

temperature

is flashing or

compartments of both the display unit and sensor are

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

showing dashes

C; but both units must match to sync up. Sometimes

 

 

 

 

 

changing to a different channel can help.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Weather Forecast icon predicts conditions for the next

 

 

 

 

 

12 to 24 hours, not current conditions.

 

 

 

 

 

• Has Learning Mode icon disappeared from the

 

 

 

 

 

display unit? Learning Mode must complete before

Inaccurate forecast

forecast and pressure will be accurate.

• Allow unit to run continuously for 33 days. Battery

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

removal or resetting the display unit will restart

 

 

 

 

 

Learning Mode. After 14 days, forecast should be

 

 

 

 

 

fairly accurate, however Learning Mode calibrates for

 

 

 

 

 

a total of 33 days.
