Problem

Possible Solution

Inaccurate

tem perature or

hum idity

• Make sure both the display unit and 5-in-1 sensor

are placed away from any heat sources or vents (see

page 11).

• Make sure both units are positioned away from

moisture sources (see page 11).

• Make sure 5-in-1 sensor is mounted at least 5 ft off of

the ground.

• Calibrate indoor and outdoor temperature and

humidity (see page 20).

No rainfall

• Check to ensure the rain gauge stabilizer (plastic tab)

has been removed from the bottom of the sensor (see

page 7).

• Clear debris, such as leaves, out of the rain collector

funnel and debris screen.

• Calibrate the Rain Gauge (see page 23).

Inaccurate wind

readings

• What is wind reading being compared to? Pro

weather stations are typically mounted at 30 ft high

or more. Make sure to compare data using a sensor

positioned at the same mounting height.

• Check location of the sensor. Ensure it’s mounted a

minimum of 5 ft in the air with no obstructions around

it (within several feet).

• Ensure wind cups are spinning freely. If they hesitate

or stop try lubricating with graphite powder or spray

lubricant.

USB connectivity

not working

• Check that the batteries are installed correctly.

Batteries may need to be replaced.

• Reset the display by pressing the reset button, located

on the back of the display unit. Date and time will

need to be entered after a reset.
