AcuRite 75110 Weather Station - Manual (Page 8)

This wireless weather station uses long range 433mhz radio
frequency for communication.
In the event that you have reception problems due to interference,
both the main unit and the 3 wireless sensors have a selectable
wireless ID. The ID switches are located within the battery
compartments of the main unit and the 3 wireless sensors.
You may choose A, B or C; but both the main units and the
wireless sensors IDs must match for successful synchronization.

Wireless Sensor
Reception
Relocate the main unit and/or the wireless
sensors. All units must be within 100 feet
from each other. Make sure both units are
placed at least 3 feet from other electronic
appliances and devices that may interfere
with the wireless communication (such as
TV’s, microwaves, computers etc). NOTE: It
may take up to 20 minutes for the main unit
to resynchronize with the sensors when
batteries are replaced. Use lithium batteries
in sensors when temperature is below -4º F.
Main Unit
Display Not Working
Make certain that the batteries are installed
correctly. The batteries may need replacing.
If you are using the AC power adaptor, make
certain it is plugged in and the outlet power is
switched on.
No Wireless Sensor Data
(no communication)
If wireless reception is bad (no bars), see
“Bad Reception” section above. The wireless
ID setting on each unit must match for all
units to communicate properly. See “Set
Wireless ID” on the next page.

Bad Atomic Clock
Reception
Relocate the main unit. It is important that
the atomic clock sensor (located in the
wireless temperature/humidity sensor) is
located in an area with a western view clear
of any large stone or metallic surfaces.
Make sure the main unit is placed at least
3 feet from other electronic appliances and
devices that may interfere with the wireless
communication (such as TV’s, microwaves,
computers etc). Large metallic surfaces will
also interfere with the atomic clock signal.
Use lithium batteries in sensors when
temperature is below -4º F.

SECTION 6 • TROUBLESHOOTING and INFORMATION
Extended periods of cold temperatures ( below -4ºF / -20ºC )
can cause alkaline batteries to function improperly. This will
cause the outdoor wireless sensor to stop transmitting
temperature readings. Use lithium batteries in these low
temperature conditions to ensure continued operation for
wireless sensors placed outdoors.
