3. Rinse the RH chip or dispose of the old RH chip.
4. Hold the sides of the rinsed or new chip and plug it in.
5. Screw on the protective cap.
9. Troubleshooting
Symptom: NAN, -9999, or 0 % relative humidity
1. Check that the sensor is wired to the correct analog input channels as
specified by the measurement instructions.
2. Verify the voltage range code for the single-ended measurement
instruction is correct for the datalogger type.
Symptom: Incorrect temperature or relative humidity
1. Verify the multiplier and offset parameters are correct for the desired units
(Tables 7-2 and 7-3).
