Problem
Solution
environmental conditions. Move the sensor and
base station closer together.
3. If the sensor assembly is too close (less than 5’),
move the remote sensor assembly away from the base
station.
4. Make sure the remote sensors are not transmitting
through solid metal like aluminum siding (acts as an
RF shield), or earth barrier (down a hill).
5. Move the base station away from electrical noise
generating devices, such as computers, TVs and other
wireless transmitters or receivers.
6. Move the remote sensor to a higher location or Move
the remote sensor to a closer location.
Temperature sensor reads too
high in the day time.
Make sure the thermo-hygrometer transmitter is mounted in a
shaded area on a north facing wall.
Indoor and Outdoor
Temperature do not agree
1. Allow up to one hour for the sensors to stabilize due to
signal filtering. The indoor and outdoor temperature
sensors should agree within 4 °F (the sensor accuracy is ±
2 °F).
2. Perform a temperature calibration (reference Section 2.1)
Indoor and Outdoor Humidity
do not agree
1. Allow up to one hour for the sensors to stabilize due to
signal filtering. The indoor and outdoor humidity sensors
should agree within 10 % (the sensor accuracy is ± 5 %)
2. Perform a humidity calibration (reference Section 2.1)
Relative pressure does not agree
with official reporting station
1. You may be viewing the relative pressure, not the absolute
pressure.
2. Make sure you properly calibrate the barometer to an
official local weather station (reference Section 2.1)
3. The barometer is only accurate to ± 0.08 inHg within the
following relative pressure range: 27.13 to 32.50 inHg,
which corresponds to an altitude of -2,200 to 2,700 feet.
At higher altitudes, expect some non-linearity error.
Time is incorrect
Make sure your time zone and daylight savings time setting is
correct.
The forecast icon is not accurate
The weather station console must run for several days to trend
barometric pressure.
The weather forecast is an estimation or generalization of weather
changes in the next 24 to 48 hours, and varies from location to
location. The tendency is simply a tool for projecting weather
conditions and is never to be relied upon as an accurate method to
predict the weather.
Moon phase is not correct
Check your calendar date and make sure it is correct
Display console contrast is weak Replace base station batteries with a fresh set of batteries.
