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.
