WeatherSleuth
®
receiver may not have been reset after loss of signal
There may have been a temporary loss of communication due to reception
loss from interference or other location factors, or the batteries may have
been changed in the thermo-hygrometer and the WeatherSleuth
®
receiver
has not been reset. In this case follow the reset procedure in section 3.3.5.
Temperature sensor
reads too high in the
day time
Make certain that the sensor array is not too close to heat generating sources
or structures, such as buildings, pavement, walls or air conditioning units.
Use the calibration feature to offset installation issues related to radiant heat
sources. Reference 3.6.9.
Absolute pressure
does not agree with
official reporting
station
You may be viewing the relative pressure, not the absolute pressure.
Select the absolute pressure. Make sure you properly calibrate the sensor to
an official local weather station. Reference Section 3.6.9 for details.
Rain gauge reports
rain when it is not
raining
An unstable mounting solution (sway in the mounting pole) may result in the
tipping bucket incorrectly incrementing rainfall. Make sure you have a
stable, level mounting solution.
Data not reporting to
Wunderground.com
Confirm your password is correct. It is the password you registered on
Wunderground.com. Your Wunderground.com password cannot begin with
a non-alphanumeric character (a limitation of Wundeground.com, not the
station). Example:
$oewkrf is not a valid password, but oewkrf$ is valid
Confirm your station ID is correct. The station ID is all caps, and the most
common issue is substituting an O for a 0 (or vice versa). Example,
KAZPHOEN11, not KAZPH0EN11
Make sure your time zone is set properly. If incorrect, you may be reporting
old data, not real time data.
Check your router firewall settings. The WeatherSleuth
®
receiver sends data
via Port 80.
Only the Power,
Link and ACT
lights are lit and
the
WeatherSleuth
®
receiver does not
communicate to
the server
The firmware will need to be reloaded.
