If the temperature remains on while in the house, then it is likely a
issue.
•
Move the outdoor sensor to different locations outside to find a location where the
temperature reading will hold.
Outdoor Temperature is stuck or HH.H, LL.L
Explanation:
These symbols are error messages indicating the outdoor sensor is outside of its
readable range.
•
Check
Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this reading.
•
Replace the outdoor sensor.
Note:
The last outdoor reading may remain (not change) for several hours when the connection is
lost. The outdoor temperature reading will flash when the connection is first lost or intermittent.
Outdoor sensor drains batteries quickly
•
Test a new set of alkaline batteries. Write down the date of installation and the voltage of
the batteries.
•
When the batteries fail, please note the date and voltage again.
•
resistance
between the outdoor sensor and the weather station.
Outdoor sensors at the end of the range may work while batteries are fresh but not after
they drain a bit.
•
Check for leaking batteries, which may damage the outdoor sensor.
•
Battery life is over 24 months when using reputable battery brands for both Alkaline and
Lithium batteries.
Outdoor Humidity goes to dashes when the temperature is cold.
•
The outdoor temperature/humidity sensor designed to work with this weather station will
drop the outdoor humidity and dew point reading in cold temperatures.
•
The humidity and dew point will return when the temperature rises. This is how the sensor
came from the factory. The temperature itself will continue to read.
The outdoor sensor fell. The sensor no longer works
Explanation:
If there is no physical damage to the outdoor sensor, the fall may not have caused
internal damage. A fall can shock the outdoor sensor or the batteries in the outdoor sensor.
Batteries that have fallen on a hard surface may be damaged and unable to function properly.
•
•
Use
dated at least six years in advance of the current year. Batteries dated earlier
than six years from now may still work but may be unstable in performance.
Note:
A outdoor sensor that has fallen into a puddle, snow, or other standing water, will likely have
water damage and need to be replaced. Outdoor sensors are water resistant, not waterproof.
