Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Solution
No outdoor sensor
reception
no bars
If the wireless signal indicator shows no bars:
• Relocate the display and/or the outdoor sensor. The
units must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other.
• Make sure both units are placed at least 3 feet
(.9 m) away from electronics that may interfere with
the wireless communication (such as TVs, microwaves,
computers, etc).
• Use standard alkaline batteries (or lithium batteries in
sensor when temperature is below -4ºF/-20ºC). Do not
use heavy duty or rechargeable batteries.
NOTE: It may
take a few minutes for display and sensor to synchronize
after batteries are replaced.
Display is too dark,
hard to read or
doesn’t work
• Verify power adapter is plugged in.
• Adjust the backlight brightness by using the
or
buttons (see page 10).
• The optimum viewing angle for this product is from
slightly above it.
The unit lost power
or batteries were
changed and the time
is not correct
• The Intelli-Time battery needs to be replaced (see
page 13). Once the new battery is installed, time and
date will need to be set manually.
Inaccurate
temperature
• Make sure both the display and sensor are placed out of
direct sunlight and away from any heat sources or vents
(see page 8).
Outdoor
temperature
is ashing or
showing dashes
Flashing of the outdoor temperature is generally an
indication of wireless interference.
1. Bring both the sensor and display indoors, side by side
and remove power adapter/batteries from each.
2. Make sure the A-B-C switch on both units match.
3. Reinstall batteries in outdoor sensor.
4. Reinstall power adapter/batteries in display.
5. Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other for a
few minutes to gain a strong connection.
