    Why don't the indoor and floating pool temperatures match on my Ambient Weather Thermometer?
    • J
      Jeremy JohnsonJul 26, 2025
      The indoor and floating pool temperature sensors should agree within 2 °F. Allow up to one hour for the sensors to stabilize due to signal filtering. If discrepancies persist, use the calibration feature to match the indoor and floating pool temperature to a known source.

    What to do if Ambient Weather Thermometer shows dashes?
    • K
      Kyle StephensNov 4, 2025
      If the Ambient Weather Thermometer displays dashes (--.-), it means sensor communication is lost. Here's what you can do: * Press and hold the CHANNEL/+ button for 3 seconds to reacquire the signal. The remote search icon will display constantly, and turn off once the signal is reacquired. * Ensure the sensor is within the communication range (300’ line of sight, 100’ under most conditions). * Adjust the distance between the sensor and console (avoid being too close, less than 5’). * Check the remote sensor LCD and ensure the transmitter light flashes every 60 seconds. * Replace batteries in the remote thermo-hygrometer (use lithium batteries for cold weather). * Avoid obstructions like solid metal or earth barriers. * Move the console away from electrical noise sources. * ...
