Manually type in your station key into the console’s web display, instead of copying and pasting, to avoid adding a space at the end.

    Why is my Ambient Weather Station wireless sensor communication lost or intermittent?
    • S
      Sara AriasAug 9, 2025
      There could be several reasons why your wireless sensor communication is lost or intermittent: * Ensure the transmitter is powered and the LED flashes every 12 seconds. Use lithium batteries in cold environments. Replace the batteries if the transmitter isn't flashing. * The sensor may be out of range. The maximum communication range is 300 feet. Try moving the sensor closer to the console. * If the sensor is too close to the console (less than 5-10 feet), move it further away. * Ensure the sensors aren't transmitting through solid metal or earth barriers. * Move the console away from sources of electrical noise like computers, TVs, and other wireless devices. * Radio Frequency (RF) Sensors cannot transmit through metal barriers or multiple, thick walls.
