FACTORY RESET: HOW DO I FACTORY RESET MY STATION?
• A factory reset will delete all sensor ID numbers and if connected, remove all Wi-Fi
connections.
• Basically, this is a great way to return your station to “out of the box” condition.
• This is more effective than removing all power for clearing out the station.
• All history records will be removed, so write down anything you want to keep.
To factory reset your station:
1. Hold the LIGHT and DAILY FORECAST buttons together for 5 seconds.
2. When your station resets it will look for all sensors. Allow at least ten minutes to reacquire
the sensors.
Note:
If operating connected, you will need to reconnect to Wi-Fi from the app.
WHY DOESN’T THE TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY READINGS
ON MY STATION MATCH THE WEATHER REPORT?
• Your temperature and humidity readings are from your sensor at your location. Your local
reporting station can be miles away so readings will differ.
WHAT DOES A READING OF “HI” OR “LO” MEAN?
• If your outdoor temperature reading shows “HI” or “LO”, check that your batteries are good.
• Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this reading.
• If batteries are good, replace the outdoor sensor.
• If your temperature is fine but your humidity is reading “HI” or “LO” or dashes, your humidity
may be below 10% Relative Humidity. Your sensor does not read below 10% humidity.
TEMP INTERMITTANT: WHY DOES MY TEMP/HUMIDITY READING COME
AND GO?
• RF (radio frequency) communication may come and go occasionally. This can be normal in
some environments (e.g. moister climates).
• If a sensor goes out, please wait 2-4 hours for it to reconnect on its own. Please be patient
– these stations can reconnect on, after many hours out.
• RF (radio frequency) communication is not always 100% on. Certain temporary conditions
can cause it to go out for a time (e.g. 100% humidity).
If a miss happens:
• If sensor loses connection to the station for any reason, the station will show dashes after 30
minutes.
• The station will search for 5 minutes every hour to reconnect with sensor.
