Outdoor sensors at the end of the range may work while batteries are fresh but not after they drain a bit. Check the distance and resistance between the outdoor sensor and weather station. When the batteries fail, please note the date and voltage again. Write down the date of installation and the voltage of the batteries. The outdoor temperature reading will flash when the connection is first lost or intermittent. Note: The last outdoor reading may remain (not change) for 30 minutes when connection is lost. Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this reading. These symbols are error messages indicating the outdoor sensor is outside of its readable range. Outdoor Temperature is stuck on HH.H, or LL.L. Move the outdoor sensor to different locations outside to find a location where the temperature reading will hold. If the temperature remains on while in the house, then it is likely a distance/resistance issue. Observe to see if the temperature remains on consistently for 1 hour. After 15 minutes, if there is a reading in the outdoor temperature area, move the outdoor sensor to another room with one wall between the outdoor sensor and the weather station. Indoor distance test: Please complete the Restart with outdoor sensor and weather station 5-10 feet apart and inside to establish a strong connection. Place the outdoor sensor in the freezer for an hour and watch the temperature drop on the weather station. Distance/Resistance can cause loss of outdoor sensor signal.įreezer test: Confirm the weather station is reading the correct outdoor sensor (not a neighbor’s sensor). Move the outdoor sensor to a closer location. If outdoor sensor signal is lost, please wait 2-4 hours for the signal to reconnect on its own. This can be normal in some environments (e.g. RF (radio frequency) communication may come and go occasionally. Intermittent problems are the hardest to resolve. If the outdoor sensor reads correctly when next to the weather station, try a different location outside. The temperatures should be within 4 degrees to be within tolerance. Compare indoor and outdoor temperature. Side-by-side test: Place the outdoor sensor right next to the weather station for 2 hours. Look for heat sources such as sunlight, door or window frames or reflected heat. When the outdoor sensor reads high during the day, but not at night, it is a positioning problem. When mounted inside the home, it will read inside temperature/humidity. The outdoor sensor reads the environment where it is mounted. Low outdoor temperature readings are power related or a sensors going bad. High outdoor temperature readings are generally a location issue. You may choose to use Lithium batteries for temperatures below -20☏/-28.8☌. We recommend Alkaline batteries for the outdoor sensor. 2-AA batteries power the outdoor sensor. Try the quick connect above or factory restart. This allows more antenna surface to face the outdoor sensor signal. Turn the weather station 90 degrees towards the outdoor sensor to provide better reception. Distance/Resistance can cause loss of connection between the outdoor sensor and the weather station. Batteries often resolve the connection. The strength signal icon will animate until the sensor signal is received, or for 3 minutes if no signal available.ĭashes mean the connection is lost between the weather station and the outdoor sensor. Hold the TEMP button for 3 seconds to search for the outdoor temperature/humidity sensor. The weather station will search for the outdoor temperature/humidity sensor for 3 minutes after installing batteries or after holding the TEMP button for 3 seconds. If the above procedure does not work, please try the factory restart Wait for 2 minutes for the outdoor temperature to appear on the weather station. Remove battery cover from the outdoor sensor and press and release the TX button to send the signal.Ĥ. The outdoor temperature area will flash.ģ. Bring the outdoor sensor and weather station together inside, and place the units 5- 10 feet apart with nothing between them.Ģ. This is not the same as a thorough factory reset.ġ. Use the quick connect for a weather station and outdoor sensor that have been working but lost connection due to interference or low batteries. The TX141TH-A, TX141TH-B (all versions) are compatible. The TX141TH-Bv3 outdoor sensor comes packaged with this weather station. Outdoor Humidity goes to dashes when the temperature is cold Outdoor Temperature is stuck on HH.H, LL.L
