5. Setup troubleshooting: If the sensor data fails to display for any of the outdoor sensors
within 10 minutes, (“- - -“ is displayed), remove the batteries from all units for 1 minute
and start the Setup procedure again at Step 1.
MOUNTING THE SENSORS AND PLACEMENT OF THE WIRELESS DISPLAY:
IMPORTANT: Ensure that all of the sensor data can be received at the intended mounting
locations before you drill mounting holes. The wind and rain sensors have a wireless range of
200-feet & the thermo-hygro sensor has a wireless range of 200-feet. Keep in mind that the
ranges equate to an open air scenario with no obstructions. Each obstruction (roof, walls,
floors, ceilings, etc.) will reduce the range.
The thermo-hygro sensor measures outdoor temperature & humidity and collects the data
from the wind and the rain sensors. It sends all outdoor weather data to the wireless display,
so the thermo-hygro sensor must be within the 200-foot wireless range of the wireless display.
This allows the wind and rain sensors to be placed relative to the thermo-hygro sensor rather
than the wireless display. See Wireless Data Diagram above.
The wind and rain sensors must be mounted within the 200-foot wireless range of the
thermo-hygro sensor and on the same side of the house.
The wireless display must be within the 80-foot wireless range of the USB transceiver to
send weather data to the PC.
In addition, 915 MHz sensors transmit better at a minimum mounted height of 6 feet.
If the sensor wireless icons drop from the display as you move them into their intended
locations, the sensors may be too far from the wireless display. Try moving the wireless display
or the sensors closer and wait a few minutes to see if the wireless icons display again. If the
wireless icons are still not displayed after re-positioning the sensors or the wireless display,
press and hold the ▲UP ARROW key for 2 seconds to re-synchronize the wireless display with
the sensors.
