13. TROUBLESHOOTING

No reception of the signal of the outdoor sensor?
If the weather station does not receive any measured data from the outdoor sensor,
only dashes ("--.-") are displayed for temperature by the weather station.
In this case, observe the following notes:
—
The distance between weather station and outdoor sensor is too large. Change
the installation site of the weather station or outdoor sensor.
—
The batteries of the outdoor sensor are weak or empty. Try to insert new batteries
into the outdoor sensor.
—
Always set the first outdoor sensor to channel 1. The switch (21) for channel
selection is in the battery compartment of the outdoor sensor.
If you use a second or third outdoor sensor (available as accessories), set them
for channel 2 or 3. Observe that each outdoor sensor must be set to a different
channel. Otherwise, they would interfere with each other.
—
Very low outdoor temperatures (less than -20 °C) decrease battery performance.
This reduces the range or the outdoor sensor will no longer work properly.
—
A different transmitter on the same or an adjacent frequency interferes with
the radio signal of the outdoor sensor. It may be helpful to reduce the distance
between the weather station and outdoor sensor or to choose another setup
site.
—
Objects or shielding materials (metalised insulated glass windows, reinforced
concrete, etc.) interfere with radio reception. The weather station is too close
to other electronic devices (TV, computer). Change the location site of the
weather station.
No DCF reception
—
Objects or shielding materials (metalised insulated glass windows, reinforced
concrete, etc.) interfere with reception. The weather station is too close to other
electronic devices (TV, computer), cables or mains sockets Change the location
site of the weather station.
—
When setting up the weather station in the basement or similar, the DCF signal
is too weak and reception is therefore not possible. The same applies of the
weather station is too far away from the DCF transmitter.
Set the time manually.
