Operating instructions

12. Troubleshooting notes

Possible malfunctions can hinder the correct display of the measured values:

• No signal received

¨ The distance between transmitter and receiver is too great or too small (< 1 m). Reduce or increase the

distance between transmitter and receiver.

¨ Strongly shielding materials are between the transmitter and the receiver (thick walls, reinforced concrete

etc.). Select a different location for transmitter or receiver. See also the chapter “Transmission range” in this

context.

¨ The batteries of the sensors are empty, change the batteries.

¨ The transmitter is superimposed by interfering transmitters (radio equipment, wireless headphones or

speakers). Eliminate the source of the interference or select a different location for transmitter and receiver.

If wireless headphones, wireless baby monitors or similar devices are operated at 868 MHz, they are usually

switched on for a limited time only, interferences will therefore occur only occasionally.

It may be possible to operate these devices on a different frequency so that they no longer interfere with the

weather station.

• The wireless sensor interferes with other devices in the 868 MHz range

¨ The transmissions of the wireless outdoor sensor can temporarily (every 2 to 3 minutes for approx. 100 ms)

interfere with other device operating on the same channel.

In some wireless headphones, for instance, this becomes evident as a short noise.

Select a different transmission/reception frequency for the device you are using (e.g. wireless headphones)

if possible.

Additional notes for startup and troubleshooting

Try to turn the weather station a bit, place it in some distance from electrical motors, electrical machines television

sets, computer screens and large metal surfaces.

For an easier start you can also set up the sensor near the display console (at least 1 m distance). Here you can first

check that the sensor correctly sends its data and thus the function of the weather station.

The sensor must be properly registered at the weather station or their data will not be displayed.
