Problem Possible Solution
Inaccurate forecast
Weather Forecast icon predicts conditions for the next 12
to 24 hours, not current conditions.
Has Learning Mode icon disappeared from the display
unit? Learning Mode must complete before forecast and
pressure will be accurate.
Allow unit to run continuously for 33 days. Battery removal
or resetting the display unit will restart Learning Mode.
After 14 days, forecast should be fairly accurate, however
Learning Mode calibrates for a total of 33 days.
Inaccurate
temperature or
humidity
Make sure both the display unit and 3-in-1 sensor are
placed away from any heat sources or vents (see page 9).
Make sure both units are positioned away from moisture
sources (see page 9).
Make sure 3-in-1 sensor is mounted at least 5 ft off of
the ground.
Inaccurate wind
readings
What is wind reading being compared to? Pro weather
stations are typically mounted at 30 ft high or more. Make
sure to compare data using a sensor positioned at the
same mounting height.
Check location of the sensor. Ensure it’s mounted a
minimum of 5 ft in the air with no obstructions around it
(within several feet).
Ensure wind cups are spinning freely. If they hesitate or stop
try lubricating with graphite powder or spray lubricant.
Display screen
not working
Check that the batteries are installed correctly. Batteries
may need to be replaced.
Reset the display by pressing the reset button, located on
the back of the display unit. Date and time will need to be
entered after a reset.
