DISCONNECTED SIGNALS
If without obvious reason the display for the main unit goes blank
or
are displayed, press and hold [CHANNEL] to enforce an
immediate search.
If that fails, check:
- All weather instruments are still in place.
- The batteries of the main unit and individual weather instruments
are still good. Replace them if necessary. Press and hold
[CHANNEL] to enforce an immediate search afterwards.
- The transmission is within range and path is cleared of obstacles
and interference. Shorten the distance if necessary.
Then press and hold [CHANNEL] again. The main unit will start
searching for all previously locked weather instruments.
If you want to add an new sensor, press the reset button on the new
sensor and then press channel to enforce the main unit to search.
Note: 1. Do not reset the sensors after the main unit has locked
those sensors, otherwise the main unit will no longer
receive the signal from those sensors.
2. If you have disconnected signals, you cannot clear the
memory.
THE RESET BUTTON
This button is only used when the system is operating in an
unfavorable way or malfunctioning. Use a blunt stylus to hold
down the button. The main unit will return to all default settings
and start searching for signals again.
Before resetting the main unit, you should do the same for all
weather instruments to ensure correct transmission and reception
of signals. Then press reset on the main unit.
MAINTENANCE
When handled properly, this unit is engineered to give you years
