Frequently Asked Questions

It may be as simple as placing the remote(s) (powered up with fresh batteries) about 10-20 feet away from the console, power down and up the console by removing one or more batteries, disconnecting from AC power (if applicable), wait 30 seconds, and put the batteries back in, then wait several minutes to synchronize.

DO NOT TOUCH ANY BUTTONS and look for the search icon. Wait until the search icon turns off before pressing any buttons.

If you have more than one sensor, make sure they are programmed to transmit on different channels.

If the problem persists, we have a one year warranty. Please visit: www.AmbientWeather.com/rma.html

Weather Underground only provides indoor data in their iPad application Wunderstation.

However, AmbientWeather.net fully supports indoor and multiple channel sensors.

On September 5, 2018, AmbientWeather.net moved the website to a different hosting service.

This may cause updates to cease if the DNS is cached on your device, network (router) or the Internet.

One symptom is the dashboard stops updating, but the graphs continue to update.

To resolve this issue:

1. Reboot your device:
   – Remove AC power
   – Wait 10 seconds
   – Plug AC power back in
2. Roboot your router (remove and reconnect AC power).
3. Give it time for your network to resolve the DNS cache issue.
4. If the problem persists, restore your device to factory default per the use manual.

The reasons we updated hosting services:

1. We moved to a service that provides for a static IP address. This means no more DNS issues in the future.
2. The new hosting service is faster, better supported with tools, and scalable to the rapid growth of users.

If you are not receiving the signal from the outdoor sensor suite, or the signal is weak, you can program the console to retransmit the data. The console acts as a repeater.

Reference your Console User Manual:
