Frequently Asked Questions

To set the dip switches in an 8 channel sensor, there are three dip switches with 8 different combinations.

After you set the dip switches, you must always power down and up the remote sensor by removing and reinserting the batteries for the change to take effect.

Why do we do it this way instead of an 8 position switch? The reason is 8 position switches are much more difficult to implement, less reliable and takes up more space.

If the temperature or humidity does not match between what is displayed on the remote sensor and what is displayed on the console:

1. If you own more than one remote sensor:
   The sensor has a channel number displayed on it, next to the temperature. Make sure that that Channel Number displayed on sensor matches the channel number shown on the display. If they do not match, refer to your User Manual on how to switch the channel display.
2. It is possible the temperature or humidity were adjusted or calibrated unintentionally. Refer to your individual User Manual on how to remove or correct the adjustment from the console.

   Here is an example:

• Remote sensor reads 70.0
• Console for the same sensor channel reads 71.2
• Adjust the console down 1.2 degrees to match 70.0.

If the sensor(s) have stopped communicating to your console,  it may be as simple as placing the remote(s) (powered up) about 10 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 resync.

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. To replace under warranty, please visit: www.AmbientWeather.com/rma.html

1. Replace the batteries. We recommend the following batteries:
   My Rechargeable Batteries No Longer Work. Which Batteries Are Recommended For My Weather Station?
2. Clean any corrosion around and on the battery terminals.
3. If the problem persists, the sensor array must be replaced. We have a one year warranty. To replace under warranty, please visit:www.AmbientWeather.com/rma.html
4. If out of warranty, a replacement array can be purchased at AmbientWeather.com

If the sensor displays “OF” and the console displays “LL”or “HH.H”, the senor must be replaced.

The low voltage icon or indicator will be present on the console next to the sensor reading if the voltage falls below 2.4 Volts.

If you own more than one sensor, make sure the first sensor is on Channel 1 and the second sensor is on Channel 2.

To set the dip switches, please reference:

How Do I Set The Channel Number Using The Dip Switches In The Sensor?

Next, place all remote sensors about 10′ from the console, and then power down and up the display console. Do not touch any buttons for several minutes, until the search icon  on the display turns off.

If the problem persists, change the channel 2 sensor to channel 1 and visa versa (switch both sensor channels) and repeat the process above. Does the problem follow the sensor, or does it remain on channel 2?

If the sensor problem remains on Channel 2, the console will need to be replaced.

If the sensor problem moves to Channel 1, the sensor will need to be replaced.

Floating Pool & Spa Thermometer loses reception

1. Sensor placement is important, since the wireless signal cannot pass through Earth or ground.  Tethering the sensor to the side of the pool that is line of sight to the sensor is recommended:
   
2. Keep the console away from any electronic radiating sources, like phones, TVs and computers.
3. If the sensor(s) have stopped communicating to your console,  it may be as simple as placing the remote(s) (powered up) about 10 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 resync. 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.
