Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No display on main unit. | Batteries are dead or incorrectly inserted; USB cable not connected or faulty. | Check battery polarity and replace if necessary. Ensure USB cable is securely connected to a working power source. |
| Outdoor temperature/humidity not displayed or inaccurate. | Sensor out of range; sensor batteries dead; incorrect channel selected; interference. | Move sensor closer to the main unit. Replace sensor batteries. Press "CH" button to select the correct channel. Avoid placing near large metal objects or strong electromagnetic sources. |
| Backlight not staying on (when battery powered). | Normal operation for battery mode. | The backlight is designed to turn off after 20 seconds to conserve battery. For continuous backlight, use USB power. |
| Weather forecast inaccurate. | Weather forecast is based on internal barometric pressure changes, not external data. | The weather station predicts weather for the next 12-24 hours based on atmospheric pressure trends. It may not always match local weather reports. Allow time for the unit to calibrate. |
