Distance: It may also be that the distance between the transmitter and
the receiver is too great or has too many obstacles between the units to
allow the signal to reach the transmitter.
Rain is inaccurate
Interference: Are there sources of radio frequency or electromagnetic
interference near the Base or the Rain sensor? Ham radios, Baby
monitors, Cordless Phones, etc can cause loss of signal or erratic
readings.
Mounting: Is the rain gauge mounted level? If mounted with screws
through the base, please be sure they are only snug and not too tight.
Accuracy Test:
To test any La Crosse Technology rain gauge, follow these steps:
1. Erase the Total rainfall or make note of this amount.
2. Pour water into the gauge very slowly until it clicks exactly ten
times
3. Allow a minimum of ten minutes for this "rainfall" to accumulate,
and check the amount listed on the Total rainfall counter
4. Your total should be .19 inches.
Please follow the Proper Restart listed above.
Wind Sensor
Wind speed inaccurate: Is the wind speed reading 0.00 or dashes or
something else? Do the cups spin freely? Are the cups clear of insect
nests leaves etc? Do all the other sensors work properly?
Mounting: Where is your wind sensor mounted and how high is it
above the ground? In most cases, the sensor needs to be 3-4ft above
the highest point on your roof in order to clear nearby obstructions and
read accurately. The wind cups need to be installed below the
mounting bracket. If possible please also email a few pictures of your
sensor installation and the surrounding area to this address
support@lacrossetechnology.com
.
Cord: Check that the wind cord is in good repair, free of cuts, animal
bites, pinch marks etc. Be sure it is secured from blowing around, by
twist ties or zip ties. Do not use staples. Did you shorten, lengthen,
splice or modify the cord in any way?
Check that the port on the Thermo-hygro sensor where the wind cord
plugs in free of corrosion or bent wires.
Interference: Are there sources of radio frequency or electromagnetic
interference near the Base or the Wind sensor? Ham radios, Baby
monitors, Cordless Phones, etc can cause loss of signal or erratic
readings.
Direction is stuck but speed is correct:
46
Check that nothing is binding the wind vane. Is it sticking in one
particular direction? Check sources of interference above.
Direction is incorrect speed is fine:
Be sure to observe the Directions listed on the sensor (N, S, E, W) The
point of the vane will tell you where the wind is coming from.
The large arrow on the compass rose of the base station will tell you the
average of where the direction was coming from in the past 4.5 second
update. The smaller arrows if they appear, indicate the directional
changes during that same period.
Direction is fine but there is no Wind speed:
Check that the cups are there and spinning freely.
Please follow the Proper Restart listed above.
