    just in case ,if you interested with more info about
    Careful Weather Station Set Up is the Key to Rewarding Weather Observation here
    are some thoughts and recommendations.

    Because getting the most out of your weather station depends on three very
    important factors, all linked to each other.

    Firstly, the outside weather sensors must be set up to get the most accurate and
    reliable weather information possible from your yard or home.

    Secondly, the weather sensors and receivers must be able to communicate with
    each other with as little interference as possible.

    And finally, the receiver with its display unit must be in a convenient
    position for you to access it and use it. You may need to give some thought to
    linking it with a computer or other equipment as well.

    Location of the Receiver/Display Console
    The best place to set up your sensors is in an accessible place in your yard or
    garden.

    So take a good look around. You will need to find a clear location for the
    sensors, preferably out of the way ofeveryday attractions like basketball
    rings, barbecues or swimming pools. It should have a clear line of sight to a
    room where you can install the receiver. The receiver's location should also be
    out of the way of normal home activities. And I'm not ignoring the possibility
    that some members of your household may not view the weather station with as
    much enthusiasm as you do.
    The best choice may be your office or study, or the room where your computer
    already is. If this is handy to an appropriate location for your outside
    weather sensors, then you're in great shape. But don't do anything just yet.

    If the layout of your house and yard is not quite so helpful, it is probably
    best to tackle the problem from the other direction and consider sensor
    locations.

    But before we step outside, here's a quick tip on the positioning of the
    receiver. Because radio signals are reduced by walls, cladding, even UV coating
    on windows, the best position for your receiver is near the outside wall of the
    house. Most receivers have optional wall or desk mounting, giving you quite a
    lot of flexibility

    The Ideal Places for Weather Sensors
    Your first thoughts should be about distance between sensors and the receiver.
    Transmitting range varies from 80 feet (24 metres) for many temperature
    sensors, to 300 feet (about 90m) or even 1000 feet (300m) for Davis home
    weather stations. Each wall the signal needs to pass through will cut the range
    by 20-30 feet, and trees can also reduce signal range. Normally the longer
    range transmitters will perform well in most home situations, but be aware of
    the limitations on the short range units.

    The ideal requirements for temperature and humidity sensors are different from
    those recording wind and rainfall, so some juggling of the final position may
    be required. Most home weather stations will give you quite a bit of room to
    move here, with each sensor having its own transmitter, or through cabling from
    wind and rainfall sensors to a single transmitter in the temperature/humidity
    unit.

    The main consideration here is that temperature recorders must be sheltered or
    shielded from direct or strongly reflected sunlight, which will heat them up and
    result in inaccurate readings, 20°F or more too high, or maybe even damage
    them. Conversely, wind and rainfall recorders should be located where wind and
    rain are not affected by sheltering trees or buildings.

    And finally, the lip of the rain gauge should be the highest point in the
    immediate vicinity - slightly above the top of a wall or post rather than a
    little way down.

    While some compromise may be necessary, with a bit of thought you should be able
    to find a good location for all the equipment.
    My regards..

My figure has DigiTech XC-0366 wireless weather station is not collecting the outdoor temperature

Your 'figure'??

Normally it has to be done in order. Remove both lots of batteries. Put the base unit batteries in first and then put in the outside unit batteries. they should pair. In fact the manual states that.

Instructions:
- Open the battery compartment on the weather station and insert 2 x AA
batteries, taking care to put them in the correct polarity. Close the battery
compartment.
- Open the battery compartment on the transmitter and insert 2 x AA batteries,
taking care to put them in the correct polarity. Close the battery
compartment.
Note: Ensure to install the batteries into the weather station and transmitter
within the same hour to ensure that they synchronize properly.

Reset oregon scientific weather station

Hi,
I always have trouble getting mine to work after changing the batteries, but I have just managed to get it going by doing the following:
taking batteries out of main unit
putting new battery in remote unit and pressing remote unit reset button
re-inserting batteries in main unit and pressing reset button.

i think the trick is to ensure that the batteries go in the remote unit first, then the main unit after that. It has taken me days to work this out!

Auriol 4-LD3091 weather station will not pick up sensor

I had the same problem and gave up on the unit for a while, then I had another attempt and found this worked for me. Take the batteries out of both units (receiver and outside sender) then reinsert the batteries BUT put the batteries into the outside sender unit FIRST, this seems to make the difference as when you then put the batteries into the indoor base-station it detects the outside temperature signal immediately as it starts to set itself up .

IS ONLY PICKING UP STATIC RADIO SIGNAL. ALL STATIONS

Yes you have to have an antenna. Does the car not have one originally? If you changed the radio you would have unhooked a large black wire in the back of it. Or maybe it just came unplugged. Anyways without one it won't pick up ****. Good luck

Cannot get the weather station model ws-916ou-it to show outside temperature

I have three of these WS-916OU-IT units. After a few years, the outside sensor just fails. You will get dashes and a "TR" low battery signal, even if the batteries are good
just buy another whole weather station (short money) and set both the old and new weather station unit to receive from the single new outdoor sensor.
To do this - just follow the procedure for a single sensor - that is - put the batteries in the new sensor - then within 30 seconds - put the batteries in all the weather stations - they will all pick up the same outdoor sensor.
I now have three units running off of one outdoor sensor.
Seems a bit silly, but it works.

You have to push some buttons to tell the MAIN unit to scan, then put battery into the REMOTE, set channel, and hit reset through a little hole. And the MAIN should see it.

The weather Forecast Icons don't change on my honeywell weather station model # TE852W

Hi,

This problem could arise due to various reasons
1)Replace the batteries in remote sensors
When the batteries are properly installed, the remote weather sensor will resume sending signals to the main unit.To enforce an immediate remote signals search, press and hold
DOWN on the main unit.

2)Remote thermo-hygrometer sensor could be weak in sending the signal about weather Forecast.Test it properly.

3)Reset the unit and check


post a comment for further assistance.
Thank you for using fixya have a nice day:-)

Acu-Rite 00754 Wireless Weather Station manual

The main thing with this unit is to put the batteries in the transmitter first, then in the base receiving unit. Then you can't really make any setting changes until the unit figures out the correct time through the radio signals it receives from Colorado, or wherever they come from.

Dashes in my outdoor weather reading of Oregon Scientific station

The signals are not being received by the main unit. Try to reposition the unit or move it to a different location. Also make sure the antenna is in the clear and not next to any thing like a cordess phone or charger as these can make RF noise that can block or cover the needed signals.
