Re: Dropping link to external sensors

Sorry I have not replied sooner, been away from the computer. I have replaced the antenna wire as ntinos suggested. I went for the longer option as that makes it easier to cut down later if necessary without re-soldering. So I replaced the original 22.3cm with a 44.6cm wire taken from a CAT 5 networ...

Re: Dropping link to external sensors

Thank you for your continued interest. I have plucked up the courage to dismantle my console and hope I have successfully attached two pictures to this post for you to look at. The first shows the rear of the circuit board and the way the antenna is mounted inside the console and the second the fron...

Re: Dropping link to external sensors

I have looked in the manual and found the Specifications for Outdoor data where it says: Frequency: 433MHz/868MHz This is not very helpful !

Re: Dropping link to external sensors

Hi Alan and ntinos Thank you both for your comments. You both know more about the way the hardware works than I do. I am tempted to try ntinos suggestion of improving the antenna in the receiver if I can be brave enough to take it apart! If I do fit a longer antenna wire - exactly 34.6cm long as you...

Re: Dropping link to external sensors

Hi Alan Thanks for replying. I have 'studied' this behaviour for the last few months before posting here. In reply to your thoughts: The base unit has small icon on the display (bottom right between the humidity figures) that lights momentarily when it is communicating with the external sensors. It ...

Dropping link to external sensors

I have a Smartweather WH2080. It arrived last Christmas and worked perfectly until June (so about 6 months of operation). It suddenly started to loose communication with its external sensors. This has nothing to do with the link to the PC or Cumulus as it happens regardless of whether the base unit ...
