Do you mean that you believe that the console is wrong, or that the console is is correct but Cumulus is showing the wrong value?

See if it comes down by blowing air over it with a fan, it may just be getting some heat build up from the electronics/backlight.

You can apply a fixed offset on the Cumulus calibration settings screen.

Hi,

Not as far as I know. I'm not sure that anybody has even "found" the temperature sensor for certain, but it's probably part of the humidity sensor. Do you think the humidity reading also might be wrong?

There's probably not much that can be done, although somebody did swap their humidity sensors between Console and Transmitter (to get their external humidity reading correct again, at the expense of the internal value). Nearly all that's known about the Console hardware is in this sticky thread.

Cheers, Alan.
