Outside Humidity Blank

Post by ian e »

The outside humidity reading has go blank on my NG96Y units, I have been up on the roof and replaced the batteries in the sender but still no Humidity. it shows this "--" where the digits should be.

I don't believe the base is the issue as I have two Base units are they both are missing.

Has anyone else had this ?

Thanks Ian

I've had that with mine. Sometimes it's lost contact with the transmitter altogether, and then of course all the outside readings disappear, but also sometimes just the humidity goes to dashes. And then later it comes back again. Reading the data in Cumulus gives a value of 255/$FF, which is the usual 'no data' value.

Its back !! I think the 3/4 days of mist very high humidity and saturation probably over whelmed the sensor.

(I imagine the electrical path through condensation was going around the sensor rather than through it.)

Thanks for responding .
