Problems with main temp sensor after adding additional sensor

Hello,

I’m running version 10.19S and have a WMR968. I added an extra sensor over christmas, an indoor THG unit. Since then, my main sensor temperature is off by up to 2.5 degrees! I’ve restarted WD, and it had no effect.

Currently my main temp/hygro sensor reads 46deg/91% humidity on the base unit and 48.4/91 on the WD display.

Any thoughts?

Brian? Anyone?

so maybe wd is now using that extra temp/hum sensor instead
check which temp sensor number you have set to use in the wmr968 view data…?

Nope, that’s not it.

The extra sensor is an indoors sensor and it read somewhere in the 60s when I posted last night. The main THG sensor is just plain off, and I have no idea why. It is happening somewhere between the base station and my computer. I’d guess it’s HD as the console reads just fine.

WD has no errors in the error log, I checked it as soon as I noticed the problem.

this new sensor you have which channel have you put it on as you can only put it on 1, 2 or 3
the main thg sensor you refer to i assume is the outside temp/hum unit and not the indoor baro thg
have you told WD that you have extra sensors

The “main” thermometer I’m referring to is the outside TH unit. The indoor unit is an add on THG unit. I will try changing channels perhaps. The addon sensor was properly added in the extra sensor menu in WD.

sounds like you may be loosing contact with the outside TH, this can stop WD getting data but still give a reading on base unit WD will use last reading and will give flat line graph

Actually, I figured the problem out. My Console never went back to reading current outside temp and was instead displaying the Dew point.

Problem solved.
