Barometer showing HHH wmr200A
« on: February 07, 2012, 04:58:18 PM »

I'm getting a "HHH" on my main display unit in the Pressure section.  According to the manual the main unit AND sensor needs to be reset.  I did this, and it worked for a short while, now it's back to HHH.   The temperature reading is fine, so it shouldn't be out of range (which is what HHH indicated).   Sensor going bad? Anyone seen this too?

Yes, you are right! Double checked the manual after reading this and max is indeed 1050.  We've had high pressure for days now... My software does graph above 1050 however...strange.

Manual states max reading is 1050 but it actually does go beyond that...not sure how far thou, but seen readings up to 1053.

Is it possable to adjust the elevation in the console then put an offset in the Weather software? I'd try that.
I live in an apartment and for the moment am not a home weather watcher.

I am a storm chaser.

What I meant was, the wmr console does show above 1050 as well.  But how high I didn't see, but it definitely displays up to 1053.  Elevation and such is all set ok... I haven't seen the HHH since btw...
