You have a brand new unit! Why should you play detective and probably wait weeks for a solution? .... I would try our suggestions above first.
Those are also "detective" measures. But, along with you, I favor trying some initial troubleshooting measures first, rather than imposing on Ryan's fantastic reliability and service.
OTOH, consulting Ryan would be a good move.
Or - following directions available here in the forum - perhaps crawdad62 could make his own anemometer test cable. See this thread:
http://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=26648.msg256684#msg256684I believe that it is unlikely that the problem lies in the console. Most likely the anemometer-or-cable.
Perhaps following the instructions in the console manual would help?
For instance, Page 34, "Wind speed reads 0 either
all the time or intermittently"
"The problem may be with the anemometer. Test anemometer
by spinning wind cups. Check reed switch fields on diagnostic
screen (see page 37)"
