No outside humidity reading.
« on: June 17, 2016, 04:12:50 AM »
Hi all....I don't have any outside humidity data on my Vantage Pro2.
ISS 6152, everything else is OK.
Is IT the temp/hum sensor or maybe the OV transmitter board...how to pinpoint?

This is an older model...could a firmware upgrade do some good?
Thank's in advance 👍😎

Frank.

My guess is the sensor failed. I have had several go bad and they showed no humidity but temp was ok.

Frank you know the new Davis SHT31's have really dropped down in price & no longer $120. Scaled Instruments has them at $45 after making an account and logging in now.
You would need to add  -.9 offset to work with older than Jan 2016 manufactured transmitter. Very accurate units +/- .5F and 2% humidity. I've been running an older transmitter and new transmitter without the offset and both follow within .2 of each other when side by side tested.
