WS-2080 Barometer stopped working
« on: September 25, 2013, 07:37:56 AM »
Hi,

I'm using a WS-2080 for almost 2 years without problems, but the barometer stopped working after I had to restart the console.  (in - out batteries)
Everything is working again except the barometer.  Any suggestions?

Thank you.

Maybe try removing the batteries again then press and hold a function button, such as "Enter", for a couple of minutes then re-insert the batteries?

Thank you, but it didn't work.
Isn't there a way to reset the station?

I had this exact same thing happen to me this morning.  ON7DE, did you ever get your barometer working?  Had a quick e-mail conversation with AW support this morning and they believe that the sensor failed and the console will need to be replaced.  Anyone else have any other suggestions to try before replacing the entire console?  My barometer was working perfectly until the station locked up and I cycled the batteries.  I've done that multiple times in the past without any issues.

Any thoughts?
