N96FY alarms during the night !!

Post by CBers »

Hi all.

I've had my N96FY Weather Station for a few months now and all has been fine until recently.

Due to the inclement weather of late, the remote console has been alarming at all times of the night and it is driving us all mad.

I have tried to change the settings but it still goes off.

Is there a guide anywhere that fully explains how to disable the alarms, or change them so that aren't triggered please, otherwise I can see if getting thrown out of the window tonight

TIA.

Just set the high and low alarm points to impossible values. Attached PDF should help.

Thanks water01 - that looks like the guide I have already.

Just going through all of the options at the moment to turn them off or set high/low as you suggest.

Can't seem to turn off the alarm for the RAIN section though :bash:

Hi,

Have you tried disabling all the alarms using the (supplied) EasyWeather software?

No need to "uninstall" Cumulus (or EasyWeather after use), just don't run them at the same time.

Cheers, Alan.
