The top left outdoor temperature on the Sainlogic FT-0310 may display dashes due to signal issues between the remote sensor and the display console. Possible reasons include:
1. The remote sensor is too far from the display console.
2. There is interference from electrical devices like computers or TVs.
3. The sensor needs time to stabilize (up to one hour).
4. The sensor is not positioned properly (e.g., blocked by obstacles).

Solutions:
- Move the sensor closer to the console.
- Reduce interference from electronic devices.
- Allow time for the sensor to stabilize.
- Ensure the sensor has fresh batteries.

  • Page 36: Weather Forecasting

    15.1 Weather Forecasting Note: The weather forecast or pressure tendency is based on the rate of change of bar- ometric pressure. In general, when the pressure increases, the weather improves (sunny to partly cloudy) and when the pressure decreases, the weather degrades (cloudy to rain). The weather forecast is an estimation or generalization of weather changes in the next 24 to 48 hours, and varies from location to location.
