The database file is stored at C:/users/public/weathersmart/easy2300.mdb

  • You can open this file directly using Excel.

  • The filename is “easy2300.sqlite”. There are resources for accessing this file at sqlite.org and sqlitebrowser.org.

What is the battery life of the Solar Powered Sensor?

Typical battery life for the solar powered sensor array is 2+ years, and for controller is 1 year.

The sensor array changed on my TPW3000WC, the anemometer is now on top. Why was this changed?

We changed the location of the anemometer from the bottom to the top of the sensor array around March 2019. We did this to improve the accuracy of the wind speed measurement.

The remote transmitter stopped working in cold weather

We recommend using only Ever-Ready Lithium batteries or equivalent AA batteries in cold temperatures.

The remote sensor is not transmitting to the display console
  • Remove the batteries from the outdoor transmitter and display console. Cover the solar panel temporarily.
  • Power up the transmitter with new batteries and uncover the solar panel.
  • Wait 10 minutes then power up display.
  • Do not press any buttons during the 1-minute power up time.

You should then have outdoor readings after about 3-5minutes.

The rain gauge stopped recording rain

Open the rain gauge housing by unsnapping the cover. Check inside to make sure there is nothing obstructing the movement of the mechanism. It is common for insects to nest inside.

The rain gauge is recording rain when it’s not raining

This occurs when the rain gauge vibrates in high winds. Consider moving it closer to the ground and to a more stable mounting platform.

The display changed on my TP3000WC Wireless Weather Station

The original units had a display with a green backlight. We changed the display type around December 2018 to a new display with illuminated digits on a bluish background. This type of display is easier to see in all kinds of lighting conditions. Since the display must be powered up via the 5V adapter to enable the WiFi functionality, it made sense to change to a display so that it was easier to read.

My temperature is reading too high during the day

Relocate the temperature sensor/transmitter to a shady spot or provide local shade for it.

My rain gauge has frozen

The rain gauge may freeze up in winter. The ice/snow will not damage the rain gauge and it will start working again after it thaws.

My Pro Weather Station was damaged during a storm. Do you sell replacement parts?

Yes, we do. Replacement parts are available for sale on our website “https://tycononline.com

My anemometer is freezing up during icy weather

Use an automotive lock de-icer spray. Only a couple of short sprays are required.

How far can the controller be from the sensor array?
