1 - Test your sensor's battery and ensure there is power. If the battery is dead, replace it with a 3.6 volt lithium-ion battery. This looks identical to a standard AA battery, however a standard AA is 1.5 volts and will not power the sensor.

2 - Ensure the sensor address in your display or Windy App to ensure the sensor address that is programmed is matching the sensor address on the sensor label. Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions on how to access the sensor address.

3 - Ensure the sensor is not in sleep mode. Turn the cups the wake up the sensor. The sensor automatically shuts off after a few minutes of inactivity.

4 - Investigate the signal strength. On the display there is a dB level displayed. The higher the number, the weaker the signal. If the number reaches 100 dB or higher, the signal is considered poor. The signal can travel through walls, however the density of the material can factor into the signal. If there is multiple walls or buildings in between the sensor and the signal, consider moving the display and/or the sensor to an improved line of sight to the sensor. You can also reduce the range of the sensor to see if this provides connection.

-105 dB is approximately the limit where display unit stops receiving
-100 dB and lower means very weak signal
-95 to -90 dB is considered acceptable
-85 dB and lower is a good signal


We also sell extended range antennas and signal repeaters if you need more range.

The 3.6 lithium-ion battery that comes with the sensor typically last up to 1 year during repeated use. If you need replacements visit our Anemometer Parts collection for a quick and easy purchase to ensure you are getting the right battery.

Yes, the sensors are wind tunnel calibrated at the manufacturing facility. The digital technology inside the sensor along with the water-proof wind cups bearings means these sensors do not need an annual calibration. You will receive a wind tunnel calibration report with your sensor when you purchase it online.

If you are looking to measure your anemometers performance, the most cost efficient way is to purchase a new set of wind cup bearings and compare your anemometers performance with the new bearings vs. the current bearings.

We sell these bearings in our Anemometer Parts collection.

Unfortunately, no. Each anemometer readout display is only capable of receiving data from 1 sensor at any given time. You can however have multiple displays reading the same sensor, if you want to have the readout display in multiple locations.

Cleaning can be done with a soft tissue or a cloth soaked in mild detergent. Never use aggressive solvents or cleaners. Make sure to be gentle when cleaning the cups in order not to damage the cup arms.

Remove the wind cups and check the integrity of the bearing. If the sensor has ever been dropped, the impact could damage the bearings. The bearings may need to be replaced.

You can purchase the bearings in our Anemometer Parts collection.
