Welcome to our forum.
I love my spa monitor. I got it as a Christmas gift from my sister as it was not standard on my 05 Epic. However...I am getting some kind of weird interference.Does anyone know anything about IR or different raido frequencies? The monitor will beep when it loses signal with the spa. It must monitor the spa for temp to alert you to drop in temp or problems. My monitor will lose contact very often, but always in the middle of the night. Not in the day...So it will beep and when I check, the temp is fine but the display has SPA, so it has lostthe signal from the spa. I moved the monitor to just inside of my door (approx 5 -6 feet from the spa). Last night, I got up at approx 2 am (family emergency) and the light to the spa was on. This is the third time that has happened. These weird things only happen at night and the monitor does all of the functions that it is supposed from the house (temperature change, turn on lights). I am over 100 feet away from the nearest neighbor, so it shouldn't pick up interference from them. I called Verizon to see if my FIOS line could do it, they said no, I removed all remote controls for lights. I don't know what is going on, but I am sure it has to do with something on the same frequency as the remote. Anybody have any ideas? :-/
Spiman, do you remember me asking you what your name meant? That's why...this is really driving me nuts to the point of wondering if someone is spying on me!!Drew, my neighbors are over 100 feet away from me so I doubt, they could have legitimate interference from their houses. The garage doors are a possibility, but they are about 25 feet away (and one level down) from the monitor. I may pull the plug on them next, because if I understand correctly, they tumble the signals so that they can't be copied or picked up by another garage door opener (security feature). The real perplexing thing is that this happens only at night. ...
Bonibelle,The outside spa light mysteriously turning itself on may be a separate issue. It might be unrelated to your other problems with the monitor. I don't have the spa monitor on my '05 Reward but I have many times found the spa light on for no reason. I have verified that kids have not accidentally turned it on. I have also checked that I or my wife have left it turned on after using the spa. That's unlikely as we never use the lights anyway. We prefer just the lights from the street. At first, I thought it was the cover accidentally putting pressure on the floating remote. I removed the remote and left it in the house for a few days but the outside spa light would continue to mysteriously turn itself on. It's happened at least a dozen times that we're aware of. I'm thinking it probably has happened other times assuming if it turns itself on, it will turn itself off as well. I've been debating calling my local dealer but just haven't gotten around to it. ("You say your spa lights turn on all by itself? Yeah, right.") Now I think I will call him since I'm not the only one with this problem. Thanks for mentioning it! Phil
If may only happen at night because the filter cycle is kicking in then. I would check your plug-in connection and also make sure the feed wire for the send/recive unit is not crimped in the strain relife bracket.
