I thought that it was abnormal behavior, but wanted to confirm it.
My 5-in-1 is powered by a homebrew remote battery box, which isn't exactly sealed against the elements. The wire is tie-wrapped to the top of the mast with a proper drip loop, so there is little chance of an intermittent connection in the 5-in-1's battery box. I used 16 gauge wire to limit the voltage drop. I highly doubt that it is a power problem, but the last reading on the consoles was 32 degrees and a 19 MPH wind gust about 24 hours after we had 3" of snow that was still melting.
The only other thing that I could think of is that the ABC switch was contaminated. Since I did not change the switch on the indoor consoles before resetting them, this is unlikely.
Anyway, I'll use your tip about using the ABC switch to force a re-scan when it happens next time. I spent much of September and October in the hospital, and am not exactly capable of taking down the 5-in-1 right now to poke around inside of it.....
