Hi, just bought a JemRF wireless switch. Without anything connected to it, haven't soldered anything on to it, it keeps sending data as shown below. What could be the cause of this? Changed battery to know it's not restarting cause of that.

Looks like possibly a dry solder joint on the button sensor contact. Might have come loose in shipping. See the red circle in the attached picture. If you have a soldering iron try re-solder that joint. Also make sure there are no strands of wire between the button contacts that could be causing a short. Alternately contact JemRF Sales for return/replace.
