BUTTON FUNCTIONS
Programmable Weather Alarms
Each Selectable Weather Category features an alarm option. When an alarm
sounds, the display unit emits audible beeping and flashes the affected category,
its alarm settings, and any other relevant data.
Some alarms can be customized to alert you when your programmed value is
reached. Alarms include: outdoor temperature, outdoor humidity, wind speed,
heat index, dew point, wind chill, indoor temperature and indoor humidity.
The rain alarm does not require a preset numerical value, but instead sounds
as soon as rain is recorded. Similarly, the storm alarm sounds when a large
atmospheric pressure drop occurs, which usually indicates an oncoming storm.
Note: The storm alarm is NOT intended to be a safety device or warning system.
