RAINFALL MEASUREMENT
The 1hour, 24-hour, week, month or total rainfall measurement is displayed on the LCD, in the
unit of inch or mm.
For all measurements, it is important time and date are set correctly on your display.
• 1-HOUR RAIN: The 1-hour rain reflects rain that has fallen from current time and back 1-
hour. It updates every four minutes (15 measurements). The hour is not a fixed clock time
measurement. It is literally an ongoing “last 60 minutes” timer.
• 24-HOUR RAIN: The 24-hour rain reflects the rain that has fallen from current time and back
24-hours. This is not a midnight to midnight measurement. The day is not a fixed clock time
measurement. It is literally an ongoing “last 24 hours” timer.
• WEEKLY RAIN: The amount of rainfall of the previous week. The rainfall measurement
starts counting on the second day after power up. (Eg: if the unit is powered up on Monday
day time, then the weekly rainfall is updated every Tuesday after 11:59 pm (23:59)). It is
recommended to disregard the first weekly rain reading.
• MONTHLY RAIN: Monthly rain reflects the previous month’s rain and will update 12AM the
first day of the month.
• TOTAL RAIN: Total rain will remain until you manually reset this value. Total rain reflects the
rain from time of display set-up until you manually reset the total rain.
Note: You must start a new history file on the PC, if you reset the Total Rainfall on the
weather station to avoid inaccuracies.
Note: RESET RAIN: Press and release the MIN/MAX button until the display shows the Total
Rainfall value. Press
the ▲/DATE button. The total rainfall amount will be reset to 0, and the
time updated to current time.
