LCD SCREEN
The LCD screen is split into 5 sections displaying the following information:
1.
Time and date/ indoor temp/ second
2. Wind data
3. Outdoor temperature, Dew point and humidity,
4. Air pressure, Rainfall data, Air pressure history and Weather forecast
icon.
* When the signal from the transmitter/ or Rain sensor is successfully
received by the Weather Station, this icon will be switched on. (If not
successful, the icon will not be shown on the LCD). User can therefore
easily see whether the last reception was successful (“ON” icon) or not
(“OFF” icon). On the other hand, the short blinking of the icon shows that a
reception is being done at that time.

RELATIVE PRESSURE REFERENCE VALUE SETTING
Note:
The default reference pressure value of the barometer is 29.91inHg when
batteries are first inserted. For an exact measurement, it is necessary to
first adjust the barometer to your local relative air pressure (related to
elevation above sea level). Ask for the current atmospheric pressure of
your home area (Local weather service, www, optician, calibrated
instruments in public buildings, airport).
The relative air pressure can be manually set to another value within the
range of 27.17 to 31.90 inHg (919 to 1080 hPa) for a better reference.
1.The current relative pressure value will start flashing
2.Use the + or MIN/MAX key to increase or decrease the value. Continually
holding the key will allow the value to increase faster.
3.Confirm with the SET key and enter the WEATHER TENDENCY
SENSITIVITY VALUE SETTING.
Note:
This feature is useful for those who live at elevations above sea level, but
want their air pressure display to be based on sea level elevation.
