The time can be set in seconds within the range of 0 - 1024 (0 = no averaging
time).

For example:

>FILT <cr>
Filter (S):

0 ? 1024

>

>FILT 100 <cr>
Filter (S):

100

>

PRES

Setting the pressure for mixing ratio and wet bulb
temperature calculations

PRES pppp.pp <cr>

pppp.pp =

pressure (hPa)

The atmospheric pressure has an effect on mixing ratio and wet bulb
temperature. Therefore, accurate calculations can be achieved only when the
ambient pressure is taken into consideration. The pressure is used for pressure
compensation of the HUMICAP

sensor in order to ensure the best possible

measurement accuracy.

When the command is given, the transmitter first gives the currently used
pressure; after this a new value can be entered or the old one acknowledged.

>PRES <cr>
Pressure : 1013.25 ? 1000.00 <cr>

When the currently used pressure is known, a new pressure can also be entered
directly:

>PRES 1010 <cr>
Pressure : 1010

NOTE

If the pressure setting is frequently adjusted, e.g. by
using an external barometer as a pressure input source,
the command XPRES is recommended.
