Programmable Weather Alarms
Each Selectable Weather Category features an alarm option. When an alarm
sounds, the display 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 HUMIDITY LOW HIGH
OUTDOOR TEMP LOW HIGH
STORM ALARM HIGH
INDOOR HUMIDITY LOW HIGH
INDOOR TEMP LOW HIGH
WIND CHILL LOW
DEW POINT LOW HIGH
HEAT INDEX HIGH
RAIN HIGH
WIND SPEED HIGH
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.
