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.

weather station to avoid inaccuracies.

weather data with time and date of recording. Press and release the MIN/MAX button to view 
the following stored maximum and minimum weather data: 
 

1.  MIN/MAX indoor temperature with the date and time of recording 
2.  MIN/MAX indoor humidity with the date and time of recording 
3.  MIN/MAX outdoor temperature with the date and time of recording 
4.  MIN/MAX dew point temperature with the date and time of recording 
5.  MIN/MAX outdoor humidity with the date and time of recording
