in most areas of the country, however in areas with relatively constant pressure this should be set to 
.06, (within 30 miles of the coast) and in areas with significant pressure changes this should be set to 
0.12 (within 30 miles of the desert). Press the ▲/DATE or ▼/RAIN button to adjust. Press and 
release the SET button to confirm and continue.

Up Arrow:

 

 

Press and release to switch between Date and Seconds displayed.  

 

Hold until the station beeps to resync with sensors. 

 

Down Arrow:

 

 

Press and release to view 1-hour, 24-hour, 1-week, 1-month or Total Rainfall.  

 

Hold to resync the display with the gateway. 

 

Pressure inaccurate 
 

  Enter the 

program menu

 to select the pressure unit of measure (

inHg

 is common in the USA) and set 

the actual Relative Pressure numbers on the display. The unit can set it to a known value from the 
local reporting station. 
 

Forecast Icons inaccurate 
 

  The weather forecasting feature is estimated to be 70% accurate. The weather forecast is based 

solely upon the change of air pressure over time.  

  The icons are predicting 12-24 hours in the future, not current conditions. It may be sunny out your 

window, but the pressure is falling so the forecast station will show clouds with rain icon.
