setting is ON:
Should the air pressure drop equal or below the pre-set inHg value
within the last 6 hour period, then the downward tendency arrow will
flash as an indication of possible storm. The base station will take
hourly measurements as a point of reference. The storm-warning
indicator will stop flashing once the air pressure becomes more
stable.
Master Alarm – BUZZER OFF
The time and all the weather alarms may have buzzer sound set to
OFF by holding the MINUS (-) key down for about 3 seconds in
normal display mode and the BUZZER OFF icon appears on the
bottom left of the LCD. When the BUZZER OFF is displayed, the
time and all other weather alarms when activated will only flash but
not sound regardless if that particular alarm has been set to the ON.
To deactivate the BUZZER OFF, press the MINUS (-) key once more.
General Alarm Icon
The general alarm icon on the bottom right corner of the LCD will
appear when any weather alarm is activated to show the user that a
set weather condition has been reached. The activated alarm can be
determined by checking the set alarm values against the MIN/MAX
values reached. To deactivate the general weather alarm icon, press
the ALARM key.
Important
When entering the alarm set mode for a specific weather or
temperature condition, the corresponding alarm is automatically
enabled (ON) when the SET key is pressed, regardless of its previous
setting and the alarm value will flash to indicate that it has been
activated. Press the ALARM key to confirm the setting and continue
pressing the ALARM key to toggle through each alarm mode until it
returns to the normal display mode or press the MIN/MAX key at any
time to exit the alarm setting modes.
When a set weather alarm condition has been activated, that
particular alarm will sound and flash for approximately 2 minutes but
will continue to flash until weather conditions have become more
steady.
Weather Alarms
The weather alarms are settable for when certain weather conditions
are met according to the users requirements. For example, the user
can set the thresholds for the outdoor temperature to +86°F (high)
and 14°F (low), while only enabling the high alarm and disabling the
low alarm (i.e. temperatures <-14°F won’t trigger alarm, but
temperatures >+86°F will).
