USING DIFFERENT WEATHER MODES
PRESSURE AND WEATHER FORECAST MODE
It indicates the current barometric pressure, the sea level pressure, the weather forecast and the moon
phase.
A number of historical statistics can also be viewed, including the sea-level pressure for the past
24 hours, moon phase for the past and following 39 days, as well as a pressure/ temperature/ humidity
history bar-chart.
Pressure can be displayed inHg, hPa/mBar or mmHg, and altitude can be displayed in meters or feet.
(Altitude can be used to set or adjust barometric levels.)
ACCESSING PRESSURE AND WEATHER FORECAST MODE
From the main unit: Press
UP
or
DOWN
until the pressure and weather forecast icon
starts flashing.
SETTING PRESSURE PARAMETERS DURING INITIAL SETUP
IMPORTANT:
During the main unit initial setup, after main unit powered up, all of the functions in
Pressure and Weather.
Forecast mode will be locked for a short time, until the pressure settings are confirmed. The locked
display will show the pressure and weather forecast icon and abbreviation “
hPa/ mBar
” flashing.
To correctly calibrate the sea level barometric pressure, you must program the correct local altitude.
