Problem 

Solution 

 
Select the absolute pressure. Make sure you properly 
calibrate the sensor to an official local weather station. 
Reference Section 5.1.4 for details. 
 
The barometer is only accurate to ± 0.08 inHg within the 
following relative pressure range: 27.13 to 32.50 inHg, 
which corresponds to an altitude of -2,200 to 2,700 feet.   
At higher altitudes, expect some non-linearity or error. 

Rain gauge reports rain when it is not 
raining 

An unstable mounting solution (sway in the mounting 
pole) may result in the tipping bucket incorrectly 
incrementing rainfall. Make sure you have a stable 
mounting solution. Move the rain gauge from the pole 
mount to a flat, stable mount (fixed, flat structure). 

Barometer graph flashes. Can I turn this 
off? 

No, this feature prevents burn in of the display monitor. 

Wind speed appears low 

Average wind speed may have the appearance of low 
wind. Try switching the display to wind gust. 

Can the lamp be turned on all of time? 

No, to prevent the bulb from burning out, it can only turn 
on temporarily. 

The forecast icon is not accurate 

The weather station console must run for several days to 
trend barometric pressure. 
 
The weather forecast is an estimation or generalization of 
weather  changes  in  the  next  24  to  48  hours,  and  varies 
from  location  to location. The tendency  is simply a tool 
for  projecting  weather  conditions  and  is  never  to  be 
relied upon as an accurate method to predict the weather.
