or the first zero from the left in 0207) and press the + and - keys to switch from
a positive to negative elevation.
Note:
You can only set the elevation to negative after you have entered a non-zero digit

Screen 12: Rain Collector
The tipping bucket in the Vantage Pro2 rain collector has been calibrated at the
factory to measure 0.01''of rain with each tip for US models, or 0.2 mm of rain
with each tip for UK and EU models. The typical user will not need to change this
screen. However, some US users may want to install a metric adapter on their ISS
so that it takes 0.2 mm readings for every tip of the bucket. If a metric adapter
has been installed on your ISS, you should also calibrate your console for metric
measurements using this screen.
