Color Screen Weather Station User Manual
Note:
In the Set mode, press the
TEMP./+
key or
BARO./-
key to change or scroll the value.
Hold the
TEMP./+
key or
BARO./-
key for 3 seconds to increase/decrease rapidly.
Note:
Press the
LIGHT/SNOOZE
key (or wait 30 seconds for the programming mode to timeout),
and the Set Mode will return to Normal Mode.
5.2 Check Barometric Pressure
While in normal mode, press
BARO./-
to check the barometric pressure. Press the
BARO./-
button to switch to past 12hr/24hr/48hr/72hr average pressure, if key idle 30 seconds, will return
to normal mode.
While in normal mode, Press and hold the
BARO./-
button for 2 seconds you can switch
between absolute (ABS) pressure and relative (REL) pressure.
The display console displays two different pressures: absolute (measured) and relative (corrected
to sea-level).
To compare pressure conditions from one location to another, meteorologists correct pressure to
sea-level conditions. Because the air pressure decreases as you rise in altitude, the sea-level
corrected pressure (the pressure your location would be at if located at sea-level) is generally
higher than your measured pressure.
Thus, your absolute pressure may read 28.62 inHg (969 mb) at an altitude of 1000 feet (305 m),
but the relative pressure is 30.00 inHg (1016 mb).
The standard sea-level pressure is 29.92 in Hg (1013 mb). This is the average sea-level pressure
around the world. Relative pressure measurements greater than 29.92 inHg (1013 mb) are
considered high pressure and relative pressure measurements less than 29.92 inHg are
considered low pressure.
To determine the relative pressure for your location, locate an official reporting station near you
(the internet is the best source for real time barometer conditions, such as Weather.com or
Wunderground.com), and set your weather station to match the official reporting station.
5.3 Check Dew point
While in normal mode, Press the
TEMP./+
button to view dew point in outdoor temperature
segment. If key idle 30 seconds, will return to normal mode.
5.4 ALARM Mode
While in normal mode, Press
ALARM
button to enter ALARM mode.
