BAR GRAPH
The bar graph displays the rainfall history. As indicated by the appearance of the
word “HISTORY” at the left-central area of the LCD screen.
The horizontal axis measures the past time periods, with “0” representing the current
day, week, or month and “6” representing the oldest information (6 days ago, 6
weeks ago, or 6 months ago). The graph reads from right to left.
The vertical axis measures the rainfall in inches. The normal (default) measurement
scale is {0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10 inches}. If, within any selected
time period (1 day, 1 week, 1 month), rainfall exceeds 20 inches the measurement
scale automatically changes to {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 100 inches}.
The bar graph will display the rainfall history either by day, week, or month. To

“WEEKLY” icon (appearing across the central position of the LCD).

columns is shifted to the left. If “WEEKLY” is selected, the graph will
