I. WEATHER FORECAST
The weather forecasting feature is estimated to be 75% accurate and is for the next 12 to 24 hours. The
weather forecast is based solely upon the change of air pressure over time. The WS-9043U averages past
air-pressure readings to provide an accurate forecast—creating a necessity to disregard all weather
forecasting for 12-24 hours after the unit has been set-up, reset, or moved from one altitude to another
(i.e. from one floor of a building to another floor). In areas where the weather is not largely affected by
the change of air pressure, the sensitivity setting should be set to 1. In areas where the air pressure
changes more rapidly (such as coastal areas) the sensitivity setting should be set to 3.
A. WEATHER ICONS
There are 3 possible weather icons that will be displayed in the FORECAST LCD:
Sunny —indicates that the weather is expected to improve (not that the weather will be sunny).
Sun with Clouds —indicates that the weather is expected to be fair (not that the weather will be
sunny with clouds).
Clouds with Rain —indicates that the weather is expected to get worse (not that the weather will
be rainy).
These icons indicate the expected weather change in the next 12 to 24 hours. The icon does not
give an exact prediction of the weather, however it should be viewed as a generalization of the
expected weather change (for example a “sunny” icon indicates the weather is expected to
improve).
The weather icons change when the unit detects a change in air pressure. The icons change in
order, from “sunny” to “partly sunny” to “cloudy” or the reverse. It will not change from
