(Every time a new average pressure value has been obtained (once per minute), this
value is compared with an internal reference value. If the difference between these
values is bigger than the selected weather tendency sensitivity, the weather-icon
changes, either for worse or for better. In this case, the current pressure value
becomes the new weather tendency reference.)
If the icons do not change, either the air pressure has not changed or the change has
been too small for the Weather Center to register. So you may adjust the "sensitivity"
of the pressure change checking in the setting mode –see WEATHER TENDENCY
SENSITIVITY VALUE SETTING above.
However, if the icon displayed is a sun or raining cloud, there will be no change of
icon if the weather gets any better (with sunny icon) or worse (with rainy icon) since
the icons are already at their extremes.
The icons displayed forecasts the weather in terms of getting better or worse and not
necessarily sunny or rainy as each icon indicates. For example, if the current weather
is cloudy and the rainy icon is displayed, it does not mean that the product is faulty
because it is not raining. It simply means that the air pressure has dropped and the
weather is expected to get worse but not necessarily rainy.
Note:
After setting up, readings for weather forecasts should be disregarded for the next 48-
60 hours. This will allow sufficient time for the Weather station to collect air pressure
data at a constant altitude and therefore result in a more accurate forecast.
Common to weather forecasting, absolute accuracy cannot be guaranteed. The
weather forecasting feature is estimated to have an accuracy level of about 75% due
to the varying areas the Weather Center has been designed for use. In areas that
experience sudden changes in weather (for example from sunny to rain), the Weather
