Bulletin

The bulletin provides a graphic representation of current weather conditions
(with the numeric reading displayed as well) which updates in real-time.
For all bar graphs (outside temperature, for example), highs and lows are repre-
sented by yellow lines which appear above the bar (high) or within the bar (low).
When you first open the bulletin window, the software prompts you to indicate
whether you want to download highs and lows from the station. Downloading
highs and lows causes the software to read highs and lows from the weather sta-
tion and display them on the weather bulletin. If you download highs and lows it
takes a bit longer to open the bulletin window. If you do not download highs and
lows, the highs and lows shown in the bulletin window will only reflect the highs
and lows recorded while the bulletin is open. As long as the bulletin is open, the
software automatically updates highs and lows as they occur. (If a scheduled
Auto Clear occurs while the bulletin is open, any high or low that is cleared on the
console is also cleared on the bulletin.)
The bulletin displays a line graph of barometric pressure over the past six hours.
When you first open the bulletin window, the software graphs the current baro-
metric pressure and any barometric pressure data which exists in your database
for the past six hours. While the bulletin is open, the software plots another point
on this graph every 15 minutes.
