FORECAST ICONS: WHAT DO THE FORECAST ICONS MEAN?

The forecast icons predict weather condition over the next 12-hours based on the change of
atmospheric pressure with about 70-75% accuracy. As weather conditions cannot be 100%
correctly forecasted, we are not responsible for any loss caused by an incorrect forecast.
Forecast Icons:
Sunny
Partly Sunny
Cloudy
Rain
T-Storm
Note: As the Station builds memory, it will compare the current average pressure to the past
forty day average pressure for increased accuracy. The longer the Station operates in one
location the more accurate the forecast icons will be. Please allow 7-10 days for barometer
calibration.

DOES THIS STATION HAVE A BACKLIGHT?

Power Cord:
Hold the ON/OFF/BL button for 3 seconds, until the Station beeps, to turn the continuous
Backlight OFF.
Hold the ON/OFF/BL button again for 3 seconds, until the Station beeps, to turn continuous
Backlight ON.
When the Backlight is off, press any button to turn on the backlight for 8 seconds.
Batteries Only: Press any button to activate the backlight for 8 seconds.
WHY DON'T THE TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY READINGS
ON MY STATION MATCH THE WEATHER REPORT?
Your temperature and humidity readings are from your sensor at your location. Your local
reporting station can be miles away so readings will differ.

WHY DOES MY OUTDOOR SENSOR SHOW DASHES?

If the sensor loses connection to the station for any reason, the station will show dashes
after 3 minutes.
To search for your Outdoor Sensor, hold the /CH button until the Reception Icon animates.
