HEAT INDEX and DEW POINT TEMPERATURES
Press HI/DP to alternately display the Heat Index, Dew Point and actual temperatures. (The words Heat Index or Dew
Point will show above the temperature readings when they are displayed).
Heat Index
Heat Index is the "feels like", or apparent temperature. It is a function of temperature and humidity. As relative humidity
increases, the air seems warmer than it actually is because the body is less able to cool itself via evaporation of
perspiration. The HEAT INDEX temperature is usually higher than the actual air temperature.
Dew Point Temperature
The Dew Point is a measure of atmospheric moisture. Dew Point temperature is the temperature at which the air can no
longer hold all of its water vapor and some of the water vapor must condense into liquid water. The condensed water is
called dew. When the dew point temperature falls below freezing it is often called the frost point, as the water vapor no
longer creates dew but instead creates frost or hoarfrost.
TEMPERATURE TREND ARROWS
The arrows to the right of the indoor and outdoor temperature readings indicate the general temperature trend;
increasing, stable or decreasing.
MOON PHASE
The moon phase indicator, located to the right of the calendar, shows the current phase of the moon. The icon above
shows a new moon. The moon phase circle on the LCD will be empty for a full moon.
TIDE INDICATOR
The high tide and low tide cycle occurs in approximately a two week cycle. During a full moon and new moon the Sun,
the Moon and the Earth from a line (syzygy). When the Moon is between the sun and the earth maximum tide occurs
known as Spring tide; which is indicated by letter "H" (high tide) located to right side of the moon phase. When the Earth
is between the sun and the moon low tide occurs knows as Neap tide; which is indicated by letter "L" (low tide) located to
right side of the moon phase. Other than at New moon and Full moon the tide is at normal levels, which is indicated by
letter "M" (medium tide) located to right side of the moon phase.
LOW BATTERY INDICATORS
Low battery indicators are located on the base station display near the outdoor temperature reading (for the remote sensor)
and near the calendar (for the base station). When a low battery icon appears, replace the batteries as soon as possible
with a fresh set according to the BATTERY INSTALLATION AND SETUP section of this manual. Note: When the
old batteries are removed from the unit, you will lose your clock settings and barometric pressure history data.
PURCHASING ADDITIONAL REMOTE SENSORS
Additional temperature sensors may be ordered directly from Taylor Customer Service at 1-866-843-3905. The remote
sensor for this unit is SPRINGFIELD P/N 91661.
Note: It will only display and transmit the temperature, not the humidity.
