USING DIFFERENT WEATHER STATION WINDOWS
WEATHER and PRESSURE WINDOW
Weather Window indicates the moon phase status, the weather forecast and a
number of historical statistics in pressure/ temperature/ humidity history
bar-chart
Pressure Window indicates barometric pressure value for LOCAL or SEA
LEVEL and SEA LEVEL pressure for the past 24 hours.
Pressure Window indicates pressure units displayed in inHg, hPa/mBar or
mmHg, and altitude in meters or feet.
IMPORTANT:
There are two options available for barometric pressure viewing – SEA
LEVEL or LOCAL. It is suggested to select and program only one option.
If you wish to know pressure changes at your specific location (house), then LOCAL
barometric pressure should be selected. In this case, the local altitude/elevation must be
programmed according to the GPS readings, Internet, etc.
If you wish to know pressure changes in your surrounding metro area, then SEA
LEVEL barometric pressure option should be selected. In this case, the SEA LEVEL
barometric pressure value can be adjusted according to the local metro area weather
information. (Sources – local TV or radio station, etc.)
ACCESSING WEATHER AND PRESSURE WINDOWS
Press UP or DOWN buttons on the back of the main unit until the WEATHER and
PRESSURE icons will start flashing on the upper left side of the display.
Programming Pressure & Altitude Parameters
During initial power up, the weather station won’t operate (first 2 minutes), until the
pressure and/or altitude parameters are not configured. The Pressure and Weather
Forecast Window will show the pressure icon and abbreviation “inHg” flashing.
If no values are entered within first 2 minutes the unit will self-adjust to the default
settings – inHg (inches of Mercury) for pressure units and 33 feet for altitude.
To set the pressure and/or altitude units and program the altitude or adjust the sea level

pressure during these 2 minutes:
Press UP or DOWN arrow button selecting the pressure in inHg(inches of
mercury), hPa (hectoPaskal)/mBar(millibars) or mmHg(millimeters of mercury)
Press SET button to confirm and store selection. Then unit will advance to the
altitude unit selection
Press UP or DOWN arrow button selecting the altitude unit in feet or meters.
NOTE: When adjusting altitude, be noted that the last small digit is not a decimal
but a whole number.
Example: “
350” feet means 350 feet (three hundred fifty feet).
Press SET button to confirm and store your selection. Unit will advance to the
altitude programming
Press UP or DOWN arrow button to adjust the altitude value. Press and hold
either button for the advanced setting.
Press SET to confirm the selected altitude value.
Wait for about 15 seconds until unit will calculate and display adjusted pressure
VIEWING PRESSURE AND ALTITUDE INFORMATION
To view a pressure or altitude information, press SET button rotating between the sea
level pressure, local pressure and local altitude screens.
PROGRAMMING SEA LEVEL PRESSURE
Press SET button until the sea level pressure with “SEA LEVEL” is displayed
Press and hold SET until the pressure digits are flashing
Set the sea level pressure by pressing UP or DOWN buttons. Press and hold
either button for the quick digits advance
Press SET to confirm selection
PROGRAMMING PRESSURE AND ALTITUDE UNIT
Press SET until the local pressure with the word “LOCAL” is displayed
