Enter the
program menu
to select the pressure unit of measure (inHg is common in the USA) and set
the actual Relative Pressure numbers on the display. The unit can set it to a known value from the
local reporting station.
Forecast Icons inaccurate
The weather forecasting feature is estimated to be 70% accurate. The weather forecast is based
solely upon the change of air pressure over time.
The icons are predicting 12-24 hours in the future, not current conditions. It may be sunny out your
window, but the pressure is falling so the forecast station will show clouds with rain icon.
The SUNNY icon indicates clear weather, even when displayed during the night-time.The icons
displayed forecast the weather in terms of getting better or worse, and not necessarily sunny or rainy
as each icon indicates.

sufficient time for the weather station to collect air pressure data at a constant altitude and result in a
more accurate forecast.
