Forecast Trend Arrows
White arrows next to the forecast icon indicate the direction the forecast (barometric
pressure) is trending in the next 12-hours.
UP ARROW: Air-pressure is Increasing and the weather is expected to improve in
the next 12-hours.
RIGHT ARROW: Air-pressure no change significant in the next 12-hours
DOWN ARROW: air pressure has dropped and the weather is expected to get worse
but not necessarily rainy in the next 12-hours
Forecast Icons Inaccurate
THIS CLOCK LEARNS FORECAST OVER TIME!
Please allow 3-4 weeks for barometer calibration to generate an accurate forecast.
IMPORTANT
: As the forecast station builds memory, it will compare the current average
pressure to the past forty day average pressure for increased accuracy. The longer the
forecast station operates in one location the more accurate the forecast icons will be.
Weather Forecast Icons: This clock has five forecast icons that predict theweather
condition of the next 12-hours based on the change of atmospheric pressure.
Sunny
Partly Cloudy
Cloudy
Rainy
Stormy
The icons forecast the weather in terms of getting better or worse and not necessarily sunny
or rainy as each icon indicates.
The weather forecast is about 70-75% correct. As weather conditions cannot be 100%
correctly forecasted we cannot be responsible for any loss caused by an incorrect forecast.
Digital Atomic Clock Has Distorted Display
On a brand new Digital Atomic Clock check for thin plastic films of printed scratch guard that
may be on the upper and lower screen of the Digital Atomic Clock. This thin piece of plastic
has printed numbers for store displays.
This film will be easy to peel off the LCD.
With all power removed the Digital Atomic Clock should be blank.
If numbers still appear, please check for scratch guard.
Check that the batteries are installed correctly.
This is generally a power related issue.
Batteries
