[. . . ] Confirm with the SET key and enter the Relative air pressure value setting. 41 Note: Units of weather icon sensitivity and air pressure history are not affected. They are always expressed in hPa. RELATIVE AIR PRESSURE VALUE SETTING The default relative pressure value is 1013 hPa (29. 92 inHg). This can be manually set to another value within the range of 960 ­ 1040 hPa (28. 35 ­ 30. 72 inHg) for a better reference. Digit flashing 42 1. 3. The current relative pressure value will start flashing Use the OUT/+ key to increment and IN key to decrement the value. Confirm with the SET key and enter the Weather forecast icon sensitivity setting. WEATHER FORECASTING ICON SENSITIVITY SETTING: Digit flashing 43 For locations with rapid changes of weather conditions, the weather icons sensitivity can be set to a different level for faster display of weather conditions. The value corresponds to the change of air pressure in hPa before the weather icon will switch to another state. Level 2 is the most sensitive setting, level 4 is the slowest recording setting (default setting is "3"). Confirm with the SET key and exit the Manual settings. TO EXIT THE MANUAL SETTING MODE To exit the manual setting mode anytime during the manual setting, press the CH key or wait for automatic timeout. The mode will return to normal time display. INDOOR RELATIVE HUMIDITY AND INDOOR TEMPERATURE: The indoor temperature and humidity data, the indoor comfort indicator are automatically updated and displayed on the second section of the LCD. 44 MIN icon Indoor temperature in ° or ºF C Indoor relative humidity in RH% THE COMFORT LEVEL INDICATOR: Comfortable : Uncomfortable : 1. A happy face icon "" indicating a temperature level between 20° and 2 5. 9° and relative C C humidity reading between 45% and 65%. A sad face icon " " indicating any value outside the comfortable range. TOGGLING AND RESETTING THE INDOOR READINGS: Press the IN key to toggle between the indoor current, MAX/MIN temperature and humidity data. The time and dates of the recorded data will also be displayed in the time and calendar sections (for temperature data only). Once to show the MAX indoor temperature and humidity data with the recorded time and date. 45 Twice to show the MIN indoor temperature and humidity data with the recorded time and date. Once the MIN or MAX data is displayed, press and hold the SET key for 3 seconds to reset the respective MIN or MAX record to current temperature and humidity data, and current time, date display. Note: The MIN or MAX data needs to be reset individually. WEATHER FORECAST AND WEATHER TENDENCY: WEATHER FORECASTING ICONS: Weather icons in the third section of LCD can be displayed in any of the following combinations: FORECAST FORECAST FORECAST Sunny Cloudy with sunny intervals Rainy 46 For every sudden or significant change in the air pressure, the weather icons will update accordingly to represent the change in weather. If the icons do not change, then it means either the air pressure has not changed or the change has been too slow for the Weather station to register. However, if the icon displayed is a sun or raining cloud, there will be no change of icon if the weather gets any better (with sunny icon) or worse (with rainy icon) since the icons are already at their extremes. The icons displayed forecasts the weather in terms of getting better or worse and not necessarily sunny or rainy as each icon indicates. For example, if the current weather is cloudy and the rainy icon is displayed, it does not mean that the product is faulty because it is not raining. It simply means that the air pressure has dropped and the weather is expected to get worse but not necessarily rainy. Note: After setting up, readings for weather forecasts should be disregarded for the next 12-24 hours. This will allow sufficient time for the Weather station to collect air pressure data at a constant altitude and therefore result in a more accurate forecast. [. . . ] Fix a screw (not supplied) into the desired wall, leaving the head extended out the by about 5mm. Remove the stand from the Weather Station by pulling it away from the base and hang the station onto the screw. Remember to ensure that it locks into place before releasing. 54 Free standing With the detachable stand, the weather station can be placed onto any flat surface. POSITIONING THE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER: The Transmitter is supplied with a holder that may be attached to a wall with the two screws 55 supplied. The Transmitter can also be position on a flat surface by securing the stand to the bottom to the Transmitter. To wall mount: 1. [. . . ]
