– Wireless weather station
• The change of weather forecast icon is in accord to the relation-
ship between current relative pressure and the pressure change
since the last twelve hours. If the weather is changing, weather
tendency indicator (animated arrows) will be flashing. And after
the next three hours if weather conditions have become stable,
the arrows will fix indicating a stable condition happened.
Notes to pressure sensitivity setting for weather forecasting:
• The pressure threshold can be set to suit the user's requirement
for weather forecasting from 2-4 hPa (default 3 hPa). Areas that
experience frequent changes in air pressure require a higher
setting compared to an area where the air pressure is stagnant.
For example if 4 hPa is selected, then there must be a fall or rise
in air pressure of at least 4 hPa before the weather station will
register this as a change in weather.
4.4.2 Storm warning indicator
The storm threshold can be set to suit the user's
requirement for storm forecasting from 5-9 hPa
(default 6 hPa).
When there is a fall over pressure threshold
within 3 hours, the storm forecasting will be acti-
vated, the clouds with rain icon and tendency arrows will flash for
3 hours indicating the storm warning feature has been activated.
