Moon Phases

This weather station can display moon phases for the Northern Hemisphere. The moon waxes from the right. This is because the illuminated side of the moon in the Northern Hemisphere moves from right to left. The following table shows the representation of moon phases.

Image Description: A diagram showing 8 numbered moon phases, from New Moon to Full Moon and back, with corresponding icons.

Weather Trend

The weather station calculates the weather trend for the next 12 hours based on measured values.

Image Description: Six icons representing weather conditions: Sunny, Partly Cloudy, Cloudy, Rain, Heavy Rain, Snow.

Trend Arrow Indicators

The temperature and humidity trend indicator shows changes in the coming minutes. Arrows indicate a rising, steady, or falling trend.

Image Description: Three arrows indicating trend direction: Upward, Steady, Downward.

Barometric / Atmospheric Pressure

Atmospheric pressure is the pressure at a specific location on Earth caused by the weight of the air column above it. Average atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing altitude. Meteorologists use barometers to measure atmospheric pressure. Since atmospheric pressure changes are strongly influenced by weather, weather can be predicted based on pressure changes.

1. Press the BARO button to switch between displaying barometric pressure in inHg or hPa.
2. Press and hold the BARO button for 3 seconds to switch between absolute and relative atmospheric pressure.
   • ABSOLUTE: Absolute atmospheric pressure at your location.
   • RELATIVE: Relative atmospheric pressure referenced to sea level.

Setting Relative Atmospheric Pressure Value

1. Obtain sea level atmospheric pressure data (which is also the relative atmospheric pressure for your area) from local meteorological services, the internet, or other sources.
2. Press and hold the BARO button for approximately 3 seconds until "abs" or "rel" flashes.
3. Press the CH/UP or 12/24/DOWN button to switch to "rel" mode.
4. Press the BARO button, and the number for "rel" will flash.
5. Press the CH/UP or 12/24/DOWN button to change the value.
6. Press the BARO button to save and exit setting mode.

NOTE:

• The default relative atmospheric pressure value is 1013 mb/hPa (29.91 inHg), corresponding to average atmospheric pressure.
• Changes in relative atmospheric pressure also change the weather indicators.
• The built-in barometer can detect changes in absolute ambient atmospheric pressure. Based on the collected data, a weather forecast for the next 12 hours can be created. Therefore, the weather indicators will change according to the detected absolute atmospheric pressure after one hour of operation.
• Relative atmospheric pressure is referenced to sea level but changes along with absolute atmospheric pressure changes hourly.

Temperature Display

Press the °C/°F button to switch between displaying temperature in °C or °F.

• If the temperature reaches -40°C or lower and humidity is 20% or lower, "LO" will be displayed for the respective range.
• For temperatures of 70°C or higher and humidity of 90% or higher, "HI" will be displayed.
• For values outside the measurable range, "- -" will be displayed.
• When returning to the measurable temperature range, the corresponding temperature will be displayed again.

History Log for the Last 24 Hours

The main unit automatically records barometric pressure values for the last 24 hours.

If needed, press the HISTORY button repeatedly to view historical hourly pressure data (HOUR – up to 24 hours back) sequentially.

When a historical value is displayed, press any button (except HISTORY) to return to normal display mode.

⚠️ Note: The bar graph history allows reading pressure values for the last 24 hours in a condensed format at any time.

MAX/MIN Weather Data

The main unit stores the highest and lowest values for indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity for 24 hours:

1. Press MAX/MIN repeatedly to sequentially display stored values from the main unit and the currently set wireless sensor.
2. Display order: Highest values > Lowest values > Current values.
3. Press and hold MAX/MIN for approximately 3 seconds to clear all values for the current recording period.
4. ⚠️ Note: Replacing batteries also clears all values for the current recording period.
