Temperature and humidity

The weather station displays indoor and outdoor readings for:

1.Temperature / relative humidity (current / maximum / minimum)

2.Trend line

3.Wind chill (current / minimum) and dew point level (current/ maximum / minimum)

The weather station can connect up to 3 remote sensors.

NOTE Channel 1 is dedicated for outdoor temperature and humidity.

The timestamp records the date and time when storing the temperature and humidity readings in memory.

To select the temperature measurement unit: Press UNIT to select °C / °F.

NOTE The unit of all temperature related displays will be changed simultaneously.

To view temperature (Current / Max / Min temperature) readings:

1.Press SELECT to navigate to the Temperature Area. will show next to the Area.

2.Press UP / DOWN to select the channel.

3.Press MAX / MIN to toggle between current / MAX / MIN displays.

To view humidity (Humidity, Dew point) readings:

1.Press SELECT to navigate to the Humidity Area. will show next to the Area.

2.Press UP / DOWN to select the channel.

3.Press MODE repeatedly to toggle between the humidity / dewpoint displays.

4.Press MAX / MIN to toggle between current / MAX / MIN displays.

The timestamp is displayed accordingly in the Clock Area.

To clear the memories and timestamp for the temperature, humidity and dew point readings:

In the Temperature or Humidity Area, press and hold MAX / MIN to clear the readings.

NOTE The dew point advises at what temperature condensation will form.
