Using the Professional Weather Center

Learning Mode

Self-Calibrating Forecasting use a unique algorithm to analyze changes in pressure over a time period (called Learning Mode) to determine your altitude. After 14 days, the Learning Mode icon disappears from the display screen. At this point, the self-calibrated pressure is tuned in to your location and the unit is ready for superior weather prediction.

Weather Forecast

AcuRite’s patented Self-Calibrating Forecasting provides your personal forecast of weather conditions for the next 12 to 24 hours by collecting data from

the sensor in your backyard. It generates a forecast with pinpoint accuracy - personalized for your exact location.

Barometric Pressure

Subtle variations in barometric pressure greatly affect the weather. This weath- er forecaster displays the current pressure, direction it’s trending (FALLING, STEADY, or RISING) and a pressure chart. The chart tracks and displays the change in pressure so you can monitor the rate of change over time.

Rainfall Event

The rainfall feature tracks rain accumulation over all-time, the current month, and current rainfall event. Current event clears when no rain registers for 8 hours OR no rain registers for 1 hour and pressure rises by .03inhg or more.

Programmable Weather Alarms

Each Selectable Weather Category features an alarm option. When an alarm sounds, the display unit emits an audible beep and flashes the affected category, its alarm settings, and any other relevant data.

Some alarms can be customized to alert you when your programmed value is reached. Alarms include: outdoor temperature, outdoor humidity, wind speed, heat index, dew point, wind chill, indoor temperature and indoor humidity.

The rain alarm does not require a preset numerical value, but instead sounds as soon as rain is recorded. Similarly, the storm alarm sounds when a large atmo- spheric pressure drop occurs, which usually indicates an oncoming storm. Note: The storm alarm is NOT intended to be a safety device or warning system.
