VI. RESETTING RAINFALL INFORMATION

A.RAINFALL QUANTITY TOTALS

Resetting the Rainfall Quantity Totals will clear the numeric data held under “TOTAL,” resetting to 0.00 (appearing in LCD 5).

From any selected normal display mode:

1.Press and hold the RAIN button for 3 seconds.

2.Resetting will automatically shift to display “TOTAL.” The numeric data under “TOTAL” in LCD 5 will read 0.00.

Note: Resetting the Rainfall Quantity Totals does not affect the Rainfall History represented in the bar graph.

B.MANUAL SETTING OF THE RAIN MULTIPLICATOR

Note: The rain multiplicator is the height of rain held in the teeter-totter bucket (inside the rain gauge) before it is tipped. It is preset to a value of 3.75 tips per mm of rain by the manufacturer prior to shipping; this number produces the most accurate rainfall measurement. There is no need to manually set this number unless it has been changed.

1.Remove the batteries and wait 30 seconds. (This will also reset the Rainfall Quantity Totals).

2.Checking the polarity, install batteries.

3.During the brief 2 seconds that all LCD screens light up, simultaneously press and hold the RAIN and + buttons.

4.Three numbers will appear in LCD 1 (“375” is the default), with the last digit “5” flashing.

Note: If “375” is not displayed:

5.Use the + button to change the last digit to a 5 and press the SET button.

6.Use the + button to change the middle digit to a 7 and press the SET button.
