The clima indication is a pictorial indication based on indoor air temperature and humidity in an attempt to determine comfort level.

Note:

• Comfort indication can vary under the same temperature, depending on the humidity.
• There is no comfort indication when temperature is below 0° C (32° F) or over 60° C (140° F)

22 Data clearing

During installation of the outdoor sensor, the sensor could have been triggered, resulting in erroneous rainfall and wind measurements. After the installation user may clear all the erroneous data from the main unit without a need to reset the clock and re-establish pairing. Simply press and hold the HISTORY button for 10 seconds. This will clear out any data recorded before.

23 Pointing the sensor to the south

The sensor is calibrated to be pointing to North by default. However, in some cases, users may wish to install the product with the arrow pointing towards the South, especially for people living in the Southern hemisphere (e.g. Australia, New Zealand).

1. First install the outdoor sensor with its arrow pointing to the south. Please refer to “Installation” chapter for mounting details.
2. Press and hold the WIND button for approx. 8 seconds until the upper part (northern hemisphere) of the compass rose is blinking.
3. Press the UP or DOWN button to change to lower part (southern hemisphere).
4. Press the WIND button to confirm and exit.

Note:
Changing the hempisphere setting will automatically switch the direction of the moon phase on the display.

24 Moon phases

In the Northern hemisphere, the moon waxes from the right. Hence the sun-lit area of the moon moves from right to left in the Northern hemisphere, while in the Southern hemisphere, it moves from left to right. Below are the 2 tables which illustrate how the moon will appear on the main unit.

Illustration 3: (A) Northern hemisphere, (B) Southern hemisphere

25 Weather trend

A weather trend for the next 12-24 hours is calculated from the measured values and displayed graphically as follows:

Note:

• The accuracy of a pressure-based weather forecast is about 70% to 75%.
• The weather forecast is intended for the next 12 hours and does not necessarily reflect the current situation.
• The snow weather forecast is not based on air pressure, but on the outdoor temperature. When the outdoor temperature is below -3°C (26°F), the snow symbol appears on the LCD display.

26 Barometric / Atmospheric Pressure

Atmospheric pressure (hereinafter referred to as “air pressure”) is the pressure at any place on earth caused by the weight of the layer of air above it. Air pressure is proportional to average pressure and decreases gradually with altitude. Meteorologists use barometers to measure air pressure. Because the weather is highly dependent on changes in air pressure, it is possible to make a weather forecast from the measured changes in air pressure.

In normal display mode, press the BARO button repeatedly to display the desired unit (hPa, inHg or mmHg).

Set relative atmospheric pressure

1. Find out the relative air pressure value for your location (or as close to it as possible) through the local weather service, the Internet or other sources.
2. Press the BARO button for approx. 3 seconds until ABS or REL flashes.
3. Press the UP or DOWN key until REL flashes.
4. Press the BARO button to move to the next setting value.
5. Press the UP or DOWN key to change the REL value (according to the researched value).
6. Finally, press the CLOCK-SET button to save the settings and exit the setting mode.

• NOTICE! ABS: Absolute air pressure at your current location
• NOTICE! REL: Relative air pressure based on sea level (N.N.)
• NOTICE! The default relative air pressure value is 1013 mbar/hPa (29.91 inHg), which is relative to the average air pressure value.
• NOTICE! If the value for the relative air pressure is changed, the weather displays also change as a result.
• NOTICE! The built-in barometer registers changes in absolute air pressure caused by the environment. Based on the collected data, a forecast for the weather conditions in the next 12 hours can be made. The weather indicators change according to the determined absolute air pressure after only one hour of operation.
• NOTICE! The relative air pressure is based on sea level, but it also changes with changes in absolute air pressure after one hour of operation.

29 Wind chill factor

Press the INDEX button several times until WIND CHILL is displayed.

Note:
The wind chill factor is based on the common effects of temperature and wind speed. The displayed wind chill is calculated solely from temperature and wind speed and is measured by the outdoor sensor.

30 Temperature display

Move the °C/°F switch to toggle between °C and °F temperature display.

When temperatures of -40° C or below are reached, the information “LO” is output for the respective range, when temperatures of over 70° C or above are reached, the information “HI” is output. The measurable temperature range has been exceeded or fallen below.

When returning to a measurable temperature range, the appropriate temperature is displayed again.

31 Feels like temperature

Press the INDEX button repeatedly until FEELS LIKE appears on the display.

Note:
The feels like temperature indicates the temperature value according to the personal temperature perception.

32 Heat index

Press the INDEX button several times until HEAT INDEX is displayed.

Notice:
The perceived temperature is based on the common effects of temperature and humidity. Heat index is only calculated when room temperature is at 27° (80° F) or higher. The displayed perceived temperature is calculated solely from temperature and humidity and is measured by the outdoor sensor.

33 Dew point

Press the INDEX button several times until DEW POINT is displayed.

Note:
The dew point is the temperature below which the water vapor in air at constant barometric pressure condenses into liquid water at the same rate at which it evaporates. The condensed water is called dew when it forms on a solid surface. The dewpoint temperature is calculated from the indoor temperature and humidity measured at the main unit.

34 History record for the past 24 hours

The base station automatically records and displays data of the past 24 hours.

1. Press the HISTORY button to check history records of the last hour.
2. Press the HISTORY button several times to display the history records of the hours 2,3,4,5 ……

35 MAX/MIN Weather data

The base station preserves the MAX/MIN weather data records until the next manual reset. To retrieve the data:
