User manual LA CROSSE TECHNOLOGY WS-2010

[. . . ] Please note the altitude adjustment is in meters. If you know your altitude in feet, multiply this by 0. 305 to get meters. If you do not know your altitude, watch the local weather to find the air pressure, and adjust the altitude until the air pressure matches. You may press the "Unit" key to switch between inHg and hPa. [. . . ] Press the or keys to scroll through each value and press the + or ­ to adjust the value. Press the "Min/Max" key to toggle between minimum alarm and maximum alarm. When a minimum alarm is set, any value received below that will sound the alarm; press the "Alarm" key to shut off the alarm. Rainfall can be viewed as total (cumulative until reset), 1h (1 hour total updated at the bottom of the hour), or 24h (24 hour total from 7 am to 7 am). For example, at 3:45 pm on Wednesday, you will see the total rainfall since the last reset, the 1 hour total from 2:30 pm to 3:30 pm. , and the total from 7 am Tuesday to 7 am Wednesday. Wind readings are continuously monitored, and transmitted once every three minutes. The value displayed is the maximum wind recorded during that three minute period, along with the average wind direction, represented by arrows around the compass. Wind units may be changed by pressing the "Wind" key. Solar panels are integrated in three of the four sensors. These sensors also include a Lithium button cell battery that will recharge during the day and power the unit at night. The battery is expected to last seven to ten years. Occasionally the display/receiver can lose transmission from a sensor and display "--. -". This may be due to outside interference (cordless phones, wireless headphones, etc. ) or not enough sunlight. Such losses of signals should be very infrequent, and will return automatically through an automatic search at 8 am and 6 pm. If the loss of communication is consistent, it may require moving the sensor. The forecast and weather trend is based on the changing air pressure over time. When air pressure falls, worsening conditions are expected. When air pressure rises, the weather is expected to clear up. The symbols are relative to current weather; thus, a sunny icon may not indicate the forecast of sunny weather, but rather clearing conditions. The forecast is for 6 to 12 hours in the future, and is about 75% accurate overall. Areas that are not affected as much by the air pressure change may find the forecast accuracy to be less than 75%. 1 Optional accessories are available for your unit WS-2010, WS-2210, or WS-7015. These are available through your retailer or by contacting La Crosse Technology directly.
