Using The 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 supe-
rior 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.

Multi-Variable History Chart
The multi-variable history chart lets you monitor the change in conditions over the
past 12 hour time period (-12, -6, -3, -2, -1, 0). The chart automatically toggles
between barometric pressure, outdoor temperature and outdoor humidity readings.
Wind Speed
The Wind Speed area of the display features the CURRENT speed, as well as the
LOW, AVERAGE and PEAK wind speeds. PEAK, AVERAGE and LOW wind speeds
are based on the past 30 minute time frame by default. The time frame can be
adjusted during the calibration process (page 15).
Barometric Pressure
Subtle variations in barometric pressure greatly impact the weather. This weather
center displays the current pressure with an arrow icon to indicate the direction the
pressure is trending (FALLING, STEADY, or RISING). The multi-variable history chart
lets you monitor the change in pressure over time.
