OPERATION 

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.
