Note:
The default reference
pressure-value
of the barometer is 29.91inHg when batteries are first inserted.
For an exact measurement, it is necessary to first adjust the
barometer to your local relative air pressure (related to elevation above sea level)
. Ask for the current atmospheric pressure of your home area (Local weather
service, www, optician, calibrated instruments in public buildings, airport).
The relative air pressure can be manually set to another value within the range of 27.17 to 31.90 inHg (919 to 1080 hPa) for a better reference.

The current relative pressure value will start flashing
2. Use

WEATHER TENDENCY SENSITIVITY LEVEL SETTING
You may select a definite switching sensitivity value, .06, .09, or .12 inHg for the change in the display of weather icons. This represents the "sensitivity" of the weather
forecast (the smaller the value selected, the more sensitive the weather forecast).
The default value is 0.09 inHg. Select lower numbers for high humidity areas, i.e.
Oceanside. Select high numbers for arid areas, i.e. desert.
