History represented in the bar graph.

MANUAL SETTING OF THE RAIN MULTIPLICATOR
Note: The rain multiplicator is the height of rain held in the
teeter-totter bucket (inside the rain gauge) before it is tipped. It is
preset to a value of 3.75 tips per mm of rain by the manufacturer prior
to shipping; this number produces the most accurate rainfall
measurement. There is no need to manually set this number unless it
has been changed.

Rainfall Quantity Totals).
