OPERATION

Using the Professional Weather Center

Weather Forecast

AcuRiteʼs 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.

“Learning Mode”

Self-Calibrating Forecasting use a unique algorithm to analyze changes in
pressure and temperature 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.

Barometric Pressure

Subtle variations in barometric pressure greatly affect the weather. This
weather forecaster displays the current pressure, direction it's trending
(FALLING, STEADY, or RISING) and a pressure chart. The chart tracks and
displays the change in pressure so you can monitor the rate of change over
time.

Rainfall Event

The rainfall feature tracks rain accumulation over all-time, the current month,
and current rainfall event. Current event clears when no rain registers for 8
hours OR no rain registers for 1 hour and pressure rises by .03inhg or more.

Programmable Weather Alarms

Each Selectable Weather Category features an alarm option. When an alarm
sounds, the display unit emits an audible beeping and flashes the affected
category, its alarm settings, and any other relevant data.

Some alarms can be customized to alert you when your programmed value is
reached. Alarms include: outdoor temperature, outdoor humidity, wind speed,
heat index, dew point, wind chill, indoor temperature and indoor humidity.

The rain alarm does not require a preset numerical value, but instead sounds
as soon as rain is recorded. Similarly, the storm alarm sounds when a large
atmospheric pressure drop occurs, which usually indicates an oncoming storm.

Note: The storm alarm is NOT intended to be a safety device or warning system.

Set a Weather Alarm

1. Choose the weather category for which you wish to set an alarm by
pressing the up or down arrow buttons until the category is displayed on
the Selectable Category part of the display unit.

2. To program a value (only applies to alarms that require a value), press
AND HOLD the “ ” button until the “SET” indicator appears in the
area of the display labeled “ALARM” (left of the selected weather
category) and the alarm setting flashes.

3. Adjust the alarm value by pressing the up or down arrow buttons.

4. Press the “ ” button to confirm a value.

5. Next, press the “ ” button to activate the alarm. The alarm ON
indicator will highlight on the display.

Alarm is now programmed and turned on.

To set or adjust an alarm value:
Press and hold “ ”

To activate or deactivate an alarm:
Press “ ”

below -4ºF/-20ºC). Do not use heavy duty
or rechargeable batteries. NOTE: It may
take up to 20 minutes for display unit and
sensor to synchronize after batteries are
replaced.

• Synchronize the units:

1. Bring both the sensor and display unit
indoors and remove at least one battery
from each.

2. Reinstall the battery in the outdoor
sensor.

3. Reinstall battery into the display unit.

4. Let the units sit within a couple feet of

• Allow the unit to run continuously for 33

days. Battery removal or resetting the
display unit restarts Learning Mode. After
14 days, forecast should be fairly accurate,
however Learning Mode continues to
calibrate for a total of 33 days.

• Make sure both the display unit and 5-in-1

sensor are placed out of direct sunlight and
away from any heat sources or vents (see
page 10 ).

• Make sure both units are positioned away

from moisture sources (see page 10 ).

• Make sure 5-in-1 sensor is mounted at least

5ft off of the ground.

• Calibrate indoor and outdoor temperature

and humidity (see page 17).

• Check to ensure the rain gauge stabilizer

(plastic tab) has been removed from the
bottom of the sensor (see page 6).

• Clear debris, such as leaves, out of the rain

collector funnel and debris screen.

• See Calibrate the Rain Gauge on page 17.

• What is wind reading being compared to?

Pro weather stations are typically mounted
at 30ft high or more. Make sure to
compare data using a sensor positioned at
the same mounting height.

• Check location of the sensor. Ensure itʼs

mounted a minimum of 5ft in the air with no
obstructions around it (within several feet).

•Ensure wind cups are spinning freely. If they

hesitate or stop try lubricating with
graphite powder or WD-40.

Care & Maintenance

Display Unit Care

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use caustic cleaners or abrasives. Keep
away from dust, dirt and moisture. Clean ventilation ports regularly with a
gentle puff of air.

2. Press AND HOLD the up and down arrow buttons and the “ ” button all
at the same time for 15-20 seconds.

• The display unit beeps, and all display data is hidden except for the

value being calibrated.

• “CAL” (calibrate) and arrows appear next to the value being calibrated.

3. Press the up or down arrow buttons to calibrate the data value higher or
lower from the actual reading.

5-in-1 Sensor Care

Clean The Sensor

Clean with a soft damp cloth. Do not use caustic cleaners or abrasives that will
mar the polished surfaces of the rain collection funnel or the solar cell.
Scratches will result in decreased performance and reliability.

Insect Prevention

Insects may cause obstructions and interrupt data by nesting in or on the 5-in-1
sensor. To limit this problem, spray sensor with a household insect repellent.
Consult the insect repellent instructions prior to use.

Snow & Freezing Weather

The 5-in-1 sensor will not be damaged by freezing conditions. NOTE: If the rain
collector cup fills with snow and then melts, it will register as rain on the
display unit.

Clean The Rain Collector Cup

Remove and empty rain collector debris filter. The debris filter is located in the
rain collector funnel. Remove from the top by gently squeezing and pulling out.

Clean the Wind Vane & Anemometer

Remove foreign matter from the outside of the sensor for free movement of the
wind vane and anemometer. If needed, use a small amount of spray lubricant,
clear silicone or graphite powder on the anemometer for improved movement.

Calibration

Calibrate Temperature & Humidity

The indoor / outdoor temperature and humidity readings can be calibrated on
the display unit to improve accuracy. Calibration improves accuracy when
5-in-1 sensor placement or environmental factors impact your data accuracy.

1. Choose the weather category you wish to calibrate by pressing the up or
down arrow buttons until the category is displayed on the Selectable
Category part of the display unit.

4. Press the “ ” button to confirm the calibration
adjustment. Note: The “CAL” icon remains
illuminated next to calibrated values.

Calibrate the Rain Gauge

The rain gauge on the 5-in-1 sensor can be calibrated to improve accuracy.
Items Needed: 5-in-1 sensor, display unit, plastic cup, pin, screw driver

1. First, ensure 5-in-1 sensor is perfectly level using built-in bubble level.

2. Place display unit close so you can monitor it during calibration.

3. Make a pin hole in the bottom of a plastic cup. Hold the cup over the rain
gauge and fill it with exactly 1 cup (8oz.) of water, allowing the water to
drip into the rain gauge. You should hear the internal buckets tip and see
water drain through the rain gauge.

4. A few seconds after each bucket tip, the display unit displays rainfall in
approximately 0.01" or more increments.

5. The cup of water should take more than 10 minutes to empty; a quicker
period will result in inaccurate calibration. Try to simulate a normal steady
rainfall. When cup is empty of water, display unit should register 1.06"

Tips

• There should be nearly an equal number of water drops (about 25 water

drops) between bucket tips. If not, adjust the calibration screws on the
bottom of the 5-in-1 sensor until an equal number of water drops are tipping
the buckets. Then, restart the calibration procedure.

• If you don't hear the buckets tipping and see water dripping alternately out

of each drain, there may be an issue with the rain gauge or it's adjustment.
See Troubleshooting on page 15.

Adjustment

If the rain gauge doesn't register close to 1.06", make an EQUAL adjustment to
the two calibration screws on the bottom of the 5-in-1 sensor. Turning screws
clockwise increases rainfall; counter clockwise decreases rainfall.

• To adjust the rainfall reading by 2% turn both screws 1/8 of a turn.

• To adjust the rainfall reading by 4% turn both screws 1/4 of a turn.

• To adjust the rainfall reading by 8% turn both screws 1/2 of a turn.

fitness for a particular purpose. Chaney expressly disclaims all
liability for special, consequential or incidental damages, whether
arising in tort or by contract from any breach of this warranty.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion
may not apply to you. Chaney further disclaims all liability from
personal injury relating to its products to the extent permitted by
law. By acceptance of any of Chaney’s products, the purchaser
assumes all liability for the consequences arising from their use
or misuse. No person, firm or corporation is authorized to
assume for Chaney any other liability in connection with the sale
of its products. Furthermore, no person, firm or corporation is
authorized to modify or waive the terms of this paragraph, and the
preceding paragraph, unless done in writing and signed by a duly
authorized agent of Chaney. This warranty gives you specific legal
rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state
to state.
