How It Works
AcuRite® Atlas™ is an
environmental monitoring station
that delivers key information on
current outdoor conditions in
your exact location. The outdoor
device contains sensors that
read temperature, humidity, wind
speed and direction, rainfall, UV,
light intensity, and optionally
lightning (requires optional
Lightning Detection Sensor;
may be purchased separately).
These readings are transmitted
over a 433 MHz wireless radio
frequency (RF) to be received by
the AcuRite Atlas indoor touch
screen display.
NOTE: To view your outdoor
readings online from My AcuRite
an AcuRite
may be purchased separately.
