displays.
The timestamp of when maximum wind speed was
recorded is displayed accordingly in the Clock Area.
To clear minimum wind chill reading / maximum wind

UVI / BAROMETER / RAINFALL
The weather station works with one UV sensor and
one rain gauge. The station is capable of storing and
displaying the hourly history data for the last 10 hours
of UV index, and 24 hours of rainfall and barometric
pressure readings.

RAINFALL
The bar chart display shows the current and historical
data for the UV index, barometric pressure and rainfall
readings.
NOTE
The number shown in the horizontal axis (Hr)
indicates how long ago each measurement was taken (e.g.
3 hours ago, 6 hours ago, etc.). The bar represents the
measurement taken for that specific 1 hour period.
E.g., if it
is 10:30 pm now, the bar plotted directly above -1 shows the
reading recorded from 9 to 10 pm and -6 shows the reading
recorded earlier in the evening, between 4pm-5pm.
