Placement for Maximum Accuracy
AcuRite sensors are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper
placement of both the display and the sensor are critical to the accuracy and
performance of this unit.
Display Placement
Place the display in a dry area free of dirt and dust. Display
stands upright for tabletop use and is wall-mountable.
Important Placement Guidelines
• To ensure accurate temperature measurement, place units out of direct sunlight
and away from any heat sources or vents.
• Display and sensor(s) must be within 330 feet (100 m) of each other.
• To maximize wireless range, place units away from large metallic items, thick
walls, metal surfaces, or other objects that may limit wireless communication.
• To prevent wireless interference, place units at least 3 feet (.9 m) away from
electronic devices (TV, computer, microwave, radio, etc.).

Weather Overview Dashboard
Weather Forecast
AcuRite’s patented Self-Calibrating Forecasting provides your personal forecast
of weather conditions for the next 12 to 24 hours by collecting data from
a sensor in your backyard. It generates a forecast with pinpoint accuracy -
personalized for your exact location.
Self-Calibrating Forecasting uses a unique algorithm to analyze changes in
pressure over a time period (called Learning Mode) to determine your altitude.
After 14 days, the self-calibrated pressure is tuned in to your location and the
unit is ready for superior weather prediction.
AUTO DIM MODE: Automatically adjusts display brightness based on time of day.
6:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m. = 100% brightness
9:01 p.m. - 5:59 a.m.= 15% brightness
Moon Phase
The moon phase is displayed between 7:00 p.m. to 5:59 a.m. when conditions
allow for moon visibility. The phases of the moon are conveyed through simple
lunar phase icons:
