MIN/MAX Temperature readings
Explanation:
The weather station shows the daily minimum and maximum temperatures each day starting
at midnight (12:00 AM). The weather station automatically resets the MIN/MAX temperatures at midnight
(12:00 AM).

View MAX data:
Press the ▲ button once to view maximum temperature and humidity values for indoor
and remote data.

Reset MAX data:
Hold the ▲ button for five seconds to reset maximum temperature and humidity
values for indoor and remote data.

View MIN data:
Press the ▼ button once to view minimum temperature and humidity values for indoor
or remote data.

Reset MIN data:
Hold the ▼ button for five seconds to reset minimum temperature and humidity values
for indoor and remote data.
Heat Index/Dew Point/Mold Risk
Heat Index:
 Heat Index combines the effects of heat and humidity.
 Heat Index is what the temperature feels to a human being.
 As humidity increases, the body is unable to cool effectively.
 The temperature will feel warmer.
View Heat Index:
From the default time display, press the HEAT/DEW button once and Heat Index will show
instead of the remote ambient temperature.
Note:
Heat index will be the same number as the temperature until the remote temperature is above 26.7°C
(80°F).
Dew Point Temperature:
 Dew Point Temperature is the saturation point of the air, or the temperature to which the air has to cool
in order to create condensation.
 The higher the dew points, the higher the moisture content of the air at a given temperature.
View Dew Point Temperature:
From the default time display, press the HEAT/DEW button twice and Dew
Point will show instead of the remote ambient temperature. The words “Dew Point” will show near remote
temperatures.
Note:
Dew Point is lower than the actual temperature.
Mold Risk (Remote and Indoor):
 Mold spores occur in both indoor and outdoor environments.
 When mold spores drop on places where there is excessive moisture, mold may grow.
 Place the remote sensor outdoors to monitor backyard weather conditions, or use it indoors to monitor
high mold risk areas like in a crawl space or a basement.
View Indoor and Remote Mold Risk:
From the default time display, press the HEAT/DEW button three
times to view the mold risk indicators for indoor and remote sensor.
