WINDSPEED:
Balanced impeller is integrated into wind meter. The impeller is magnatized, producing a magnetic field when rotating which is measured internally.
TEMPERATURE:
Internal thermometer is attached to the stainless steel back. Temperature adjusts quickly, although drastic temperature changes may require several minutes for accuracy. Temperature is read quickly by touching the back to an object of the same temperature. Water temperature is read quickly by submerging the unit briefly.
DIGITAL COMPASS:
Designed to be used in verticle position. Will display windspeed and compass simultaneously. Electronic calibration before use ensures absolute precision (easy process). Calibration is essential for proper use. Accurate wind direction can be found in this way....a world exclusive feature!
ALTITUDE:
Altitude is based on an initial set altitude and a change in air pressure (this is true of ALL altimeters). Drastic air pressure change (weather front) will impact altitude readings (usually occurs over 12+ hours). Several seconds is needed to adjust to a new altitude. The highest accuracy is acheived when the altitude is properly set, a change in altitude is more than 10 feet, and several seconds are allowed for adjustment. Altitude and air pressure are measured on the same sensor, and adjusting one will adjust the other. Altitude history is recorded every hour for the past 48 hours.
AIR PRESSURE:
Air pressure is read in either "relative" or "absolute" air pressure. Absolute air pressure is a precisely defined measurement, just like temperature. Absolute air pressure is measured within .10 inHg, and cannot be adjusted.
Relative air pressure factors out the change in elevation, essentailly calculating the air pressure at sea level and is adjusted to reflect current altitude. Once the relative air pressure is set and if no changes to altitude occur the accuracy is within 0.01 inHg. With air pressure history, one can accurately predict future weather. Air pressure history is recorded every hour for the past 48 hours, although the past 6-12 hours is most important.
