Local Altitude settings
Local Pressure reflects pressure changes at your specific location (house). The local altitude/elevation must be
programmed according to GPS readings, internet, etc.
Sea Level Pressure reflects pressure changes in your surrounding metro area. The sea level barometric pressure value
can be adjusted according to the local weather reporting station (Sources–local TV, radio station, Internet, etc.).
Sea Level Pressure and Altitude are interdependent.
Adjust altitude and the weather station will calculate sea level pressure.
Adjust sea level pressure, and the weather station will automatically calculate altitude.
You can only adjust one of the two–either sea level barometric pressure or altitude.
The default settings are: InHg (Inches of Mercury), and 33 feet.
