Hi All,
Just purchased an Explore Scientific WSX1001 5 in 1 Weather Station (Bresser 5 in 1) and am having some difficulty configuring the Absolute and Relative offsets on the unit.
I realise the Explore Scientific WSX 1001 is not a fine offset weather station but would like to configure it as accurately as the unit will allow.
What l have done so far:-
* mounted/Configured the unit and connected it to both my wifi network and WeatherCloud.
* after speaking to the distributor of Explore Scientific, l was told the unit automatically configures the Elevation (not so sure about that given the Relative and Absolute readings and comparing them to nearby weather stations on WeatherCloud!).
* in the ‘Pro Weather Link’ Advanced configuration section, both the Absolute and Relative Offsets are listed as ‘0’
* the weather Station reports that the current Absolute pressure is 984 hPa and the Relative reading is 1008 hPa.
* referenced my elevation on
www.freemaptools.com. It reported that my property in Castlemaine was 290m. (+2m to account for the height of the console).
* my nearest METAR weather station (Melbourne International Airport) reports 1016 hPa at sea level.
Thanks for your assistance in advance!
Regards,
