Title: WS2090
Post by: Garymb on January 30, 2014, 08:57:06 AM

I am trying to figure out which temperature to display. I have noticed that you have three options
1) Wind Chill
2) Temperature
3) Dew point
My question is if I select Wind chill how do I know when is there a wind chill. Is the unit taking the wind speed into consideration?

I appreciate the reply but this is not the answer I was looking for. Probably my fault perhaps I worded it wrong.
I know what wind chill is and how it is calculated.
What I want to know is which option do I choose to display on my station wind chill or regular temperature?
And if I choose wind chill how do I know if what I see is the actual windchill temperature.
Since the unit does not display the temperature at the same time?

Oh - I see.  AFAIK there is no indicator on that display fro WC.  If you use the Easyweather (or other) software you can see the WC indicator.
