Acu-Rite 00973 Weather Station
Barometer, Forecaster & Moon Phase Clock

The Acu-Rite 00973 is a sharp looking weather station and full featured atomic moon phase alarm clock. The 00973 can serve equally well as a home weather station, or as an executive desk clock. The upper portion of the display of the 00973 provides weather data, including indoor and outdoor thermometer and hygrometer, weather forecast icon, barometer, and barometric pressure bar graph history. The lower portion of the display is an atomic clock display, featuring time, date, day of the week, and moon phase.

The Acu-Rite 00973 is black with silver buttons and trim around the display. The 00973 may be hung on the wall, or using its flip out supports, can stand upright on a desk, table, shelf or mantel.

Upper Display. Indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity are displayed in big, bold digits on the left side of the upper LCD display, along with outdoor trend indicator arrows. Pressing the "MIN/MAX" button will bring up the high and low indoor and outdoor values for the last 24 hours (auto resetting). Up to three wireless remotes (one is included) may be used to monitor conditions at additional locations. The "CHANNEL" button is used to select which remote is being displayed. The right side of the upper LCD panel contains the remaining weather displays. At the top is the weather forecast icon: Sunny, Partly Cloudy, Cloudy, or Rainy (which predicts snow in cold conditions). If heavier storms are predicted, the Rainy icon flashes. The pressure-based forecast is for the next 12 to 24 hours and is 70% to 75% accurate. Below the forecast icon is the numeric barometric pressure. Here you can view the current pressure or the pressure at 1 to 19 hours in the past. Below this is a bar graph history display that indicates pressure changes for 0, 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 hours in the past.

Lower Display. At the left of the lower LCD panel is displayed moon phase, date, and day of the week. On the right is clock time as hour and minutes in big, bold digits and seconds in smaller digits. Above seconds is a tower and waves icon that appears when the 00973's atomic clock successfully synchronizes to the WWVB time signal. The clock time display area doubles as an alarm time setting and display area. An alarm bell icon indicates that the alarm is on.

Atomic Clock. The atomic clock in the 00973 sets itself automatically and can adjust automatically for Daylight Saving Time (DST). This clock keeps perfect time by calibrating itself to radio signals containing time information transmitted by the official U.S. atomic clock source in Boulder, Colorado.

The 00973 comes with a wireless remote temperature and humidity sensor. Additional sensors may be purchased in order to monitor up to two additional locations. The remote comes with a wired probe that may be used for exceptionally cold outdoor temperatures. If the outdoor temperature drops below -4 degrees for extended periods, it is recommended that you mount the remote indoors, attach the wired probe to the remote, and extend the wired probe out through a door or window to measure outside temperature.

Features:

Integral atomic clock receives 60 kHz WWVB time-synchronization radio signal from U.S. atomic clock in Colorado.
Automatic time adjustment (including Daylight Saving Time changes) and date adjustment occur after signal reception.
Radio tower and waves icon indicates successful signal reception.
U.S. time zone is user-selectable for Pacific, Mountain, Central, or Eastern.

Automatic DST changes can be disabled if your location does not observe DST.

Clock can be manually set if desired.

Time is displayed as hh:mm:ss in 12-hour format with PM.

Month, date, weekday, and moon phase are also displayed.

Clock has a daily alarm with available 5-minute snooze function.

Wireless 433MHz transmission of outdoor temperature and humidity data to main station from remote sensors.
One thermo-hygro sensor is included. Station can work with up to three thermo-hygro sensors
Main unit displays the following weather data:

Indoor temperature and humidity.

Outdoor temperature and humidity with trend arrows.

Note: The Acu-Rite 00973 weather station has "atomic" clock functionality. Atomic, or radio controlled, clocks receive a radio signal to set themselves. Like any radio receiver, however, they may not be able to receive the signal if they are in a building with a lot of steel in the structure, near computers or other electrical equipment that may generate interference, or if the weather is unsuitable. The signal they receive does not propagate well during the day. That's the nature of the signal, not the clock. These clocks are designed to catch the signal when they can, generally in the middle of the night, calibrate themselves, and then run quite accurately for days until they can catch another signal. When you first put in the batteries, they will most likely not set themselves until the middle of the night. That's normal. By morning, weather permitting, it should be correct. Under less than ideal conditions, it could take a few days. Also, Daylight Saving Time changes may not be made the first night if location and weather are not favorable.
