Oregon Scientific WMR968
Wireless Weather Station

With the Oregon Scientific WMR968 Wireless Weather Station, you can now monitor weather and environmental conditions in and outside of your home or office. The WMR968 contains innovative wireless outdoor sensors that operate on solar power for simple installation and sophisticated use. Every sensor necessary for total weather monitoring is included -- temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, wind speed and direction, and rainfall. The indoor touchscreen control sensor with bright blue HiGlo™ backlighting is only about 7" wide -- perfect for desktop or wall-mount use anywhere.

The Oregon Scientific WMR968 displays and records over 20 separate weather conditions, selected by a press of the touch-sensitive, jumbo LCD display screen:

Barometric pressure and trend
Weather forecast
Indoor/outdoor temperatures
Wind speed/direction as well as wind chill
Indoor/outdoor dew points
Rainfall rate and daily/accumulated amounts
Hygrometer with indoor/outdoor relative humidity readings

The system features memories for all conditions, such as high and low temperatures, as well as optional user-set alarms for all monitoring functions. Each alarm activates an audible/visual warning condition when a pre-set value, such as a wind-chill reading, is reached.

The backlit display of the comprehensive control unit also features a digital clock with alarm and day/date calendar. Weather conditions are graphically displayed, including a compass rose for wind direction, and feature icons indicate the selected monitoring mode.

Also included is Oregon Scientifics' innovative graphical weather forecasting system. Easily recognized weather icons -- sunny, partly cloudy, cloudy, rainy/snowy and stormy -- display the forecast for the next 12-24 hours. Forecasts are based on electronic barometric-pressure sensing, and these weather predictions are considered to be about 75% accurate.

An optional PC Link software/cable package enables monitoring and graphing all weather conditions on your PC. All solar cells, batteries and AC adapter are included -- no additional purchase is necessary to enjoy complete weather monitoring.

The WM968 is an exceptional gift item-or indulge yourself.

Included senders:

	The Thermo-Hygrometer The Thermo-Hygrometer measures outdoor temperature and relative humidity. The outdoor temperature operating range is –580F to 158oF and has an accuracy resolution of 0.2oF; the relative humidity operating range is 2% to 96%RH with an accuracy resolution of 1%. Updating of information to the display unit occurs every 37-seconds. The Thermo-Hygrometer is powered by a solar cell with battery backup.
	The Anemometer The anemometer measures wind speed and direction. The anemometer wind speed operating range is up to 125 miles per hour and has a accuracy resolution of +/- (plus or minus) 0.4mph. In steady wind conditions the anemometer transmits new readings to the display unit once every minute. Wind direction operating range is 0oF to 359oF. Data transmission to the display unit occurs every 14-seconds. The anemometer is powered by a solar cell with battery backup.
	The Baro-Hygrometer The Baro-Hygrometer measures indoor temperature and humidity, and barometric pressure. The temperature operating range is 23oF-122oF with an accuracy resolution of 0.2oF; this data is transmitted to the display unit every 38-seconds. The humidity operating range is 2% to 96%RH with an accuracy resolution of 1%. Updating of relative humidity information to the display unit occurs every 37-seconds. The barometric pressure operating range is 23.48inHg to 31.01inHg with an accuracy resolution of 0.03inHg. Data updating to the display unit of relative humidity occurs once an hour. 4 AAA-sized batteries power the Baro-Hygrometer.
	The Rain Gauge The Rain Gauge measures rainfall in millimeter increments reflecting current rainfall or accumulation of up to nine (9) days’ history. The Rain Gauge features a self-emptying collection unit. The rainfall measurement range is 0" to 39.97" per hour with a cumulative operating range of 0" to 393.7". The rainfall accuracy resolution is 1 mm (0.04"). Data to the display unit is updated every 47-seconds. The Rain Gauge is powered by a solar cell with battery backup.
