The two additional options: “SET WEATHER ALERT” and “AUTO DISPLAY: ON / OFF” should not be lid

at this point as these are advance settings that should appear only after initial setting.

7.2.3 An arrow “►” will appear on the SET UNITS line to inform the user that the arrow will determine the

option they select.

7.2.4 Moving the “▼” and “▲” buttons will move the arrow up and down giving the user the possibility of

selecting between changing the units, setting the time and date and allowing the automatic display.

7.2.5 If user presses the OK button in the SET UNIT option the word ENGLISH will tilt and all the English

metrics around the display will tilt. The digits will not lid up, only the units. So all the ºF, mph,

Inches, inHg will be flashing along with the word ENGLISH. If user moves the “▼” and “▲” the

word ENGLISH will stop tilting and the word METRIC will start tilting. All the ºC, kph, mm, hPa will

be flashing along with the word METRIC. User should select between ENGLISH or METRIC and

hit the OK button to finalize its selection. Once made the selection the “►” will go to the next

variable that requires input, which will be the SET TIME & DATE.

7.2.6 If user presses the OK button on the SET TIME & DATE option the word SET TIME & DATE will

start tilting. All other segments on the display will remain unlit, with the exception of SET TIME &

DATE and the three (3) alphanumerical digits on the DATE box on the bottom right side. These digits

will tilt with the word EST signaling the user that the time zone needs to be selected. The word TIME

ZONE will be lid (all-time) below the EST, while this one is tilting. Moving the “▼” and “▲”

buttons will change the three letter initials among EST, CST, MST, PST, ATL Eastern Standard Time

(EST); Central Standard Time (CST); Mountain Standard Time (MST); Pacific Standard Time (PST);

Alaska Standard Time (AST); Hawaiian Standard Time (HAW); and Atlantic Standard Time (ATL).

These initials (i.e.: EST) will be displayed in the alphanumerical digits. After going through the 7 US

zones, if user has not selected any zone by pressing OK, then user will go into GMT mode. This mode

will go from selecting a number between -12 and 12, including zero (0). The word GMT (Greenwich

Mean Time) will appear on the screen, signaling that the user is setting TIME ZONE (lid) and GMT

(Greenwich mode). User should select among the GMT time zones and press OK. If user selects a

GMT time zone, skip step 7 and go directly to step 8.

7.2.7 If user selects among the 7 US zones, once user presses OK the word DST will tilt on the same three

(3) alphanumerical digits. Moving the “▼” and “▲” buttons will change the values between ON and

OFF signaling the Daylight-saving ON and OFF.

7.2.8 Next setting is time. The four digits on the TIME box will be lid with the two initial digits (hours)

flicking with default being 12. User will navigate by increasing the number by pressing the “▲”

button or decreasing by pressing the “▼” button. The initial 12 will be PM and then the as the user

increases the number it will go to 12 AM and switch the AM – PM segment. Once user selects the

right hour it will press OK.

7.2.9 The next setting will be minutes. The selected hours will remain in the display but the two digits after

hours will tilt. User will navigate by increasing the number by pressing the “▲” button or decreasing

by pressing the “▼” button. The default is 00. Decreasing this value will take the count to 59. Once

user selects the minutes it should press OK. By holding the “▼” and “▲” buttons for 2 seconds the

quantities should increase or decrease faster.

7.2.10 The next setting will be year, and because it is not displayed in the screen it will use the four digits of

the TIME box, using the two digits of month for the 20 (of 2008) and the two digits of date for the 08

0f 2008. The default will be 2008. . User will navigate by increasing the number by pressing the

the range from 1 to 31. User will navigate by increasing the number by pressing the “▲” button or

decreasing by pressing the “▼” button. Once user makes the selection it will press OK.

7.2.13 Once user selects the time & date then the arrow “►” should go to EXIT MENU. User should press

OK to determine that the initial setup is completed.

7.2.14 By completing the setup then all MENU items should disappear and all the information should appear

on the display with the units selected by the user and with the proper date. Outdoor temperature will

be the default information on the main display area. The forecast should display the sun and two

clouds, the 14-day learning icon and STEADY. The Seasonal box should display the information based

on the outdoor temperature reading.

7.2.15 If there is missing information, or no readings for the outdoor sensors, then the unit will display

“dancing ants” on those digits. Dancing Ants refers to the animation created by cycling the outer

segments of the digits in circles signaling that the device is thinking.

7.2.16 CUSTOMIZABLE MAIN DISPLAY AREA: If user wishes to change the information to be displayed

on the main display area, user should hit the button DISPLAY. Default is Outdoor Temperature. If user

hits DISPLAY once, the Outdoor Humidity will move to the main display area. Hitting once again the

DISPLAY button will bring Rainfall into the main display. The next time user presses DISPLAY it will

bring the Seasonal information (Dew Point, Heat Index or Wind Chill). Following Seasonal, next

button pressing will bring Wind; next will be Pressure then Indoor Temperature and, the last one will

be Indoor Humidity.

7.2.16.1 Sequence: Outdoor Temperature → Outdoor Humidity → Rainfall → Seasonal → Wind →

Pressure → Indoor Temperature → Indoor Humidity → START AGAIN with Outdoor

Temperature

7.2.16.2 Outdoor and Indoor Temperature and Humidity, barometric pressure, wind and the seasonal

information will display Recorded High and Recorded Low information (high’ and Low’s). The

high and low are for the 24 hour period starting at 12.00 am. As the main display area will have

the unit (English or Metric) then the Recorded high and Recorded Low should not have any

units, only the numbers should be displayed.

7.2.16.3 Rainfall will not display any recorded highs and lows, instead the word Accumulative should

lid and only one section of the four digits should show the accumulative rainfall history since

the unit has been on. The user can erase and reset the accumulative count by pressing and

holding the HISTORY button.

7.2.17 SET WEATHER ALERTS: For setting the weather alerts, one requirement is for the user to have the

weather parameter for which the alert is to be programmed, in the main display area. Once the

parameter is in the main display area, user should press the button MENU. The following options will

appear in the MENU

7.2.17.4 AUTO DISPLAY: ON/OFF

7.2.17.5 EXIT MENU

User should move the arrow “►” by moving the “▼” and “▲” buttons until they get to the line that is

for SET WEATHER ALERT. Once the user is in this line, it should press OK. All segments in the

weather station should disappear (unlit) with the exception of the information on the main display area

and in the menu. The word WEATHER ALERT should lid on the bottom right side of the main display,

and the four digits should lid flashing to signal that the input should occur in these digits. Check

weather alert value range to determine the values to allow for the weather alerts.

7.2.18 AUTOMATIC DISPLAY: User can select the information to be placed in the main display area from

all the weather parameters in the product. During times of extreme weather events, there is a feature

that automatically will bring the most relevant weather information to the main display area. The

Automatic Display will change whatever information is on the main display area if the extreme

parameters are met. For example, if Outdoor Temperature is being displayed on the main display and

suddenly winds of above 20 mph happen, the wind will automatically appear on the main display area.

If wind goes below the threshold then Outdoor Temperature or the customized parameter will return to

the main display area.

7.2.19 User can disable the Automatic Display by pressing the MENU button and selecting the AUTO

DISPLAY option by placing the arrow “►” by moving the “▼” and “▲” buttons. Once in the AUTO

DISPLAY line user should press the OK button. This will start the ON tilting which indicates that the

feature is ON. By moving the “▼” and “▲” buttons user can toggle between the ON and OFF of this

function. Once OFF is selected to disable the function, user should press OK. Disabling this function

means that the only weather parameter that will be displayed on the main area will be those selected

by the user.

7.2.20 HISTORY: Users can review the history of any of the selected weather parameters that are set on the

main display area. Once the desired parameter is set on the main display area, user can hit the

HISTORY button. By pressing HISTORY, all segments in the display will disappear (unlit) with the

exception of the main display area, the recorded high and low (or accumulative in case that rainfall is

the one selected) and the word HISTORY in the middle display. On the bottom display the Date box

will remain lid, to show the starting date for the history (the date will remain the same). By pressing

the HISTORY button consecutively the day of the month will be reduced by one, showing the Average

reading of that day on the main digits and the recorded high and low for that weather parameter.

Rainfall will show the daily on the main display and the accumulative up to that day on the four (4)

smaller digits. Indoor temperature, Outdoor Humidity, Rainfall, seasonal, Wind, Indoor temperature

and indoor humidity will display seven (7) day history. Pressing the HISTORY button for the eight

times will bring the full display on, going back to normal operation. Starting the history sequence and

leaving idle the HISTORY button for more than 15 seconds, will terminate the HISTORY sequence

and go back into normal operation.

7.2.21 Pressure has a different history sequence. All segments should unlit, same as with the other parameters,

but in the bottom LCD instead of the Date showing the daily regression (JUN 10 to JUN 9) , it would

be the Time the one that will lid and do an hourly regression (12.30pm to 11.30pm). The hourly

regression will include 12 hours and then go back to the normal operation. Idle activity on the

HISTORY button for more than 15 seconds will return device to normal operation.

1) Backlight will be activated by a button that will be clearly marked with a bulb icon.

2) When user selects the backlight, the LED illumination should last 8 seconds before turning off again.

Requirement #11 Description

Backlight LED Backlight

A good backlight (amber) diffused evenly, with no hot spots, over all three LCD areas. An optical diffuser that will

distribute the light evenly across the LCD is required. A reflective sheet (or mirror) is required behind the diffuser tom

minimize the leakage of light.
