2. €In approximately the middle of the left side of the page, there is a group of selection

boxes for METAR reports. Click those boxes that support your preferences.

3. €Click OK.

4. €Click on Setup, Setup FTP/.../METAR.

5. €Click the FTP/METAR Download tab.

7. €Click OK.

Make sure you have a METAR name selected that is in the list of METARs to download, that

you have download times set, and that the switch is ON (green).

User specified thresholds

You may select the thresholds for Weather Display to use to determine if current conditions

suggest the use of the Snow, Fog, or Windy icons.

You can get Weather Display to override the METAR report if you tick that option in the

METAR icon setup, i.e. if you record rain or strong winds, then Weather Display will update

the icon regardless of what is included in the METAR reports. This is a good idea if the

METAR you are using is from an airport that is some distance away. Also some METARs are

only updated every hour, so the conditions could have changed since the last METAR was

produced.

1. €Click on Setup, Summary Image/Icon Setup.

2. €Approximately one-third of the way down the page, find and set the desired threshold.

3. €Click OK.

Note•••If you have a solar sensor, you can get the icon updated from that (see the solar

sensor setup).

4. €Click OK.

This selection may be made at any time to represent the current weather. Such a selection

is immediately effective, and remains so until changed by the user, or user selection is

revoked.

If you cannot find a suitable icon, go to the section Replacing WD's weather icons or see the

link on the Weather Display download page.
