By default, Elevation is determined by the Postal Code set in the profile of the Connection Device. You can customize the elevation to ensure My AcuRite® uses the most accurate elevation for where your AcuRite Access® is located. When setting a custom elevation, My AcuRite® automatically adjusts the barometric pressure.
For example, if you live in a very mountainous location, your Connection Device may be located in an area that has a very different elevation than the elevation set by the Postal Code. Therefore, you may want to customize the elevation to where the device is physically located.
NOTE: PC Connect Display (Iris® (5-in-1) Weather Station) only - the My AcuRite® elevation setting does not apply to PC Connect Display devices. Barometric pressure adjustments, that automatically set the elevation, are set directly in the PC Connect software.
