Pressing the right scroll button from any Current
Measurement Screen will open the Min/Avg/Max Screen.
The capture process is linked for all measurement screens,
capturing Min/Avg/Max values on one measurement
screen will capture Min/Avg/Max values over the same
time period for all measurements. Each new Min/Avg/Max
capture overwrites the previously captured value from all
measurements.
CAPTURING MIN/AVG/MAX VALUES:
» Scroll to the Min/Avg/Max Screen of the desired
measurement. This can be done by scrolling right from
the desired Current Measurement Screen or scrolling
vertically from another measurement’s Min/Avg/Max
Screen.
» Press Select to Start a new Min/Avg/Max capture.
» Press Select to Stop the capture time period and view
Min, Avg, and Max values.
» Press Select to Clear the Min/Avg/Max values.
MEASURING DIRECTION
» The Kestrel’s compass is intended for measuring wind
direction. The Kestrel must be held vertically with the
back of the unit pointed towards the direction to be
determined.
» Using a Kestrel Vane mount adjusted to level will
provide the most accurate wind and direction
measurements.
