AM and PM indication displayed.

Ball propeller:
The ball propeller has to be wide opened and aligned with the wind axis in order
to get accurate windspeed measurement. Use the wind vane for a good alignment
with the wind.
After using your instrument, twist the ball propeller into the sphere for optimal
protection.
The ball propeller can be popped out but for replacement only. This operation may
affect the strength of the plastic so we do not recommend it.
Compass:
The features a high precision, Swiss needle compass.
Wind Vane:
The Wind vane is located just below the ball propeller. Turn the instrument so that the
wind blows on the wind vane and indicates wind direction. Then align your instrument
with the axis of the wind for an accurate reading. Wind direction can be determined
by using the compass in conjunction with the wind vane.
A turning wind vane means that it is not well aligned with the wind axis. Be aware that
holding the instrument in front of you may disturb the airflow through the wind vane.
