Setting up weather retrieval for your weather region

Command Center automatically retrieves the current conditions and forecast from the reporting center nearest you.

Setting it up to retrieve information for your location is a one-time task, and it takes just a minute.

1. In Command Center, click System Prefs, then the Misc tab, and then on the right, put a checkmark next to "Enable weather updates."
   
   
2. Click the button next to City, and browse to your country, then state, then city nearest to your own
   
   
3. At the bottom of the Preferences window, choose "Save and Use."

The latest conditions retrieved will auto-display in Command Center's WeatherPad area, just below the VU meters. You can get the forecast by clicking on the conditions in the WeatherPad, which causes the forecast to display in the scrolling text box.

Command Center retrieves its information from the U.S. NOAA National Weather Service. Conditions data is provided for worldwide locations, though forecast data is available for U.S. locations-only.


No Forecast Available For Your Area?

If you discover there is no retrievable forecast for your region, you can go online and get it from one of a variety of Internet resources using one of the included web browsers. Once you find one in a text format you like, you can bookmark it, and routinely retrieve it. Just copy and paste it into a text file that can be displayed using one of Command Center's ButtonPad or MyShow buttons. After once having created the text file and assigned the file to a button, it can be quickly updated with additional forecasts by just right-clicking on the button and choosing "Edit Text."
