if indeed, and i now tend to agree, the station displays and outputs a manually adjusted barometer which is set to a sea level reading from local weather stations and not pressure then barometer should be set to hardware and pressure and altimeter set to software, and not as i previously

OK… The “pressure” that your station is displaying is what it should be displaying: the ambient air pressure, correct for your altitude. In weewx, this is called “barometer” because that is what weather stations report for barometric pressure. “Altimeter” is basically the same thing; there

It is likely that I am mis-using the terms altimeter, barometer, and pressure. I'll clarify what I mean here. What I previously defined as 'correct' pressure is that the pressure reported by my station (LaCrosse WS-2813U-IT) matches the National Weather Service barometer reading (

What I am defining as 'correct' pressure is the barometer value that matches the local reading from the National Weather Service (NWS) for my area. In other words, the pressure on my weather station (LaCrosse WS-2813U-IT) matches what the NWS is reporting as Barometer (
