MOON PHASE
The Calendar must be set for this feature to work (see
Clock/ Calendar section).
In the Northern hemisphere, the moon waxes (amount of
moon we see that grows after the New moon) from the
right. So, the sunlit part of the moon moves from right
to left in the Northern hemisphere while in the Southern
hemisphere, it moves from left to right. The direction
depends on the latitude of the person observing it.
The moon phase on this unit is suited only for the
Northern hemisphere. For users living in the Southern
hemisphere, the moon phase diagram will appear
incorrect (inverted). The moon phase diagram has to be
rotated 180° to correspond with the moon seen from their
perspective.
Below are two tables which diagrammatically illustrate
how the moon will appear on the main unit and its
equivalent if seen in the night sky from the Southern
hemisphere.
