I have an Acurite 5in1 and I haven't found how to calibrate the barometer
in the unit, but I do calibrate it in Weewx. Use the StdCalibrate section
in weewx.conf under where it says foo=foo+0.2

I have pressure = pressure - 0.11
I found this number by trial an error, matching my reading vs what I see on
the nearest reliable source (regional airport) over a few days.
