INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the BAA928U Top Weather
Station. The BAA928U is all all-in-one weather device and clock.
The BAA928U, a weather forecasting device, and has several weather
related functions. One function is that it takes and records tempera-
tures. Using the remote thermo-sensor, included with your pur-
chase, the unit can simultaneously monitor two temperature read-
ings. The unit will show temperature trends and record maximum
and minimum temperature readings.
Another weather function is the humidity readings. It shows the
indoor relative humidity and rates the comfort level. It can retain
the maximum and minimum relative humidity readings.
A built-in barometer displays the atmospheric pressure with a user-
select altitude adjustment. A bar graph shows the pressure trend for
the last 24 hours.
The unit includes a moon phase scanner. This feature graphically
illustrates the current moon phase and lets you check the moon
phase of any date between 1990 and 2089.
Other features of the BAA928U include a clock and calendar, HiGlo
backlight, extra-large liquid crystal display (LCD), and a daily
crescendo alarm with an eight minute snooze function.
No wire installation is required between the main and remote units.
