The BAR913HG, a weather forecasting device, has several weather
related functions. A main feature is that it takes and records
temperatures and humidities in more than one location. Using a
wireless remote thermo-hygro sensor, it can simultaneously monitor
temperatures and humidities in three remote locations. The unit
will show temperature and humidity trends as well as record
maximum and minimum temperature and humidity readings.
BAR913HG is able to receive and display readings from up to 3
remote sensors.
As part of the weather forecasting function, the unit has a built-in
barometer that displays atmospheric pressure. Using kinetic-
movement graphic illustrations the unit displays atmospheric
pressure trends and displays forecasts as sunny, partly cloudy,
cloudy, rainy and snowy.
The BAR913HG is also a Radio Frequency (RF) controlled clock. It
can automatically synchronize its current time and date when it is
