WEATHER FORECAST

BAA968HG is capable of detecting atmospheric pressure changes,
and basing on the data collected, can predict the weather for the
forthcoming 12 to 24 hours. The effective range covers an area of 30
to 50 km.
sunny
partly cloudy
NOTE:
1. The accuracy of a general pressure-based weather forecast is
about 70 to 75%, and therefore, cannot be held responsible
for any inconveniences so caused by an inaccurate one.
2. The weather forecast is meant for the next 12 to 24 hours. It may
not necessarily reflect the current situation.
3. The "Sunny" icon, when applies to night time, implies clear
weather.

COMFORT LEVEL INDICATORS

The comfort level indicators COM, WET or DRY will tell you if the
curent environment is comfortable, too wet or too dry.
The comfort indicators will appear on the display of the main unit
when the following conditions are satisfied:

HOW TO CHECK
THE BAROMETRIC PRESSURE
The current and historical barometric pressure is shown on the
atmospheric pressure window.
For users staying at a higher altitude such as in the mountain area,
sea-level barometric pressure applies. In this case, press and hold
HISTORY button to enter the altitude compensation setting mode.
Use the UP or DOWN button to select from –100 to 2500 meters
(whichever appropriate). Press HISTORY button to confirm and
exit. If the altitude changes, the "ALT" icon will flash to indicate
such change. It will stop flashing when the pressure reading is
recorded again.
The atmospheric pressure can be displayed in mb/hPa or inHg. The
pressure unit is selected on the atmospheric pressure slide switch
inside the battery compartment.
If you want to check the pressure history for a particular hour
during the past 24 hours, press the HISTORY button. Each press
on the button will go back by an hour.
The recorded atmospheric changes for the past 24 hours are
displayed in a bar chart above the atmospheric pressure window.
HOW TO USE AND SCAN
THE MOON PHASE
BAA968HG is equipped with a moon phase display and scanner
with which eight moon phases are displayed on the screen from
new moon to waning crescent. The one falls on the current day will
flash on the screen.
If it is a full moon or new moon day, the icon will flash faster.
The eight phases are:
New Moon
Waxing Crescent
First Quarter
Waxing Gibbous
To check the moon phase for a particular day, press the UP or
DOWN button once. The clock will enter moon phase scanning
mode.
