USER’S MANUAL
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on purchasing the BAR928 Top Weather Station.
The BAR928 is an all-in-one clock and weather device. RF- control-
led, it can automatically synchronize its current time and date when
it is brought within an approximate 1500km radius of the radio
signal generated from Frankfurt, Germany (DCF77).
The BAR928 does weather forecasts and tells temperatures, indoors
and outdoors. It also shows the trend of changes plus the recorded
maximum and minimum temperatures. A remote thermo sensor is
included with the unit.
Apart from temperature, the BAR928 shows the indoor relative
humidity and rates the comfort level. It also retains the maximum
and minimum relative humidity readings.
The built-in barometer enables the BAR928 to display the atmos-
pheric pressure with user-selectable altitude adjustment. A bar
graph will show the pressure trend of the last 24 hours.
What is more, the BAR928 is equipped with a moon phase scanner,
which lets you check the moon phase of any day between 1990 and
2089.
Other features include a HiGlo backlight, daily crescendo alarm
with eight-minute snooze function, and extra-large display.
No wire installation is required between the main and remote units.
As the BAR928 operates at 433MHz, it can be used in the U.S. and
most places in Continental Europe.
