PRESSURE TREND
Stored memory of the barometric pressure
changes are displayed on the chart, in
5 steps indicating the pressure 1,3,6,12
and 24 hours ago. This chart is plotted by
comparing the past barometric pressure
to the present pressure.
This gives you the pressure trend over the
last 24 hours. The weather will be getting
better (worse) if this chart shows the bar
marks moving up (down) towards the
present time.

Important:
It is only possible to measure the
barometric pressure trend properly if your
barometer remains at the same altitude.
When moving around at different altitude
within a short time period, the air pressure
changes. The barometric pressure reading
is precise only if the barometer has
remained at a constant altitude for
24 hours.

barometric pressure reading at certain
altitude, the user needs to select the
local altitude (-100 to 2500 meters i.e.
-328 to 8223 feet) for the altitude

of elevation in meters not feet.
Therefore, to convert feet to meters,
multiply feet by 0.3048.

The BHM-612A is designed to
automatically synchronize its current time
and date when within range of the U.S.
Atomic Clock.
When the unit is within range, its radio-
control mechanism will override all manual
settings. The benefit of a RF controlled
clock is sustained accuracy without the
need of manual adjustment.
