3.8 Barometric Displays (BARO)

A barometric sensor in the microphone measures air pressure changes, enabling the radio
screen to provide three useful aids towards weather prediction and fi shing conditions,
particularly when close to large land masses. (See the information on the Happy Fish icon in
Section 1.5.) There is:

• a weather icon with fi ve different displays (SUNNY, PARTLY CLOUDY, CLOUDY, RAINY,

SNOWY). The local air pressure trends combined with the local temperature determines
which icon is displayed. Note: in open ocean conditions the weather icon predictions can
be less accurate than when close to large land masses.

• a digital readout of air pressure (in mb or inches of mercury).

• a graphical display of pressure changes over the past consecutive 24 hours. Barometric

data is maintained even if the engine and radio are switched off.
