  Here is what I have saved. Sorry I can't give credit to the sorce since I 
trimmed the header. Hope it helps.

  Button Information for the Talking Indoor and Outdoor Thermometer,
  as sold by Ann Morris, also sold by Radio Shack and others.
  these are usually priced around $20

  all of these units seem to have a flaw that causes them to
  randomly sound off with the temperature,
  usually in the early morning.
  we leave the volume off as a default.

  the Buttons in the Bottom Slide Area
  Starting from top row, far left
  1. volume set:
  three cycle, off max, min.
  3 beeps = max
  2 beeps = intermediate
  0 beeps = volume off.

  2. switch, left to right. hour report.
  left is on, right is off.

  3. middle button. clock. hour set.
  each push is adds one hour for clock.
  Does not talk.
  the bottom left mode button must be used
  set to show time to be set in order to set this correctly.
  it uses a 12 a hour clock with a P.M. shown for the
  second 12 hours.

  4. minute set for clock.
  As above, Does not talk.

  5. far right Daily, minimum and maximum temps.
  Indoor high and low.
  Outdoor high and low.
  Fourth press will turn off.
  For this to work properly - resetting the temps at midnight,
  the clock needs to be set correctly.

  the bottom row of buttons from the far left.
  1. Mode button. it has 4 cycles.
  this Changes visual display on the 2 LCD screens above the buttons.
  It beeps but does not talk.
  cycles through:
  indoor and outdoor temps
  indoor temp and time
  outdoor temp and time
  current time and alarm time

  2. switch. slides left and right.
  left = temp in degrees centigrade.
  right = temp in degrees Fahrenheit.

  3. middle button.
  Alarm on or off.
  Does not talk but on is a double beep and off is single beep.

  4. Clear button for the manual tracking of min or max temp.
  Clears manual memories

  5. far right button.
  Min and Max, indoor and outdoor temps
  since you last cleared memory with bottom button #4

  I just received two of these devices from the brailleSuperstore.com. They are 
priced at under 13 bucks U.S. and they ship Articles for the Blind. They are 
listed differently on Ebay. They are located in Abbotsford British Columbia.

  Anyway, I thought some of you might be interested. The first time I saw this 
device it was 80 bucks. I bought my first one for 40 bucks from RadioShack. At 
this price I bought two just in case I might need another one some day.

  They come with a braille sheet with some information on it, I remember though 
having a scanned document several years ago with details of all the buttons on 
it, lost it on my old computer, wonder if anyone has that to send along.

  Thanks.
