Default Barometric Sensor ? What's its purpose ?

hey guys i got some engine codes today off of my 93 gt. vert. I wanted to know what a barometric sensor actually does and i got a few codes that i dont know what to do to fix them. i got a code 81 which says its a thermactor air circuit. what the hell does that mean ? also got an 82 -themactor air circuit,intergrated controller circuit ??? and an 85 -canister purge circuit ?? don't know what that means either. if anyone can help me decipher these codes it would definately be appreciated.

BP sensor = http://fordfuelinjection.com/?p=32
Codes 81 & 82 = TAB/TAD solenoids = thermactor or smog system control solenoids = the 2 small ones behind the RH strut tower


Code 85 = CANP solenoid =

The CANP?.... if you don't have emissions tests to worry about and are not bothered by a little smell of gas ..... sure
