Viewing Altitude Records

Use the Data Recall Mode to view manual saved altitude readings and automatically saved high altitude, 
low altitude, total ascent, and total descent values. Altitude data records are created and saved in the 
Altimeter Mode.

To view altitude records

1. Use 

D

 to select the Data Recall Mode (

REC

) as shown on page E-16.

 About one second after 

REC

 appears on the display, the display 

will change to show the fi rst record of the memory area you were 
viewing when you last exited the Data Recall Mode.

2. Use 

B

 to select the memory area you want.

 For detailed information about auto saved values, see “Auto Save Values” (page E-54).

4. After you are fi nished viewing data, use 

D

 to exit the Data Recall Mode.

----

 will be displayed if data has been deleted or if there is no corresponding data due to error, etc. 

In such cases, total ascent (

ASC

) and total descent (

DSC

) values will show zero.

 When the total ascent (

ASC

) or total descent (

DSC

) exceeds 99,995 meters (or 327,980 feet), the 

applicable value will restart from zero.

 When the total ascent (

ASC

) or total descent (

DSC

) value 

becomes fi ve digits long, the rightmost (ones) digit is shown in the 
lower right of the display. The nearby illustration shows the display 
when the value of

To clear the contents of a specifi c memory area

1. Use 

D

 to enter the Data Recall Mode.

2. Use 

B

 to select the memory area you want to clear.

 Note that the contents of the memory area you select will be 

deleted as soon as you perform step 3 below. The clear operation 
cannot be undone, so double check to make sure you really want 
to delete the contents of the memory area you select here.

3. Hold down 

E

 until 

CLR Hold

 appears on the display and then 

Hold

disappears.

 This deletes the record you displayed in step 2.

 Release 

E

 after 

CLR

 appears on the display.

Viewing Tide and Moon Data

The Tide/Moon Data Mode shows tide and Moon information for the Home City you selected in the 
Timekeeping Mode.

 See “Moon Phase Indicator” (page E-73) for information about the moon phase indicator and “Tide 

Graph” (page E-75) for information about the tide graph.

 All of the operations in this section are performed in the Tide/Moon Data Mode (page E-16).

Note

 It takes about two seconds to calculate tide graph data. You will not be able to display a setting screen 

while data calculation is in progress.

 Moon age is calculated to an accuracy of ±1 day.

Tide Data

The Tide Graph that appears fi rst when you enter the Tide/Moon Data Mode shows the data at 6:00 a.m. 
for your currently selected Home City (tide site) on the current date, according to the Timekeeping Mode. 
From there you can specify another time on the same date.

 If the tide data is not correct, check your Timekeeping Mode settings and correct them if necessary.

 If you feel that the information shown by the Tide Graph is different from actual tide conditions, you 

need to adjust the high tide time. See “Adjusting the High Tide Time” (page E-71) for more information.

E-69

Moon Data

The Moon phase and Moon age information that appears fi rst when you enter the Tide/Moon Data Mode 
shows the data at noon for your currently selected Home City on the current date, according to the 
Timekeeping Mode. After that you can specify another date to view data.

 If the Moon data is not correct, check your Timekeeping Mode settings and correct them if necessary.

 If the Moon phase indicator shows a phase that is a mirror image of the actual Moon phase in your 

area, you can use the procedure under “Reversing the Displayed Moon Phase” (page E-72) to change 
it.

To enter the Tide/Moon Data Mode

Use

D

 to select the Tide/Moon Data Mode (

TIDE

) as shown on page 

E-16.

 About one second after 

TIDE

 appears on the display, the display will 

change to show the moon age.

E-70

To view Moon Data for a particular date, or Tide Data for a particular date and time

1. In the Tide/Moon Data Mode, use 

A

 (+) and 

C

 (–) to scroll to the 

date whose tide and Moon information you want to view.

 After you select a date, the watch starts to calculate Moon and tide 

data for the date you selected. The calculation operation takes 
about two seconds, and is indicated by movement in the Moon 
Phase indicator and the Tide Graph on the display. You can use 

A

 and 

C

 to change to another date while a calculation operation 

is in progress.

 After calculation is complete, the Moon information (Moon age and 

phase) and tide information (current tide level and tide range) will 
be displayed for the date you selected.

2. While the Moon information (Moon age and phase) and tide information 

(tide level and tide range for the current date) are displayed, you can 
press

B

 (+) to advance the displayed tide range by one hour.

 You also can use 

A

 (+) and 

C

 (–) to change the date.

 Update of the Moon Phase indicator and the Tide Graph is 

stopped while any of the following is occurring.

During button operation
While an alarm is sounding
While a countdown beeper is sounding
During display illumination

Adjusting the High Tide Time

Use the following procedure to adjust the high tide time within a particular date. You can fi nd out high tide 
information for your area from a tide table, the Internet, or your local newspaper.

To adjust the high tide time

1. In the Tide/Moon Data Mode, use 

A

 (+) and 

C

 (–) to scroll to the 

date whose high tide time you want to change.

2. Hold down 

E

 until 

SET Hold

 appears on the display and then the 

hour digits start to fl ash.

3. Press 

A

 (+) and 

C

 (–) to change the hour setting.

4. When the hour is the setting you want, press 

D

.

 This will cause the minute digits to fl ash.

5. Press 

A

 (+) and 

C

 (–) to change the minute setting.

6. When the minute setting is the way you want, press 

E

 to exit the 

adjustment screen and return to the Tide/Moon Data Mode screen.

 Pressing 

A

 and 

C

 at the same time while the time adjustment 

screen is displayed (steps 3 through 6 above) will return the high 
tide time to its initial factory default setting.

 Changing the Home City setting in the Timekeeping Mode returns 

the high tide time to its initial value.

 The high tide time setting is not affected by the DST (summer time) 

setting of the Timekeeping Mode.

 On some days, there are two high tides. With this watch, you can 

adjust the fi rst high tide time only. The second high tide time for 
that day is adjusted automatically based on the fi rst high tide time.
