Technical specifications for Indu Altimeter with backup bat-
tery. For the rest of the specifications see Table 1.

1.3

Options

Indu Altimeter comes in a few variants regarding scale and backup
battery. LCD display can have options, too.

1.3.1

Scale Options

The instrument can be delivered with two different scales. One scale
is in feet and the other scale is in meters.

The scale must be specified at the time of order.

The QNH (baro-correction) units are also optional. You can choose
between:

hPa in the range of (590 – 1080) with one hPa step.

inHg in the range of (17.42 – 31.89) with 0.01 inHg step.
