 HOW THE OUTBREAKER  WORKS

The OUTBREAKER sports watch comes equipped with a
barometer (measuring altitude, barometric pressure, and
weather conditions), a weather forecast display, a thermom-
eter, a heart rate monitor (RS109/RP 109 only), and a bicycle
computer to display information when cycling (RP109 only).

HOW THE ALTIMETER, THERMOMETER, AND
BAROMETER WORK

The patented baro-compensation technology used in this watch
allows it to distinguish between barometric pressure change
and altitude pressure change. This means it can detect baro-
metric pressure (localized weather conditions) as distinct from
changes in altitude pressure, and gives more accurate read-
ings than most average devices (which frequently rely on
manual deactivation before initiating a new forecast).

A MULTI-SYSTEM FACILITY

The product is designed for use during many kinds of activity.
It can display and store a range of information of interest to the
casual and more serious sports or exercise enthusiast. The
watch includes the following Modes: CLOCK, ALTIMETER,
CARDIO (Heart Rate) (RS109/RP109 only), BIKE (RP109
only), and PC (docking station and CDROM are optional for the
RA109 and RS109, and are not supplied).  It is equipped with
a multi-system facility that allows you to combine information
according to your preference, such as altitude and time, altitude
and heart rate, or bike speed and altitude, etc. You may also

use the stopwatch or timer (countdown) facility in combination
with other functions, and both will continue to run in the
background while you use other features of the watch.

The heart-rate monitor and altimeter features of the
OUTBREAKER watch include customized settings. Maximum
and minimum heart rate limits can be set for use during
exercise, and the altimeter can be set to register ascending and
descending limits. In both cases a short beep signifies either
limit has been exceeded. The watch also has a clock, calendar,
and pressure reading apparatus, all of which need to be set
according to the current date and location.

TOUR MODE

The watch features a TOUR Mode  in which you can record all
data from a single trip, or workout, and then download this
information onto your PC for storage and viewing. The watch
can recall 99 different single tours, trips or workouts.

The docking station and CD-ROM are required (op-

tional for the RA109 and RS109, but not supplied) to download
information from TOUR Mode.

PC SOFTWARE KIT (RP109 ONLY)

A docking station is provided with the watch for connecting to
a computer, along with a CD-ROM for installing the necessary
software onto your computer.  You can also use the software to
change some of the watch settings.

The RZ910 PC Kit can be purchased separately for the

RA109 and RS109.
