11.6 Altimeter Mode - 

Sea Level Pressure Adjustment

Why Need to adjust the Sea Level Pressure

!

As  altitude  is  calculated  from  the  mean  sea  level. 
Air  pressure  changes  contribute  to  the  changes  of 
the  mean  sea  level.

!

Using  the  Watch  in  a  place  that  has  a  different 
sea  level  pressure  will  affect  the altitude  readings. 

!

To  achieve  a  more  accurate  reading,  the  sea  level 
pressure  needs  to  be  updated  from  place  to p l a c e  
and  from  time  to  time.

How  to    Adjust  the  Altimeter  Using  Sea  Level 
Pressure Adjustment

!

You  can  adjust  the  current  altitude  reading  by  sea 
level pressure adjustment by the following:

!

To  adjust  the  Watch  using 

,  press  the  [S/S]  button  in 

Display,  and  the  sea  level  pressure 

reading  will  appear.

!

When  the  sea  level  pressure  reading  appears, 
press  the  [S/S]  or  [L/R]  button  to  increase  or 
decrease  the  number  to  the  target  number. 
(Hold down  the  button  to  change  the  number  at 
a  higher speed).

!

If  the  adjustment  is  completed,  hold  the  [M] 
button  to  confirm  the  adjustment  and  exit  the 
adjustment  display.

!

To  select  the  Adjustment  Display,  hold  the  [M] 
button  in  the  Altimeter  Mode.    Then  press  the 
[M]  button  to  select  among  the  Zero  Altitude, 
Absolute  Altitude,  Sea  Level  Pressure  and 
Factory  Default Adjustment.

(reset  the  Watch  to  factory  default)  and    "NO" 
(abort  the  resetting). 

!

To  exit  the  Adjustment  Display,  hold  the  [M]

selected  when  exiting  the  Adjustment  Display, 
the  "DONE"  Display  will  appear  for  2  seconds 
prior  to  the  normal  operation.

Absolute Altitude Adjustment

Before  Adjusting  the  Altitude 

!

Adjusting  the  altimeter  at  a  place  where  the 
altitude  is  known,  such  as  sea  level  (0m)  or 
beside  an altitude  sign  pole  (e.g.,  89  m).

!

The  altitude  is  input  into  the  Watch  during  the 
adjustment.

IMPORTANT:

  Inputting  an  incorrect  altitude  during 

the  adjustment  results  a  misleading  altitude  in  the 
future. 

 

To  Adjust  the  Altimeter  Using  Absolute  Altitude 
Adjustment

!

You  can  adjust  the  current  altitude  reading  to  an 
absolute  altitude  value  by  the  following:

!

To  adjust  the  Watch  by  using 

,  press  the  [S/S]  button  in  the 

Display,  and  the  altitude 

reading  will  appear.

!

When  the  altitude  reading  (the  last  setting) 
appears,  press  the   [S/S]  or    [L/R]  button  to 
increase  or  decrease  the  number  to  the  target 
altitude.  (Hold down  the  button  to  change  the 
number  at  a  higher speed).  

!

If  the  setting  is  completed,  hold  the  [M]  button 
to  confirm  the  setting  and  exit  the  adjustment 
display.

NOTE:   

Once  you  have  adjusted  the  altitude  using 

absolute  altitude  adjustment  at  a  place  (e.g.  your 
office  where  the  altitude  is  100m),  the  Watch  will 
store  the  figure  (100m)   for  you  to  adjust  the  altitude 
the  next  time  at  the  same  place.

!

To  select  the  Adjustment  Display,  hold  the  [M] 
button  in  Altimeter  Mode.    Then  press  the  [M]
