11.1 Barometer Mode - 

Unit Selection and Barometer Adjustment 

How  to  Switch  between  Units

!

The  Watch  can  display  pressure  in  mb/hPa      or 
inHg  and  temperature  in  degree  Celsius  ( C)  or 
degree Fahrenheit  ( F).

!

To  switch  among  different  units,  hold  the  [S/S] 
button  to  change  the  units  following  the  adjacent  
unit  selection  sequence.

Why  the  Barometer  Needs  to  be  Adjusted

!

The  Watch  has  been  calibrated  for  you  in  the 
factory.  For  normal  use,  you  do  not  need  to 
calibrate  the   Barometer. 

!

For  serious  users,  the  watch  can  be  adjusted  or 
calibrated.

°

Barometer  Adjustment 

!

There  are  2  kinds  of  Barometer  adjustment 
methods:  Absolute  Pressure  and  Factory  Default 
Adjustment.

!

Absolute  Pressure:  Input  the  known  atmospheric 
pressure into the Watch directly.

!

Factory Default: Restore  the  Watch  to  the  factory 
default setting.

!

For  in-depth  information  for  each  adjustment 
method,  please  read  the  coming  sections  for 
details.

11.2 Barometer Mode - 

Absolute Pressure Adjustment

Before  Calibrating  the  Barometer 

!

You  have  to  know  the absolute  pressure  of  your 
current  position  because that pressure  value  will 
be  input  into  the Watch  during  the  adjustment.

pressure  reading  in  future.  

How  to  Adjust  the  Barometer  Using  Absolute 
Pressure  Adjustment

!

You  can  adjust  the  current  pressure  reading  to 
an  absolute  pressure  value.

To  adjust  the  pressure  using 

,  press  the  [S/S]  button  on  the 

Display,  and  the  pressure 

reading  will  appear.

!

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

!

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

!

To  select  the  Adjustment  Display,  hold  the  [M] 
button  in  the  Barometer  Mode.    Then  press  the 
[M]  button  to  select  between  the  Absolute

11.3 Barometer Mode - 

Factory Default Adjustment

How  to  Adjust  the  Barometer  Using  Factory 
Default  Adjustment

You  can  adjust  the  pressure  reading  calculation 
back  to  the  factory  default  value.

To  adjust  the  pressure  using  the  factory  default 
adjustment,  press  the  [S/S]  button  on  the  Factory 
Default  Display,  and  the  indicator  "NO"  will 
appear.

!

When  the  indicator  "NO"  appears,  press  the  [S/S] 
or  [L/R]  button  to  select  between  "YES"  (reset 
the  pressure  to  the  factory  default)  or  "NO" 
(abort  the  resetting).  

!

To  exit  Adjustment  Display,  hold  the  [M]  button 
for  2  seconds,  and  then  the  Watch  will  go  back 
to  the  Barometer  Mode.    If  the  "YES"  Display  is 
selected  when  exiting  the Adjustment  Display,  the 
"DONE"  Display  will  appear  for  2  seconds  prior 
to  the  normal  operation.

!

!

To  select  the  Adjustment  Display,  hold  the  [M] 
button  in  the  Barometer  Mode.    Then  press  the 
[M]  button  to  select  between  the  Absolute

The  Watch  includes  three  Barometer  functional 
displays:  Temperature,  Sea  Level  Pressure  and 
History  Displays. 

!

One  of  the  three  functional  displays  will  appear  in 
the  top  row  of  the  display.    The  current  (history) 
pressure  and  the  current  (history)  time  are  shown  in

IMPORTANT:

  If  you  want  to  have  an  accurate  reading 

of  air  temperature,  you  must  take  off  the  watch  from 
the  wrist  that  prevents  body  temperature  effect  on 
your  watch.  

Sea  Level  Pressure  Display

!

On  the  Sea  Level  Pressure  Display,  the  current  sea 
level  pressure  is  shown  in  the  top  row  of  the  display.

Sea  Level  Pressure  History  Display

!

The  Watch  records  the  sea  level  pressure  readings 
automatically  on  the  hour,  i.e  1:00,  2:00,  3:00  and 
etc.  These  records  will  be  plotted  into  a  pressure 
record  graph. 

!

In  Sea  Level  History  Display,  the  pressure  record 
graph  is  shown  in  the  top  row  of  the  display.

To  review  the  pressure  records  of  the  last  23  hours, 
press  the  [L/R]  button  to  move  the  cursor  to  the  left 
cyclically,  and  the  corresponding  pressure  record 
and  its  recording  time  (flashing)  will  appear  on  the
