Note also that if you have purchased a 650 without the barometer option, the selection
Store barometer
will not be present. Decide whether or not you want to store GPS and barometer information with your
data file and activate/deactivate the
Store Lat and Long
and
Store Barometer
selections appropriately.
Leaving these selections active will occupy memory in the 650 during logging and this factor may be a
consideration if you have purchased a 650 with “Low” memory and you do not really require this
information in your file. Once these selections have been made, highlight the

selection and
