SKI CHRONOGRAPH SKI CHRONOGRAPH
SETTING THE SKI CHRONOGRAPH
The primary display of the Ski Chronograph shows your current
altitude in the top line, a 10-second count-down timer in the center
line and your stored base altitude in the lower line.
STORING A BASE ALTITUDE
A Base Altitude can be stored either automatically or manually.
AUTOMATIC STORE –
When you are physically at the location you want to establish
as your base altitude (such as if you are standing at the bottom
of a run you want to time), simply
PRESS & HOLD the S2
key. The center line of the display will show STORE while the
current altitude is being stored as the base altitude. When
complete the center line of the display will show
STORED and
you may RELEASE the S2 key. Your new base altitude will
now be displayed in the lower line of the display.
The Alterra/Aerial units are equipped with a timer system which is started at the top of a run and will
track the time of your ski runs back to the base, stopping at a preset base altitude. STORING A BASE ALTITUDE (continued)
MANUAL STORE –
If you wish to manually store a base altitude, PRESS & HOLD
the S5 key. The display will show HOLD in the center line
and ADJUST in the bottom line for a period of approximately
3 seconds and then automatically change to the screen for
manual adjustment of the
BASE ALTITUDE with altitude
displayed in the center line. ADJUST the BASE ALTITUDE
using the S1 and S2 keys until you have adjusted the display
to your chosen altitude. QUICK PRESS the S5 key to exit the
setting mode and return to the primary SKI CHRONOGRAPH
screen.
NOTE: We recommend you store your base altitude often
as local pressure changes may cause it to shift up or down
and effect the accuracy of the timing.
OPERATING THE SKI CHRONOGRAPH
Once you have established a BASE ALTITUDE , go to the top of
a ski run. Before starting your run simply QUICK PRESS the S1
key. The 10 second countdown timer will start. When the timer
reaches zero
(0) the watch will beep and you should begin skiing.
The timer will automatically stop once you reach your programmed
base altitude. At the end of a run, the display will show your
TIME FOR THE RUN in the center line of the display, your
AVERAGE RATE OF DESCENT in the upper line and your BASE
ALTITUDE in the lower line.
To clear the information from the display and get ready for
another run,
QUICK PRESS the S5 key to return to the initial SKI
CHRONOGRAPH screen.
NOTE: If you reach the bottom of the run and the SKI
CHRONOGRAPH does not stop automatically, this means
a pressure change has caused the base altitude setting to
become inaccurate. To manually stop the timing,
QUICK
PRESS the S2 key.
