changes. The altitude log will therefore be flat during this period. For
information on using the log recorder, see
Section 7.5.2 Recording
logs on page 30
.
You can start, stop and reset the altitude measurement while in the
BAROMETER
profile.
Possible real life situation: Recording logs in the
BAROMETER
profile
You are recording your altitude changes during a hike and decide to take a longer
break. You switch to the
BAROMETER
profile. Since the altitude recording continues
but no altitude changes are occurring, you go to the log recorder view in the
BAROMETER
profile and stop the altitude recording.
7.7 Using automatic profile
The
AUTOMATIC
profile switches between the
ALTIMETER
and
BAROMETER
profiles
according to your movements. When the
AUTOMATIC
profile is activated, [auto
icon] appears on the upper right part of the display. Depending on which
profile is activated, you can access the
ALTIMETER
or
BAROMETER
profile views
with [View].
When the device is moving 5 meters in altitude within 3 minutes, the
ALTIMETER
profile is activated. When the device does not move in altitude for 12 minutes,
the
BAROMETER
profile is activated.
NOTE:
The
AUTOMATIC
profile should not be activated all the time. Some
activities require the
BAROMETER
profile to be constantly activated even though
you might be moving (e.g. surfing). In other words, in certain situations you need
to choose a suitable profile manually.
