Measurement Unit Selection and Barometer Adjustment 

12.2 Barometer Mode - 

Absolute Pressure Adjustment

12.3 Barometer Mode - 

Factory Default Adjustment

How  to  Switch  between  Measurement  Units

!

The  Watch  can  display  pressure  in  mb/hPa  or 
inHg;  the  Watch    can  display  temperature  in 
degree  Celsius  (

C)  or  degree Fahrenheit  (

F).

!

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

Why  the  Barometer  Needs  to  be  Adjusted

!

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

!

But  for  the  serious  users,  the  Watch  includes  2 
adjustment  procedures.

Barometer  Adjustment 

!

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

!

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

!

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

!

For in-depth information for each of the adjustment 
methods, please read the coming sections.

NOTE

:  When  the  Ski  Function  is  turned  ON, 

Barometer Adjustment function is prohibited.

Before  Calibrating  the  Barometer 

!

Before  calibrating  the  Barometer,  you  must  have 
the absolute  pressure  of  your  current  position,   
because the pressure  value  will  be  input  into  the 
Watch  during  the  adjustment.

!

Consult  the  nearest  o b s e r v a t o r y   t o   g e t   t h e  
ambient barometric  pressure  of  your  current 
position.

IMPORTANT:

  Inputting  an  incorrect  pressure  value 

during  the  calibration  procedure  results  a  misleading 
pressure  reading  in  the  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  Watch  using 

,  p r e s s  t h e  [ S / S ]  b u t t o n  i n  t h e 

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  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.

!

To  select  the  Adjustment  Display,  hold  the  [M] 
button  in  the  Barometer  Mode,  then  press  the  [M] 
button  to  select  between  the  Absolute  Pressure 
and  Factory  Default Adjustments.

How  to  Adjust  the  Barometer  Using  the  Factory 
Default  Adjustment

You  can  also  adjust  the  pressure  reading 
calculation  using  the  factory  default  value.

To  adjust  the  Watch  using  the  factory  default 
adjustment,  press  the  [S/S]  button  in  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  Watch  to  factory  default)  or  "NO"  (abort  the 
resetting).  

!

To  exit  the  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  Absolute  Pressure  and 
Factory  Default Adjustments.

!

Functional  Display

!

The  Watch  includes  three  Barometer  functional 
displays:  Temperature,  Sea  Level  Pressure  and 
History  Graph  Display.  One  of  the  three  functional 
displays  will   appear  in  the  top  row  of  the  display. 

Fast  sampling

!

During  the Altitude  Mode,  hold  down  the  [L/R]  button 
will  activate  fast  sampling  (sample  per  second)  for 
five  minutes.

Temperature  Display

!

In  Temperature  Display,    the  current  temperature  in 
degree  Celsius  (

C)  or  degree  Fahrenheit  (

F) 

shows  in  the  top  row  of  the  display.

IMPORTANT:

  If  you  want  to  have  an  accurate  reading 

of  air  temperature,  you  must  take  off  the  Watch  from 
the  wrist  (for  20  to  30  minutes)  that  allows  no  body 
temperature  effect  on  your  watch. 

Sea  Level  Pressure  Display

!

In  Sea  Level  Pressure  Display,  the  sea  level 
pressure  shows  in  the  top  row  of  the  display.

History  Graph  Display

!
