How to Switch between Measurement Units
!
The Watch display altitude either in meter (m) or
feet (ft).
!
The Watch display temperature either in deegree
Celsius ( C) or degree Fahrenheit ( F).
!
To switch among different unit, hold down the
[S/S] button to change the units following the
adjacent diagram.

Absolute and Relative Altitude
!
Absolute
altitude is the vertical
distance between
your current altitude and Sea Level (0 m).
!
Relative altitude is the vertical
distance between
your current altitude and the altitude of a specific
level at
which you set the altimeter to zero.
!
An example of using relative altitude:
!
The altitude difference between the starting
point and the finish point of a trek can be
measured by Relative Altitude.
!
Set the altitude to 'Zero' at the starting point,
while the Watch will show the altitude difference
at the finish point of the trek.
How to Switch between Absolute and Relative
Altitude
!
C h e c k t h e c o m i n g c h a p t e r ' Z e r o A l t i t u d e
Adjustment' Chapter for more detail on how to set
the current altitude to zero altitude.
!
An '
r
' indicator will be shown with the altitude
reading as long as the Altitude has been adjusted
by the 'Zero' adjustment.
!
To switch the Watch back to absolute altitude
measurement, employ one of the following altitude
adjustments: Factory Default Adjustment, Sea
Level Pressure Adjustment and Absolute Altitude
Adjustment. Check the respective chapters for
more detail on how to employ the adjustment.
Why the
Need to be Adjusted
!
As the absolute altitude is calculated from air
pressure, the change of air pressure would affect
the altitude reading.
!
To achieve a more accurate result, the Watch
needs to be calibrated from time to time as
pressure may change gradually even within hours.
NOTE:
The Watch includes an automatic Sea Level
Pressure comparison feature, this smart feature
allows NO fluctuation altitude readings will be
recorded when staying at the same altitude.
Altimeter
?
Altimeter Adjustment
!
There are 4 kinds of adjustment method: Zero
Altitude, Absolute Altitude, Sea Level Pressure and
Factory Default Adjustment.
!
Zero Altitude: Adjust altitude mandatory to zero for
relative altitude measurement. If the altimeter is
adjusted by Zero Adjustment, an "
r
" indicator will
be appeared on the display.
!
Absolute Altitude: Set altitude to known value and it
can recall for next setting.
!
Sea Level Pressure: Input a specific sea level
pressure which get from official site.
!
Factory Default: Restore the Watch to default
factory setting where assume Sea Level Pressure
is 1013.2 mb
NOTE
: When the Ski Function is turned ON, Altimeter
Adjustment function is prohibited.
NOTE:
Altitude is calibrated independently on each
mode. For example, if absolute altitude is selected,
the effect of the previous sea level pressure setting
will be ignored.

displays: Temperature and History Display. One of
the two functional displays will be appeared on the
top row of the display.
!
Press the [S/S] to select between Temperature and
History 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 top display shows the
current temperature in degree Celsius ( C) or degree
Fahrenheit ( F).
IMPORTANT:
To get an accurate reading of air
temperature, you must remove the watch from the
wrist that allows no body temperature effect on your
watch.
History Display
!
The Watch records the altitude reading automatically
every hour at the hour, i.e 1:00, 2:00, 3:00 and etc.
These records will be plotted into a altitude record
graph.
!
In History Display, the altitude record graph shows
on the top row of the display.
!
To review the altitude records of the last 23 hours,
press the [L/R] button to move cursor left cyclically,
at the same time, the respective altitude record and
its recording time (flashing) will appear on the
display.
