Calibrating the Altimeter
Because the Rino 130 relies on the Barometric pressure to determine the elevation and the
pressure at any given elevation can fluctuate, you can calibrate the altimeter to increase its ac-
curacy. You must know the elevation or pressure at your current location, information you can
obtain from a map or other reliable source.
To manually calibrate the altimeter:
1. Use the THUMB STICK to access the Option Menu.
2. Highlight the ‘Calibrate Altimeter’ option and press the THUMB STICK to display the
Calibration Page.
3. At the message asking “Do You Know The Correct Elevation?” highlight the on-screen ‘Yes’
button and press the THUMB STICK IN to enter your elevation. When finished, highlight
‘OK’ and press it IN to return to the Altimeter Page.
