3.3.2. Use
With the Use function you can define whether the air pressure measurement is used
to measure the altitude or to represent the weather conditions.
If you select Alti (altimeter), the measured air pressure is displayed as altitude and all
changes of atmospheric pressure are interpreted as changes in altitude.
When the Alti use is selected, the altitude reading of Compass, Hiking and Hiking
Chrono modes changes, but the atmospheric pressure (sea level) in the second row
of the Weather mode remains constant. The absolute pressure changes if it is se-
lected as a shortcut on the third row of the Weather mode.
If you select Baro (barometer), the measured air pressure is displayed as weather
information and all changes in atmospheric pressure are interpreted as being due to
a change in the weather.
When the Baro is selected, the altitude reading in the Compass, Hiking and Hiking
Chrono modes remains constant. The atmospheric pressure (sea level and absolute)
in the Weather mode changes.
