3.5.2. Logbook
The logbook allows you to save information regarding, for example, a hiking trip.
When you start the logbook, it starts gathering information about the cumulative
ascents and descents, average ascent and descent rates, highest and lowest points
and specific marks you can set during the trip. When you stop the logbook, the
information gathered thus far is recorded as a logbook file that can be viewed later.
The maximum duration of one logbook is 168 hours (one week). After this the logbook
stops automatically. The Suunto X6/X6M can store 20 logbook files at one time. More
logbooks can be saved on your PC with the help of the PC Interface. For more
information, see page 52.
NOTE: To record a complete graph of the activity, use the stopwatch in the Chrono
mode.
