6.1.5 Why is there a symbol above the Mode Indicator Bar and
what does it mean?
The symbol indicates that one, two, or three daily alarms are activated.
6.2 TIME
6.2.1 Why do the segments on the circumference increase and
decrease when I am in the Time mode?
The main function of the segments is related to the Compass mode, where a division into 36 segments is necessary due
to the 360-degree scale of a compass. In the Time mode, the segments show the advancement of seconds. Because the
number of seconds differs from the number of degrees, it is impossible for the segments to be consecutively lit up; they
now light up or extinguish, thereby marking the passing of every second.
6.2.2 What is the longest time I can set in the timer?
The maximum range of the countdown timer is 23 hours 59 minutes and 59 seconds.
6.3 BAROMETER
6.3.1 What is the little box on the top left of the display?
It is the barometric trend indicator that shows the general direction of weather changes. The display is based on
barometer measurements for the last 6 hours.
6.3.2 Does the Wristop Computer show future trends in weather
conditions?
No, the Wristop Computer continually accumulates data on barometric pressure existent within a 3 to 6 hour window and
displays general barometric trends in weather based on the accumulated data.
