Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if…
…there are no reactions to any buttons?
- You need to reset the wrist unit. Resetting only
clears the date and daily alarms, not the recorded
files. The altimeter and barometer calibration
values return to their default values (standard sea
level pressure 1013 hPa/29.90 inHg). To reset the
wrist unit, press the UP, DOWN, LIGHT and STOP
buttons down simultaneously. If you do not press
any buttons for approx. one minute after resetting
the wrist unit, the display goes to TIME mode.
...the animation on the display is not moving
although I am?
- First, make sure you are recording, see 'Start
Action Recording'. Then move effectively and fast
enough for a minimum of 30 seconds for the zone
pointer (animation) to move. Too slow or too
careful (e.g. tiptoeing) movement may also stop
the animation, as such movement is not
considered beneficial enough.
…the altitude reading changes even though I stay
at the same altitude?
- Altitude measurement is based on barometric
pressure. Changes in altitude or weather cause
changes in the pressure. For example, if you stay
at the same altitude but the weather and pressure
change, the altimeter interprets the pressure
change as a change in altitude.
