4.1 seTTIng THe alTIMeTeR
In setting the Altimeter, there are three processes that can be performed: the Reference Altitude (known altitude at the current location);
Altitude Alarm (signals the user when a certain altitude, programmed, is reached); and Logbook Recording Interval (allows the user to
view the altitude, average rate of vertical movement and heart rate within a chosen interval of time).
. press the [select] button and hold in for  seconds. located in field  is the text “re” (indicating reference altitude), located in
Field 2, the current altitude will begin to flash (Fig. 22).
. press the [+] button to scroll the altitude upward or press the [-] button to scroll the altitude downwards.
3. at the desired reference altitude, either press the [mode] button to accept the changes and return to the main mode or press
the [Select] button to move to the next setting. Located in Field 1, the “ON” or “OFF” will begin to flash (Fig. 23).
4. press either the [+] or the [-] button to toggle between the “on” and “off” for the altitude alarm.
5. at the desired setting, press the [select] button to move to the next setting. located in the center of field , the alarm altitude
will begin to flash.
6. press the [+] button to scroll the altitude upward or press the [-] button to scroll the altitude downwards.
7. at the desired altitude, either press the [mode] button to accept the changes and return to the main mode or press the [select]
button to move to the next setting. Located in Field 1, the text INT and located in Field 2 the time interval will begin to flash (Fig.
4).
