Operating Procedure

3. During the warm-up period, enter your local elevation above sea

level into the instrument memory. The instrument is sensitive to

elevation changes of 500 feet (152 meters), and the local elevation

must be entered into the instrument memory upon initial use.

Normal barometric variations do not affect the performance of the

instrument. Once the elevation has been entered, it does not require

entry again unless the instrument is moved to a new elevation.

To locate your local elevation, call your area airport, library, or use

the internet address of www.topozone.com and follow the on-

screen prompts.

The screen

USAGE ELEVATION <<<NOT SET>>> is displayed

during warm-up if the elevation has not been set. Set the elevation

as follows:
A. During the warm-up period, depress and hold the

B pushbutton

until the display reads

USAGE ELEVATION, 400 FEET.

This is the factory default of 400 feet (122 meters).

B. Use the

A and B pushbuttons to adjust the elevation reading,

to the nearest 100-foot (30-meter) increment, to the local

elevation. Th

e A button increases the elevation setting in

100-foot (30-meter) increments. The

B pushbutton decreases

the elevation setting in 100-foot (30-meter) increments. The

elevation setting is adjustable from 0-9000 feet (0-273 meters)

and is displayed during adjustment.

C. When the correct setting is reached, allow the instrument to

sit for approximately 20 seconds. Do not push either of the

buttons. The setting is automatically stored into the instrument

memory.

NOTE: Failure to correctly enter the local elevation may result in

detection errors.
