Normal and Relative Altitude

- T h e K 2 - 1 0 0 m e a s u r e s N o r m a l a n d R e l a t i v e

Altitudes.

-

Normal altitude is the difference between your current
altitude and SEA LEVEL. (Assuming that air pressure at
sea level is 1013.21mbar).

-

R e l a t i v e a l t i t u d e i s t h e d i f f e r e n c e b e t w e e n

current altitude and the altitude of a specific altitude level
at which you set the altimeter to 'Zero'.

-

T o u s e r e l a t i v e a l t i t u d e , f o r e x a m p l e , m e a s u r e t h e
altitude difference between the starting point and the
finish

points of a trek.

- To measure the altitude difference, set the K2-100 to

Relative Altitude display at the starting point of the trek,
the K2-100 will automatically set the altitude to 'Zero'.

-

Check the altitude at the finish point of the trek, the
K 2 - 1 0 0 w i l l s h o w t h e a l t i t u d e d i f f e r e n c e o n t h e

To Switch between the Normal and Relative Altitude

-

Press and hold the [adjust] button for 2 seconds to enter
Altitude Setting Display. Press the [adjust] button four
times to select the Normal / Relative Altitude Display.

-

Press and hold the [adjust] button to enter the setting
display of the Normal / Relative Altitude Display. Press
the [lap/reset] button to switch between the Normal and
Relative Altitude.

-

After you set the altitude, press the [mode] button to
exit the setting sequence. Press the [mode] button once
again to return to the Altitude Graph Display.

24 Hour Memory

- The K2-100 has two altitude memory functions: the 24

Hour Memory and the User Log Memory.

-

24 Hour Memory automatically records the altitude values
for every 15 minutes of the last 24 hours.

- T h e s e f i g u r e s c a n b e r e v i e w e d i n t h e 2 4 H o u r

Review the 24 Hour Memory

-

Press the [adjust] button to select the 24 Hour Memory
Display, in the Altitude Graph Display.

-

The 'ALTIMETER 24 HR MEM' will slide out and display
for 3 seconds, the 'MEM' indicator will be shown as
well.

-

The Altitude 24 hour's hist ory graph shows on the 1st row
of the display.

-

The altitude memory and temperature shows on the 2nd
row of the display.

- The time that the memory was recorded will show on

the 3rd row of the display.

-

Press the [lap/reset] button to view the memory through
backward scrolling (from -15min to -24hour), press the
[start/stop] button to view the memory through forward
scrolling (from -24 hour to -15 min).

- The User Log Memory (ULM)

User Log Memory

- The K2-100 has a built-in altitude memory function - User

Log Memory (ULM).

-

The user can set the starting/finishing time and the
sampling interval of the ULM. For example, start the
recording of the ULM at the starting point of a trek, stop
the recording of the ULM at the finish point of that trek,
and set the sampling rate as 30 minutes.

-

Check the 'To Set Sampling Rate' section for setting the
sampling rate of the ULM.

The altimeter logbook stores all altitude memory segments.

The Feature of the User Log Memory

- During the review of the ULM segments or records,

the K2-100 shows the following:

1. The date which the memory segment was recorded,
2. The time span of the memory segment,
3. The time which the altitude record was stored,
4.

The temperature at which the altitude record was
stored,

5. The scale of the history graph,
6. The max and min altitudes of the history graph,
7. The ascend/descend rate (the difference bet ween two

memory records) of the altitude record,

8. The accumulative ascend (the total ascending) and,
9. The accumulative descend (the total descending) of the

altitude record.

Ascending and Descending Rate

- The K2-100 has a built-in function for calculating the ascending

and descending rate of the Altitude of the last 24 hours.

-

T h e a s c e n d i n g a n d d e s c e n d i n g r a te i s t h e a l t i t u d e
difference between two memory records.

-

A (+) value implies ascending rate; a (-) value implies a
descending rate.
