GPS Navigation

The Altimeter Page

You can customize the ‘View’ option displays using the “Zoom Ranges”

option to determine time, distance, pressure, and elevation parameters.

If you know the correct elevation for your location, you can increase the

accuracy of the altimeter using the “Calibrate Altimeter” option. Use the

“Reset” option to clear recorded data from the page and to begin record-

ing new data.

Plot Over Time/Distance

These two measurement options (changes over a set period of time

or changes over a set distance) apply only to the “View Elevation Plot”

option, while the “View Pressure Plot” option is measured by time and

pressure only. When one option is active, the other is displayed on the

Page Options Menu.

View Pressure/Elevation Plots

When selecting the “View Elevation Plot” option you can plot a proﬁle

of elevation changes that occur as you navigate over a set distance or

period of time. When you select “View Pressure Plot” you can view a

record of changes in barometric pressure for a set period of time. When

one option is active the other displays on the Page Options Menu.

To view Elevation or Pressure plots:

1. Use the ROCKER key to highlight the desired option from the

Options Menu and then press in to display the plot.

2. Adjust time and distance measurement as desired using the

Elevation Plot Zoom Ranges explained on following pages.

3. To clear the plot and start again, you must clear the “Track

Log”.
