Press SET while in the ALTITUDE function to enter the SETTINGS menu.
There are five settings related to the Altitude function.
SET REF ALT Setting
Press YES to set your current altitude as a base reference altitude. The altitude display
will show how many feet (meters) you have gained or lost relative to the reference
altitude. After a reference altitude is set, altitude is shown in the display with a small
triangle to the left. To reset back to an altitude display, you must EDIT REF ALT as
described below.
EDIT REF ALT Setting
Manually set a reference altitude. Set the REF ALT to zero if you want true altitude (sea
level) to be used as a reference altitude.
CALIB ALTITUDE Setting
To calibrate the altimeter press YES. Enter your known altitude above sea-level. Notice
the pressure value, below, changes as well.
If you don’t know your altitude, but know the local pressure from a reliable source adjust
altitude up or down until the pressure corresponds with their readings.
If you do not have access to a known altitude or known pressure use the GPS ELEVATION
side function as your calibration altitude, section 7.2-1 until you can find your known
altitude from a map or other means.
The altimeter needs to be calibrated periodically to achieve accurate readings.
RESET MIN/MAX Setting
This setting allows you to reset the minimum and maximum altitude values.
