5.3 CALIBRATING THE COMPASS

{A compass calibration should be done vien the Wristop Computer is subject to close proximity of magnetic sources, extreme cold weather, every ime the battery is replaced or suspected that her environmental conditions have effected the compass readings. Note: We also recommend calibrating the compass before using the compas the first time and'every time leaving for a hike where the compass wil be used.

To beginthe calibration:

1. PRESS the [Seleci] bution ice when in the main compass mode. Field 1 displays the lex" CMP”. Field 3 displays

the text'CAL” (Fig. 24). PRESS the [Seleci] button and holdin for 2 seconds. Located in Field 2, the text-PUSH" wi begin Lo flash (Fig. 25). PRESS the [- button to start calibration: In Field 2, 360° appears and he Outer Circumerence displays all segments li (Fig. 26). When this occurs, hold the Wristop Computer level and startto slow tum the device around a ful irlein alevel position. The direction ofturning does not matter, The lit segments wil be turned off as the uming proceeds. When the first full circle is completed, the instrument wil inform the user wilhin one minute of whether he calibration was successful isplaying the text “dOnE” in Field 2 (Fig. 27) or iflhe process needs to be repealed displaying “PUSH” and “"in Field 2. Note: The usermay needo perfomm the rotating ofthe compas more than wice around farthe calibration o be completed. Notez: the text “FIL” appears in Field 2 (Fig. 28), the battery should be removed and put backn before trying o proceed with the calibration process. The removal of the battery wil reset" the unit.

5. Once the calibration is successful, PRESS the [Mode] button to accept the process and exitthe calibration mode.

Note: is important to hold the Wiistop Computer level during the calibration process to ensure accuracy. ‘The compas calibration is complete.

5.4 START LINE FUNCTION

‘The / + marks on both sides of the display will help determine the favored end ofthe start ine in a race. Touse the the function: Algnthe wristop with the wind direction. Press [BEARING/-] button to lock the bearing. Align the NORTH on the bezel with the NORTH arrow on the compass. Steer along the start ine and memorize he heading You are steering towards the favored end of the line ifthe corresponding heading reading on the bezel appears on the upper partofthe display (between the + marks). the corresponding heading appears on the lower part ofthe display (between — marks) you are steering away rom the favored end.

Yes, iis waterproof to a depth of 30 meters (100 ). Rain and other normal exposure to water will not effectits operation. You can suim earing your Wistop Computer Hourever, he Wristop Computer is NOT à dving device.

6.1.2 How long will the battery last?

Allusers employ the productin different ways. Battery ife depends mainly on how much the backight and Ihe compas are used. The low-baltery warning symbol appears on the display when 5 lo 15 percent ofbattery capacity remains. This Should give the user plenty oftime to safely change the battery.

6.1.3 What do the segments on the circumference mean?

In he Baromeler mode, one fl circle equals 100 mbar or 1 ing, and {ne segments inicate Ie pressure over full hundred mbar or over aflling. When using the diference measurement funcion f {he barometer the segments indicate the change in atmospherl pressure éhertothe rightifhe pressure has risen rl the fie pressure has Groppes Inthe main Compass mode, he segments indicate ne No ie. he one segmentiicales North andere segments point South you have set he compas: o rack a certain bearing, Ie segments on he ciroumerenceindicale {ne différence betweenthe direction inwich you wantto go and your actual bearing

6.1.4 Why do the segments on the circumference go to the left

(counterclockwise)? Normal. they ahays go lo the right (clockwise) from the 12-noon position: You are in the difference measurement mode and your unitis showing a decreasing value. In normal mode, the segment displayincreases dlockwise, butifyou are in a mode that shows you differences, all decreasing values go counterclackwise from the center position, and all increasing values go clockwise. So, Lis “minus” o the lef (counterciockwise), and “plus” to the right (clockwise).

6.1.5 Why is there a symbol above the Mode Indicator Bar and

what does it mean? ‘The symbol indicates that one, two, or three daily alarms are activated.

6.2.1 Why do the segments on the circumference increase and

decrease when I am in the Time mode? ‘The main function ofthe segments is related 1o the Compass mode, where a divisioninto 36 segments is necessary due Lo he 360-degree scale of compass. Inthe Time mode, he segments showhe advancement ofseconds. Because the number of seconds differs from the number of degrees, iis impossible for the segments to be consecutively it up: they now light up orextinguish, thereby marking the passing of every second.

6.2.2 What is the longest time I can set in the

‘The maximum range oflhe countdown timeris 23 hours 59 minutes and 59 seconds.

6.3.1 What is the little box on the top left of the play?

Itis the barometric trend indicator that shows the general direction of weather changes. The display is based on barometer measurements forthe last hours.

6.3.2 Does the Wristop Computer show future trends in weather

conditions? No, the Wristop Computer coninually accumulates data on barametrc pressure existent within a 3 to 6 hourwindow and displays general barometrctrendé in weather based on the accumulated data. imer?

6.3.3 What does “absolute pressure” and “relative pressure”

mean? Absolute pressure isthe actual pressure in any location atany given time. Relative pressure onthe olherhand equais the corresponding pressure at se level fra certain allude that you are a. For example, fyou are at an allude of 1.000 m 3,300 the absolute pressure normal is around 900 mban/26.60inHg, The reative pressure al sea levelwould en be around 1,013 mbar/29.90inHg

6.3.4 Is the Wristop Computer temperature compensated?

Yes, the Wristap Computers temperature compensated, which means that for the temperature range specifled (-5 to +140*F/-20 to +60°C), the instrument will show accurate pressure. Within this range, the temperature has no effect on the almospheric pressure reading. “Temperature compensation does not, however, mean thatthe temperalure reading isntatal fected by body heal. Body heatwil affect the temperature reading, and to getthe correcttemperature reading of the environment remember to take the Wristop Computer of yourwrist and wait about 15 minutes foritto stabilze and show the correct temperature ofthe surroundings.
