Main Function and Operation Press MODE key to switch mode between Clock, Date, Year and Alarm Clock

Press ALTI/▲, BARO/▼, COMPASS buttons to switch between ALTIMETER MODE --- BAROMETER MODE --- COMPASS MODE

TIME MODE (1) Manual Time Setting Press and hold “MODE” key for 3 seconds to enter settings. Press “▼”or “▲”to change setting, and press “MODE” button to confirm and move to next setting. Setting sequence are as follow: 12/24 hour format, Hour, Minute, Second, Year, Month/Day sequence, Month, Day, Temperature unit, Pressure unit, and Altitude unit. If no button is pressed for 15 seconds, the display will return to previous mode. Press “COMPASS” button to exit the Time Setting Mode (2) Daily Alarm Setting Press “TIME/AL” button to navigate to Alarm Time Display. (“AL” icon display on the LCD ), Hold “TIME/AL” button for 3 seconds to enter alarm clock setting mode. Press “▼”or “▲”to change setting, and press “TIME/AL” button to confirm and move to next setting. The setting sequence are as follow: Hour, Minute and Alarm ON （ ）/OFF

When alarm is on, the symbol “ ” appears and when it is off, the symbol “ ” disappears.GB 4 When alarming, “ ” will flash, press any button to stop alarming. If no button pressed for 15 seconds, the alarm will auto stop after 2 minutes.

After battery inserted, the device will automatically measure the barometer readings as well as the maximum sea level pressure reading. (1) To Set and Reset Altimeter: Altimeter: measures in either meters or feet, range:-400 ~ 9000 meters. The device provide both current altitude and maximum altitude (ⅰ) Current Altitude display (ⅱ) Maximum Altitude display (“MAX” icon display on the LCD) Press “ALT” button to enter altimeter mode. Press “ALT” button again to display the maximum altitude. When LCD display current altitude, press and hold “ALT” button for 3 seconds to enter setting. Press “▼”or “▲”to adjust altitude, and press “MODE” button to confirm and quite the setting. Press “▼”and “▲” at the same time, current altitude value will be reset to 0. When LCD display maximum altitude, press “▼”and “▲” at the same time, maximum altitude record will be cleared, and reset to 0. (2) To Set Sea Level Pressure and Weather Forecast Icons (ⅰ) Current barometric pressure: (ⅱ) Sea level pressure (“SEA” icon display on the LCD) Press “BARO” button to enter Barometer mode, LCD will display the current barometric pressure, press “BARO” button again to display the sea level pressure. In Sea Level pressure display, hold “BARO” button for 3 seconds to enter setting. Press “▼”or “▲”to change setting, and press “MODE” button to confirm and move to next setting. The setting sequences are as follow: sea level pressure, toggle weather forecast icons. (Weather Forecast have four animation as below)

The weather forecast will start the first forecast at 6 hours later after the current weather status is entered. Note: (1) Barometric pressure and sea level pressure measurement in hpa, mmHG or inHG. When sea level pressure is changed, the altitude will adjust itself accordingly. (2) The range of sea leave pressure is 900mbar ~1100mbar.GB 5

means Slight Cloudy means Cloudy means Rainy means Sunny COMPASS The compass shows the bearing in degrees due North together with 16 cardinal points Press COMPASS button, the unit will enter Compass mode, Hold the unit horizontal. Point the 12 o’clock position of the unit in the direction you want to measure. As below graph shown, the direction you are measuring now is WSW 223°.The arrow “▲” always point to North. When the direction of compass is point to North (degree for -12.5 to +12.5), the direction icon outside will be shown. If no key press for 30 seconds, the unit will auto off the compass and return to temperature mode. Note:

1. The compass must be kept in a level position when in use. Taking a measurement while the unit is not

horizontal (in relation to the horizon) can result in large measurement error

2. Always take bearings in the open air, because it is easily affected by disturbing sources of magnetism.

Northwest NNW North- northwest (1) Compass Sensor Calibration The compass should be calibrated before use OR when the battery is replaced. In COMPASS mode, hold “COMPASS” button for 3 seconds to enter the compass sensor calibration mode, press COMPASS button to start the calibration Keep the unit in a level position or on top of a non-metallic table/desk, reference to the arrow showing in LCD, rotate the compass clockwise for one full rotation slowly.

When finished, LCD will display “OK” if the calibration is successful or display “Fail” if it is failed as below. (2) Set the Declination Angle The angle between magnetic north and the true north direction is called magnetic declination. The earth’s magnetic poles fluctuate over time, and it also varies from place to place. Finding the declination on the map or website, then set the declination on this unit to offset the difference between magnetic north and true north. Please note that if you fail to do this, the readings you get from the compass could be in error. In COMPASS mode, hold “COMPASS” button for 3 seconds to enter the compass sensor calibration mode, press “MODE” button to enter setting of declination angle. The angle would flash on the LCD. (for example, as below, “ 0° ” will flash on the LCD) Press “▼”or “▲”to change the angle value, range from -90°to 90°, and press “MODE” button to confirm and exit the setting. TEMPERATURE When compass mode is off, the top 2 row LCD display will provide the reading of temperature with unit of °C or °F, the range from -20°C to 60°C.GB 7

When Temperature is lower than -20°C, LCD display will show LL.L°C. When temperature is higher than 60°C, LCD display will show HH.H°C.

BACKLIGHT/ KEYPAD LOCK

Press LIGHT button to turn backlight on for 5 seconds. Press and hold LIGHT button for 3 seconds, keyboard will be locked and icon will be shown in LCD display. Hold the LIGHT button for 3 seconds to unlock the keyboard.

SWITCHING OFF THE METER

Remove the batteries.

Halten Press and hold the "▼"& "▲" buttons at the same time and use a needle to press the "reset" button once. As soon as the meter displays "VER", the "▼"& "▲" buttons can be released. The unit prepares to switch off. When the LCD displays "t tESt", shake the unit briefly within 30 seconds and the LCD will display "tPass" and "Pass". The unit displays "SLEEP" and is switched off, including LCD and all functions, when the countdown of 60 seconds reaches 0. After switching off, all recordings and settings are reset.

SWITCHING ON THE METER

Insert the batteries again.

Press and hold the "LIGHT" & "COMPASS" buttons to start the meter. MOVEMENT MODE When the device detects that you are moving or you press the "ALTI" button, you enter the movement mode. The change in air pressure is used to calculate the altimeter. QUIESCENT MODE If the device is stationary for 5 minutes and the “ALTI” button has not been pressed, you enter the sleep mode. The change in air pressure is used for weather forecasting.
