Altimeter
The watch displays altitude values based on air pressure readings taken by a built-in
pressure sensor.
How the Altimeter Measures Altitude
The altimeter can measure altitude based on its own preset values (initial default
method) or using a reference altitude specifi ed by you.
When you measure altitude based on preset values
Data produced by the watch’s barometric pressure sensor is converted to approximate
altitude based on ISA (International Standard Atmosphere) conversion values stored
in watch memory.
When you measure altitude using a reference altitude specifi ed by you
After you specify a reference altitude, the watch uses
that value to convert barometric pressure readings to
altitude (page E-34).

When mountain climbing, you can specify a reference altitude value in accordance
with a marker along the way or altitude information from a map. After that, the
altitude readings produced by the watch will be more accurate than they would
without a reference altitude value.
To take an altimeter reading
1. Make sure the watch is in the Timekeeping Mode.
2. Press
D
to start Altimeter measurement.
ALTI will appear on the display, indicating that
Altimeter measurement is in progress. The fi rst
reading will appear on the display after about four
or fi ve seconds.
The current altitude value is displayed in units of 5
meters (20 feet).
After the fi rst reading is obtained, the watch continues
to take altimeter readings automatically every fi ve
seconds for the fi rst three minutes, and then every
two minutes after that.

If you leave the watch in the Altimeter Mode, it will update the displayed altitude
value regularly.
Temperature is measured in the Barometer/Thermometer Mode and in the
Altimeter Mode. For details about temperature readings, see "Temperature"
(page E-24).
3. After you are fi nished using the Altimeter, press
C
to return to the Timekeeping
Mode and stop auto measurement.
The watch will return to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if you do not perform
any operation for about 10 hours after entering the Altimeter Mode.
Note
The measurement range for altitude is –700 to 10,000 meters (–2,300 to 32,800
feet).
The displayed altitude value changes to
- - - -
if an altitude reading falls outside the
measurement range. An altitude value will reappear as soon as the altitude reading
is within the allowable range.
E-33
Normally, displayed altitude values are based on the watch’s preset conversion
values. You also can specify a reference altitude value, if you want. See “Specifying
a Reference Altitude Value” below.
You can change the unit for displayed altitude values to either meters (m) or feet (ft).
See “To specify temperature, barometric pressure, and altitude units” (page E-39).
Specifying a Reference Altitude Value
The altitude readings produced by this watch are subject to error caused by changes
in air pressure. Because of this, we recommend that you update the reference altitude
value whenever accurate altitude information is available during your climb. After you
specify a reference altitude value, the watch adjusts its air-pressure-to-altitude
conversion calculation accordingly.
E-34
To specify a reference altitude value
1. In the Altimeter Mode, hold down
A
until the current
reference altitude value starts to fl ash. This is the
setting screen.
Before the reference altitude value starts to fl ash,
the message SET Hold will appear on the display.
Keep
A
depressed until SET Hold disappears.
2. Press
D
(+) or
B
(–) to change the current reference
altitude value by 5 meters (or 20 feet).
Specify a reference altitude value based on accurate
altitude information about your current location from
a map, etc.
You can set the reference altitude value within the range of –10,000 to 10,000
meters (–32,800 to 32,800 feet).
Pressing
B
and
D
at the same time returns to OFF (no reference altitude value), so
the watch performs air pressure to altitude conversions based on preset data only.
3. Press
A
to exit the setting screen.
E-35
How does the altimeter work?
Generally, air pressure and temperature decrease as altitude increases. This watch
bases its altitude measurements on International Standard Atmosphere (ISA) values
stipulated by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). These values defi ne
relationships between altitude, air pressure, and temperature.

Note that the following conditions will prevent you from obtaining accurate readings:
When air pressure changes because of changes in the weather
Extreme temperature changes
When the watch itself is subjected to strong impact
E-37
There are two standard methods of expressing altitude: Absolute altitude and relative
altitude. Absolute altitude expresses an absolute height above sea level. Relative
altitude expresses the difference between the height of two different places.
Height of building 130 m
(relative altitude)
Rooftop at an altitude of
230 m above sea level
(absolute altitude)

Altimeter Precautions
This watch estimates altitude based on air pressure. This means that altitude
readings for the same location may vary if air pressure changes.
The semiconductor pressure sensor used by the watch for altitude measurements
is also affected by temperature. When taking altitude measurements, do not subject
the watch to temperature changes.
Do not rely upon this watch for altitude measurements or perform button operations
while sky diving, hang gliding, or paragliding, while riding a gyrocopter, glider, or
any other aircraft, or while engaging in any other activity where there is the chance
of sudden altitude changes.
Do not use this watch for measuring altitude in applications that demand
professional or industrial level precision.
Remember that the air inside of a commercial aircraft is pressurized. Because of
this, the readings produced by this watch will not match the altitude readings
announced or indicated the fl ight crew.

Specifying Temperature, Barometric Pressure, and Altitude Units
Use the procedure below to specify the temperature, barometric pressure, and altitude
units to be used in the Barometer/Thermometer Mode and the Altimeter Mode.
Important!
When
TYO
(Tokyo) is selected as the Home City, the
altitude unit is set automatically to meters (
m
), the
barometric pressure unit to hectopascals (
hPa
), and the
temperature unit to Celsius (
°C
). These settings cannot
be changed.
To specify temperature, barometric pressure, and
altitude units
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down
A
until the
currently selected city code starts to fl ash. This is the
city code setting screen.
