Recording Altitude Readings; Setting The Auto Measurement Interval; Specifying The Altitude Measurement Unit - Casio 5470 Operation Manual

Note
The second hand will point to r
●
(over) if the current altitude
differential is greater than the setting
value, or s (under) if it is lower than
the setting value.
If either of these is indicated while
using the ±100 m (328 feet)
measurement range, change the
range setting to ±1000 m (3280
feet).
The second hand will move to 9
●
o'clock if a reading is outside the
allowable altitude measurement
range (-700 m to 10,000 m (-2,300 to
32,800 feet)), or if a reading error
occurs.
Setting the Auto
Measurement Interval
You can select an auto measurement interval
of either five seconds or two minutes.
1.
Pull out the crown.
2.
Press (B).
3.
Rotate the crown to select [0'05] or [2'00]
as the auto measurement interval.
[0'05]: Readings taken every second for
the first three minutes, and then every five
seconds for about the next one hour.
[2'00]: Readings taken every second for
the first three minutes, and then every two
minutes for about the next 12 hours.
4.
Push the crown back in to complete the
setting operation.

Recording Altitude Readings

Use the procedure below to record altitude
measurements manually. Auto
measurements are also recorded
automatically.
Use the Altitude Record Recall Mode to
●
view or delete records.
Viewing Altitude Records
l
Recording Altitude Data Manually
●
Hold down the (A) button for about two
seconds, until [REC] stops flashing on the
display. This records the current altitude
reading, along with the recording date and
time.
There is enough memory to hold up to 30
●
altitude records.
Recording altitude data when there are
●
already 30 records in memory automatically
deletes the oldest record to make room for
the new one.
Auto Altitude Data Recording
●
The altitude data described below is recorded
automatically while the watch is in the Altitude
Mode. One record each is maintained in
memory for each of these items.

Altimeter Mode.
Specifying the Altitude
Measurement Unit
You can select either meters (m) or feet (ft) as
the Altitude Mode display unit.
Important!
When Tokyo (TYO) is set as the
●
Home City, the altitude unit is fixed
as meters (m) and cannot be
changed.
