GENERAL OPERATION OF THE ALTIMETER

In Altimeter Mode, by detecting changes in air pressure,
the EB833 determines a given altitude level.
Subsequently, the unit can be set to show changes in
altitude and maximum / minimum elevations. It can store
altitude-related data and display elevation trends over a
12-hour period of time. The unit can also display the net
total of accumulative ascents.
A small icon indicates that the unit is in Altimeter
Mode and that the displays are altitude related.
To view display sequences in Altimeter Mode:
1. Press [ALT] to move between various Altimeter
Mode displays.
