    - to mount unit to wall or vertical surfice INSTALLING AND REPLACING OF BATTERY The EB833 operates with 2 (two) CR-2032 Lithium batteries that are included with all new units. During initial packaging, the batteries were insulated with a red tape so as to maximize the shelf life of the product.
  • Page 4: General Operation Of The Altimeter

    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.

    2. Simultaneously, press and hold the [+] and [-] to select between meters or feet. ABOUT THE ALTITUDE CHANGE GRAPH In Normal Altitude Display, the EB833 graphically display altitude levels at 2-hour time intervals for the past 12 hours. Each vertical bar on the altitude graph represents a 2-hour time period.

    –12 hours. ABOUT ALTITUDE CHANGE MEMORY The EB833 can monitors the change in altitude between two points. The unit displays the net vertical difference between points of a descent / ascent. Upon clearing the altitude memory, the current altitude reading is used as a base from which the unit starts recording changes.

    0 m. / ft. 8. Press [ALT] a last time and the unit returns to the Altitude Max (or Min) Memory Display. NOTE The EB833 will return to Altitude Max/Min Memory Display if no buttons are pressed for 1 minute. THE ALTITUDE ALARM The Altitude Alarm can be set to activate when a specific altitude is reached.
  • Page 9: Notes On Altimeter Functions

    If necessary, manually calibrate the altitude to maintain correct altitude readings. GENERAL OPERATION OF THE EB833(EN3) BAROMETER AND WEATHER FORECAST FUNCTIONS In Barometric Mode, by detecting changes in air pressure, this unit makes weather predictions. Illustrated weather forecasts symbols indicate forecasts as sunny, slightly cloudy, cloudy, and rainy.

    3. Simultaneously press again until the desired units have been selected. ABOUT THE PRESSURE CHANGE GRAPH The EB833 can display barometric pressure levels at intervals for the past 12 hours. Each vertical bar on the Pressure Change Graph represents a 2-hour time period.
  • Page 12: General Operation Of Time And Date Functions

    GENERAL OPERATION OF THE TIME AND DATE FUNCTIONS The EB833 has a Time and Date Mode. This mode also includes a count-up timer and daily wakeup alarm. The Time and Date Mode only affects the third line of the LCD.
