Using the Site Configurations table found in the PMS section, set the ambient
pressure (mbar) in accordance with the local elevation. Refer to the Site Con-
figurations portion of the PMS section for additional information.
NOTE
It is imperative the ambient pressure setting is properly set. Otherwise,
erroneous Vt settings could result.
Changes in barometric pressure resulting from local weather conditions have
minimal to no affect on Vt readings. Therefore, it is not necessary to change
the ambient pressure setting with changing local weather conditions.
