Altimeter Mode Functions
!
This mode has the following functions:
1) The different altitude readings: Current,
Minimum and Maximum Altitude.
2) The Accumulative Ascend and Descent
Altitude: The sums of the ascending/
descending distance for ski sport.
3) The Altitude Alarm: Alarm sounds when
the current altitude is higher than the
predefined level.
4) Altitude Calibration: The process to
calibrate the altitude reading.
5) Air Density, Relative Air Density and
D e n s i t y A l t i t u d e : T h e t e m p e r a t u r e ,
pressure and humidity effects on air
density.
6) Manual Data Log: The function to log the
current sensor readings.
WARNING !
!
The ADC estimates altitude by air pressure.
Hence, these altitude values may be
changed if air pressure changes. DO NOT
rely on the ADC for those activities that
demands commercial standard.
