• The accuracy is guaranteed when temperature is constant after altitude calibration.
• The assured accuracy is that of altitude difference from the altitude calibration point, not
accuracy of measured altitude to actual one.
Example: Error range at 700 m height when altitude was calibrated at a point of 500 m height
(700 – 500) x 2% + 15 =19 Thus the assured accuracy is ±19 m and error range is 681 m to
719 m.

Lower than 6 000 m: 2.5 m
