Setting The Auto Measurement Interval - Casio 5660 Operation Manual

Note
If you do not perform any operation for
●
about two minutes after pulling out the
crown, crown operations will
automatically become disabled. If that
happens, push the crown back in and
then pull it out again.
Measuring Altitude
●
1.
Use the contour lines on your map to
determine the altitude differential between
your current location and your destination.
2.
Take an altitude reading of your current
location.
Checking the Current Altitude
l
3.
Hold down (D) for at least two seconds to
set your current location's altitude as the
reference altitude.
This displays [DIFF RESET]
and then your current altitude.
The second hand (Altitude Differential
●
Indicator) will indicate the difference
between the reference altitude and the
current altitude reading. At this time the
second hand should indicate ±0 m (±0
feet).

4.
While comparing the difference between
the altitude you found on the map and the
altitude differential indicated by the
watch's second hand, advance towards
your destination.
When the altitude differential you found
●
on the map is the same as that indicated
by the second hand, it means you are
close to your destination.
Example: Altitude differential of -30 m (-98
feet) (-300 m (-984 feet))

You can toggle between the two

The second hand points to
●
the current altitude differential is
greater than the setting value, or
(under) if it is lower than the setting
value.
If either of these is indicated while
using the ±100 m (328 feet)
measurement range, change the
range setting to ±1000 m (3280 feet).
The second hand will move to 9 o'clock
●
if a reading is outside the allowable
altitude measurement range (-700 m to
10,000 m (-2,300 to 32,800 feet)), or if
a reading error occurs.

l
2.
Pull out the crown.
This displays the altitude for your current
location.
3.
Press (B).
This causes the auto measurement
interval to appear on the display.
4.
Rotate the crown to select [0'05] or [2'00]
as the auto measurement interval.
[0'05]: Readings taken every second for
the first three minutes, and then every five
seconds for about the next one hour.
[2'00]: Readings taken every second for
the first three minutes, and then every two
minutes for about the next 12 hours.
5.
Push the crown back in to complete the
setting operation.
