  • Page 6: Using The St-4000 Altimeter And Barometer

    USING THE ST-4000 ALTIMETER AND BAROMETER (ALTITUDE) The ST-4000 shows altitude below or above sea level from -4,000 feet to +30,000 feet in 5-foot increments. ALTIMETER AND BAROMETER DETAILS How the Altimeter Works The ST-4000 measures altitude by detecting differences in air pressure and displaying this information as altitude above sea level.
  • Page 7 Altitude Offset A weather change will produce a change in barometric pressure that causes an offset in the displayed altitude from the actual altitude. This offset is consistent at any altitude, so, if you start a hike with the altitude reading 50 feet too high, it will read 50 feet too high at any elevation on your hike.
  • Page 8 Effects of Atmospheric Pressure Changes A change in atmospheric pressure will make the displayed altitude different from the known altitude of a landmark. The ST-4000 can be adjusted so that it displays the same altitude as the landmark. Minor atmos- pheric pressure changes may cause the displayed altitude to vary from the actual altitude by 50 feet.
  • Page 9 Thermometer Accuracy The ST-4000 measures the ambient air temperature with a sensor inside its case. When the watch is worn against your skin, temperature readings will be affected significantly. Direct sunlight can also cause the ST-4000 to give high readings. For accurate readings, remove the watch from your wrist and place away from direct sunlight.
