Tide/Moon Data

In the Tide/Moon Data Mode, you can see the current tide and the current date's
Moon phase for your Home City. You can specify a date and view tide and Moon data
for that date.
See "Moon Phase Indicator" (page E-50) for information about the Moon phase
indicator and "Tide Graph" (page E-54) for information about the tide graph.
All of the operations in this section are performed in the Tide/Moon Data Mode
(page E-10).
Note
It takes about two seconds to calculate tide graph data. You will not be able to
display a setting screen while data calculation is in progress.
Moon age is calculated to an accuracy of ±1 day.

another date to view data.
If the Moon data is not correct, check your Timekeeping Mode settings and correct
them if necessary.
If the Moon phase indicator shows a phase that is a mirror image of the actual moon
phase in your area, you can use the procedure under "Reversing the Displayed
Moon Phase" (page E-23) to change it.
