Suunto Vector HR [43/61] Chapter 5 barometer mode

CHaPTeR 5 baRoMeTeR Mode

The Suunto Wristop Computer Barometer function provides the user with:

• an adjustable unit of measure mbar or inHg; mbar range 300 to 1,100 mbar, inHg range 8.90 to 32.40;

• an adjustable sea level pressure function ranging from 27.25-30.80 inHg / 921-1,080 mbar

• a resolution of 1 mbar or 0.05 inHg;

• a one hour interval measuring to estimate barometric trend;

• difference measurement function allows zeroing of the barometer for following e.g. overnight changes in barometric pressure and

temperature;

• an automatic 4-day memory of atmospheric pressure for the last 6 hours in 1-hour intervals, thereafter, in 6-hour intervals;

• temperature compensation (temperature does not effect the pressure within the specied temperature range)

• a temperature range from -20° to 60°C or -5° to 140°F; and

• a temperature resolution of 1° C or F.

To view and use the Barometer function:

Check the Mode Indicator arrow. If the mode arrow is not on BARO, PRESS the [Mode] button until the arrow is directly below

BARO.

In the Barometer mode (Fig. 45):

• Field 1 displays the current temperature.

• Field 2 displays the current absolute atmospheric pressure.

• Field 3 displays the current time.

• The Outer Circumference graphically displays the atmospheric pressure over 100 millibars or 1 inHg where one complete circle is

equivalent to 100 mbar/1 inHg, depending on the unit of measure chosen.
