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.

The ST-4000 works the same way an aircraft altimeter does.

Moving Barometer

There are two kinds of barometers: fixed location and moving location.

Moving barometers are designed to be used at varying elevations.

The ST-4000, like an aircraft altimeter, contains a moving location barome-

ter. Its reading does not move until you set it by adjusting the

altitude in the altimeter display.

- 5 -

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.

You remove the offset by adjusting the altitude.

When to Adjust Altitude

Adjust the altitude when you want precise altitude readings, such as before

hiking or climbing, or when you want to update the Sea Level Barometer.

Adjust at a known altitude such as at the sea side, a marked summit or pass,

or a location with an altitude reference on a map such as a lake. Home or

office make convenient adjustment points after learning their elevations

from a topographic map.

Adjust once a day when hiking, climbing, or when following weather patterns.

You can also adjust altitude in the barometer. Adjust display by entering a

current, local barometer reading from a weather report or airport weather

service. When you enter the barometer reading, the altitude is also adjusted

in the altimeter.

- 6 -

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. With the arrival or departure of a weather front,

displayed altitude can change 100 to 200 feet, and a storm can cause a

change of more than 200 feet. Wind, rain, snow, and humidity do not affect

altimeter readings.

Barometer-Altimeter Synchronization

Synchronization (the relation between altitude and sea level barometer) is

set at the factory. To ensure barometer accuracy you can check it after a

year or two and correct minor drift if necessary. You must know your current

altitude and must get the current sea level barometer from a local airport or

weather broadcast to make this adjustment.

You can also synchronize the thermometer if it reads consistently high or

low over a range of temperatures.

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.

Display

The Altimeter and Thermometer revert to the Clock 10 minutes after the last

time a button is pressed.

NOTE: The analog and digital movements of this watch

operate independently. Please set each individually to

ensure they are kept in sync.
