Use of the instrument

Using the ALT57 is very simple: rotate the knob to adjust

the altitude (in the same way you do in a mechanical

altimeters);

it's also possible to adjust directly the

pressure reference instead of the altitude: click on the

knob and the display will show

the

actual

pressure

reference. Rotate the knob to adjust the value, then press

again the knob or wait two seconds to return to the

altitude display.

NOTE: if the first digit of the display is flashing add 10000

to the value displayed (it only happens when the unit of

measure are in Feet and the actual altitude exceeds 9999

feets).

CAUTION: Before using the altimeter for the first time you

must set-up the unit of measure for the altitude and for the

pressure (read chapter 4.1 "Instrument setup"); the

default settings are Feet (altitude) and mBAR (pressure).
