Module No. 5713
Checking Changes in Barometric Pressure Over Time
The watch can be configured to show a graph of pressure readings taken every two hours or every two minutes.
You can display a graph of barometric pressure readings for the past 20 hours or the past 20 minutes. The square () at the far right of the graph indicates the latest barometric pressure reading.
Changing the Measurement Interval of the Barometric Pressure Graph
You can select a measurement interval of two hours or two minutes for the barometric pressure graph.
-
Enter the Barometer Mode.
-
Loosen the crown and then pull it out.
-
Press (B).
-
Rotate the crown to select [0:02] or [2:00] as the measurement interval.
-
Push the crown back in and then lock it.
This displays the current barometric pressure.
This causes the current measurement interval to appear on the display.
[0:02]: When the measurement interval of the barometric pressure graph is two minutes, measurements are taken every five seconds.
[2:00]: When the measurement interval of the barometric pressure graph is two hours, measurements are taken every two minutes.
Note
If you switch to the two-minute measurement interval graph, the watch will automatically return to the two-hour measurement interval graph after 24 hours.
Note that the graph will not be displayed immediately after it is switched to a two-minute measurement interval graph.
Predicting Upcoming Weather
A trend like this: |
Means this: |
---|---|
Rising barometric pressure, which indicates that upcoming weather probably will be fair. |
|
Falling barometric pressure, which indicates that upcoming weather probably will be bad. |
Note
Large changes in barometric pressure and/or temperature can cause past data readings to be plotted outside of the visible area of the graph. Though plots are not visible, the data is still maintained in watch memory.
The barometric pressure graph is not displayed while Barometric Pressure Change Indications are displayed.
