Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if…

…there are no reactions to any buttons?

-You need to reset the wrist unit. Resetting only clears the date and daily alarms, not the recorded files. The altimeter and barometer calibration values return to their default values (standard sea level pressure 1013 hPa/29.90 inHg). To reset the wrist unit, press the UP, DOWN, LIGHT and STOP buttons down simultaneously. If you do not press any buttons for approx. one minute after resetting the wrist unit, the display goes to TIME mode.

...the animation on the display is not moving although I am?

-First, make sure you are recording, see 'Start Action Recording'. Then move effectively and fast enough for a minimum of 30 seconds for the zone pointer (animation) to move. Too slow or too careful (e.g. tiptoeing) movement may also stop the animation, as such movement is not considered beneficial enough.

…the altitude reading changes even though I stay at the same altitude?

-Altitude measurement is based on barometric pressure. Changes in altitude or weather cause changes in the pressure. For example, if you stay at the same altitude but the weather and pressure change, the altimeter interprets the pressure change as a change in altitude.
