HOW THE OUTBREAKER WORKS

The OUTBREAKER sports watch comes equipped with a barometer (measuring altitude, barometric pressure, and weather conditions), a weather forecast display, a thermom- eter, a heart rate monitor (RS109/RP 109 only), and a bicycle computer to display information when cycling (RP109 only).

HOW THE ALTIMETER, THERMOMETER, AND BAROMETER WORK

The patented baro-compensation technology used in this watch allows it to distinguish between barometric pressure change and altitude pressure change. This means it can detect baro- metric pressure (localized weather conditions) as distinct from changes in altitude pressure, and gives more accurate read- ings than most average devices (which frequently rely on manual deactivation before initiating a new forecast).

A MULTI-SYSTEM FACILITY

The product is designed for use during many kinds of activity. It can display and store a range of information of interest to the casual and more serious sports or exercise enthusiast. The watch includes the following Modes: CLOCK, ALTIMETER, CARDIO (Heart Rate) (RS109/RP109 only), BIKE (RP109 only), and PC (docking station and CDROM are optional for the RA109 and RS109, and are not supplied). It is equipped with a multi-system facility that allows you to combine information according to your preference, such as altitude and time, altitude and heart rate, or bike speed and altitude, etc. You may also

use the stopwatch or timer (countdown) facility in combination with other functions, and both will continue to run in the background while you use other features of the watch.

The heart-rate monitor and altimeter features of the OUTBREAKER watch include customized settings. Maximum and minimum heart rate limits can be set for use during exercise, and the altimeter can be set to register ascending and descending limits. In both cases a short beep signifies either limit has been exceeded. The watch also has a clock, calendar, and pressure reading apparatus, all of which need to be set according to the current date and location.

TOUR MODE

The watch features a TOUR Mode in which you can record all data from a single trip, or workout, and then download this information onto your PC for storage and viewing. The watch can recall 99 different single tours, trips or workouts.

NOTE The docking station and CD-ROM are required (op- tional for the RA109 and RS109, but not supplied) to download information from TOUR Mode.

PC SOFTWARE KIT (RP109 ONLY)

A docking station is provided with the watch for connecting to a computer, along with a CD-ROM for installing the necessary software onto your computer. You can also use the software to change some of the watch settings.

NOTE The RZ910 PC Kit can be purchased separately for the RA109 and RS109.
