Altimeter (special features)

Height gain

Depending on the model, up to 40 data sets can be stored in the altimeter's data memory. Each of these data sets consists of an altitude, as well as the date and time. In addition to the individual altitudes, the following data is also stored in the memory:

  • Maximum altitude (MAX): stores the highest point within a measurement (E) 650 m
  • Minimum altitude (MIN): stores the lowest point within a measurement (F) 20 m
  • Total ascent (ASC): stores the total altitude of an ascent (A+C) 280 m + 400 m = 680 m
  • Total descent (DSC): stores the total altitude of a descent (B+D) 50 m + 450 m = 500 m
  • Total memory: stores the lowest, the highest and the accumulated total ascent and descent from all stored measurements
