7.2.2 What is the longest time I can set in the timer?
The maximum range of the countdown timer is 23 hours 59 minutes and 59 seconds.
7.3 BAROMETER
7.3.1 What is the little box on the top left of the display?
It is the barometric trend indicator that shows the general direction of weather changes. The display is based on
barometer measurements for the last 6 hours.
7.3.2 Does the Wristop Computer show future trends in weather
conditions?
No, the Wristop Computer continually accumulates data on barometric pressure existent within a 3 to 6 hour
window and displays general barometric trends in weather based on the accumulated data.
7.3.3 What does absolute pressure and relative pressure
mean?
Absolute pressure is the actual pressure in any location at any given time. Relative pressure on the other hand
equals the corresponding pressure at sea level for a certain altitude that you are at. For example, if you are at
an altitude of 1,000 m/3,300 ft the absolute pressure normally is around 900 mbar/26.60 inHg. The relative
pressure at sea level would then be around 1,013 mbar/29.90 inHg.
7.3.4 Is the Wristop Computer temperature compensated?
Yes, the Wristop Computer is temperature compensated, which means that for the temperature range specified
(-5 to +140°F/-20 to +60°C), the instrument will show accurate pressure. Within this range, the temperature has
no effect on the atmospheric pressure reading.
Temperature compensation does not, however, mean that the temperature reading isnt at all effected by body
heat. Body heat will affect the temperature reading, and to get the correct temperature reading of the environment
remember to take the Wristop Computer off your wrist and wait about 15 minutes for it to stabilize and show the
correct temperature of the surroundings.
