Calibrating the Altimeter

You must calibrate the altimeter to ensure that the

altimeter displays the most accurate elevation data. To

calibrate the altimeter, you must know the elevation or

barometric pressure at your current location. You can get

elevation information from a map or other reliable source.

You can learn the current barometric pressure (pressure

calibrated to sea level) by listening to NOAA weather

forecasts or a reliable local weather forecast on your

Rino 130.

To calibrate the altimeter manually:

1. Use the

Thumb Stick to access the Option Menu.

2. Highlight the

Calibrate Altimeter option and press

the

Thumb Stick to display the Calibration Page.

3. At the message asking “Do You Know The Correct

Elevation?” highlight the on-screen

Yes button and

press the

Thumb Stick In to enter your elevation.

When finished, highlight

OK and press it In to

return to the Altimeter Page.

Or At the message asking “Do You Know The Correct

pressure. When finished, select

the Altimeter Page.
