EASURE

Entering Barometric Pressure

Because atmospheric pressure varies with both altitude and local weather con-
ditions, you must enter the current barometric pressure for your location. Wait
at least one hour after powering the Health EM (to allow the circuit a chance to
stabilize) before you enter barometric pressure. Once the barometric pressure is
set, the Health EM will calculate and display the correct barometric pressure
until the unit is moved to a different altitude or power is interrupted.

1. Determine the current barometric pressure.

Many TV and radio weather reports carry this information. Or you may call
your local airport control tower.

2. Press BAR to display current barometric pressure.

3. Press and hold down ENTER until the barometric pressure reading stops flashing.

At first, the entire barometric pressure reading will flash as a warning. After
four seconds the Health EM will revert to normal entry mode (i.e., only one
digit flashing).

4. Use ENTER to set the correct barometric pressure.

See “Using the Enter Key” on page 15 for instructions on using ENTER.

5. When finished setting the barometric pressure, press any function key to exit.

The Health EM saves the barometric pressure reading.
