a Barometric pressure readings are standardized to sea level. The range displayed is for the standardized value.
The console can be set to standardize readings within an elevation range of -1500 to +12,500 (-460 to + 3810
m); however, the console screen limits selection and display of lower elevation to -999’ when using feet as
elevation unit.
