2. Altitude Mode
2.1 Absolute altitude
As the absolute altitude is calculated from the air pres-
sure the change of air pressure would affect the altitude
reading. To achieve a more accurate reading, it needs to
be calibrated as pressure may change gradually.
Important note: In order to set the correct absolute
altitude reading, the altitude must be known. That
information can be found by utilizing a topographical
map identifying the current location with the associated
altitude marked. The user can then proceed and follow
the instructions to calibrate the absolute altitude.
