INFORMATION IN ACTION Know your training - With advanced timing functions of the stopwatch you are able to record lap and split times of your activity. - Chronometer memory records accurate altitude profile with 10 or 60 seconds interval. This is ideal for fast sports. - Adjustable alarm works as an interval reminder. - Accurate altimeter (1 meter resolution) makes it possible to measure the vertical performance when jogging, hiking, biking, wandering, climbing etc. Know your environment - Knowing important factors of the surrounding terrain, such as altitude, ascent/descent rate, compass bearing, weather trends, barometric pressure, and degree of slope offer new ways to get more out of the experience. Remember safety - Carrying a compass along is more than practical: it gives safety on a hike and guides you back when jogging in an unknown place or just touring in a foreign city. - Barometer with a 2-day memory function and with a barometric graph helps you to forecast weather changes. - The storm alarm warns you when barometric pressure is falling quickly. - Programmable ascent alarm helps to keep safe climbing speed on the mountains.
