You can also turn the Electronic Compass on or off by holding down the PAGE Button until the message appears on screen. Altimeter Setting Turns the Automatic Calibration for the Altimeter on or off. Selecting 'Auto Cal On' for the Altimeter allows the unit to provide a fairly accurate reading within minutes of obtaining a 3D fix without requiring you to remain stationary. The accuracy improves over time as the barometric pressure is compared to GPS information. Battery Setting The battery type choice can affect battery life; choose between 'ALKALINE' and 'NIMH (Nickel Metal Hydride)' depending upon the type you are using. The battery life for rechargeable NiMH will be significantly lower than Alkaline. For maximum battery life, it is recommended to use Alkaline batteries.
