First, if you mean will Wristop Computer show accurate altitude information when ascending back to 8,000 ft
after having descended to 3,000 ft from 5,000 ft, the answer is yes if the barometric pressure hasn’t been
affected by weather changes. Since the altitude is shown based on the atmospheric pressure reading it will be
affected by pressure changes. But if the conditions are the same, and the reference altitude is set, the unit will
show quite accurate readings.
Second, if what you mean is how the Wristop Computer calculates the information shown in the logbook, this is
what it does: for the total ascent during the log (the logbook recording has been activated by the user when
starting out) it calculates the ascent from 3,000 ft to 8,000 ft, i.e. total ascent has been 5,000ft. For the descent
it calculates the descent from 5,000 ft to 3,000 ft, i.e. total descent 2,000 ft.
Third, if thinking about the difference measurement function and how this is affected by the example situation,
the Wristop Computer will show you the absolute difference between 5,000 ft and 8,000 ft (beginning and end).
The fact that you’ve been down to 3,000 ft in-between does not have an impact on the absolute vertical altitude
difference between starting point and finish.
Last, the automatic 24-hour memory will show this information in the following way: Say you are starting out at
5,000 ft at noon, and then it takes you 2 hours to descend to 3,000 ft, and another five hours to reach 8,000 ft.
The scrollable displays in the 24-hour memory shows you the altitude 5,000 ft at 12:00 am, e.g. 4,000 ft at 1
p.m., 3,000 ft at 2 p.m., e.g. 4,000 ft at 3 p.m., 5,000 ft at 4 p.m., 6,000 ft at 5 p.m., 7,000 ft at 6 p.m. and then
8,000 ft at 7 p.m.
These are the different cases in which the example situation will affect the readings of the Wristop Computer.
Most important to remember is to ALWAYS set the known reference altitude into the Wristop Computer. This is
the only way to get accurate altitude readings.
The resolution of the vertical ascent/descent rate is 1 m/1 ft whereas the resolution of the altitude display is 5 m/
10 ft, which means that the ascent/descent rate can show movement even though you remain at the same
altitude. This is caused by changes in pressure or even vertical movement within the 5 m/10 ft resolution range.
