Use Above Sea Level; Troubleshooting - Vetus Meteoliner Anleitung

6 Use above sea level

At the time of dispatch, the baroscope is set for use at sea level.
However, if the intention is to use the unit on land, ensure that the
operating altitude is entered into the set-up mode (The atmos-
pheric pressure decreases by approx. 1 hPa for every 8.8 m
increase in altitude).
Above all, it is important to adjust the Baroscope to the relevant
operating altitude because the danger exists of the low pressure
phases going below the measuring limit sensor (950 hPa), which
causes the 'RANGE' indicator to appear.
The 'RANGE' indicator appears if the pressure is less than 950
hPa or greater than 1070 hPa.
Adjustment takes place in the set-up mode
• Enter the operating altitude in accordance with section 5.2.2 or
• Enter the current atmospheric pressure or correct the atmos-
pheric pressure for fine adjustment according to section 5.2.3
