Possible real life situation: Using the BAROMETER profile
You’re still hiking and you’re getting tired. You decide to take a
nap and you set up your tent. Since your altitude will stay the same
for a while, you activate the BAROMETER profile. When you wake
up, you will be able to check changes in sea level air pressure with
an eye on the weather.
7.6.1 Recording logs
When you are recording logs in the ALTIMETER profile, you can
switch to the BAROMETER profile when you for example take a
break during a hike.
The log recorder will continue recording the log, but it will not
record changes in air pressure. When the barometer profile is
activated, the device assumes you are not moving in altitude, and it
will therefore not record any altitude changes. The altitude log will
therefore be flat during this period. For information on using the
log recorder, see
7.5.2 Recording logs
.
You can start, stop and reset the altitude measurement while in the
BAROMETER
profile.

profile
You are recording your altitude changes during a hike and decide
to take a longer break. You switch to the BAROMETER profile. Since
the altitude recording continues but no altitude changes are
