Description of function
This function uses the chronograph and a chosen distance to calculate either the average or instantaneous speed of a moving object such as a boat, a car, a bike or
a man.
Average speed
In order to calculate your average speed over a chosen distance, simply insert the distance in the watch using the pushers and use the chronograph to time your run.
Instantaneous speed
The speed function of your Sailing-Touch can also let you know the instantaneous speed of a moving object, e.g.: a boat. Enter the length of the boat in the watch
and time the boat when passing a fixed object. For example: start the chronograph when the prow of the boat reaches a buoy and then stop the chronograph when
the stern reaches the buoy.
Note 1
The distance of the run or the length can even be entered in the watch after timing.
Note 2
Measurement units can be changed in the options menu. See page 5 of this manual.
Note 3
“---kmh” in the display means that the chronograph was not activated.
