Reference Information (СПРАВОЧНЫЕ СВЕДЕНИЯ)
This section provides more detailed information and additional technical data about the watch's functions, including important notes and precautions.
Warning Indicators
Warning indicators appear on the screen when certain errors occur, stopping any measurement operations. Indicators appear at the top of the screen, and "--" replaces direction or temperature readings.
- In some cases, "ERR" or "BAT" messages may disappear after changing modes. You can continue using the watch until the message reappears.
- If the sensor malfunctions, contact an authorized CASIO dealer or service center as soon as possible.
Diagram shows "ERR" and "BAT" indicators.
Magnetic Field Indicator
This indicator appears when the digital compass cannot provide accurate readings, usually due to a strong magnetic field affecting the watch. Move the watch to a different location and try the procedure again. Refer to "Digital Compass Function Features" for error causes.
Battery Indicator (BAT)
This message indicates that the battery is critically low, preventing measurements. It appears when battery power drops below a certain level or when using the watch at very low temperatures (below -10°C).
- If "BAT" appears during use at low temperatures, it will disappear when the watch returns to normal temperatures, and normal operation will resume.
- If the battery is critically low at normal temperatures (indicated by "BAT"), replace the battery as soon as possible. Note that replacing the battery will erase all memory contents.
Sensor Malfunction Indicator (ERR)
This message indicates a malfunction in the sensor's electrical circuit. The "ERR" indicator flashes on the screen. The "ERR" message may also appear during digital compass calibration. In such cases, it does not indicate a sensor failure and will disappear after recalibrating the digital compass.
Auto Return Function
- After performing operations in any mode, you can return to Timekeeping Mode by pressing button 'D'.
- If no button is pressed for two to three minutes while digits are flashing in any setting mode, the watch automatically saves the entered values and exits the setting mode.
Viewing Date and Other Settings
Buttons 'B' and 'C' are used in various modes to scroll through data. Holding these buttons down usually scrolls through the data rapidly.
12-Hour or 24-Hour Time Display Format
The 12-hour or 24-hour format set in Timekeeping Mode is also used in Orientation, World Time, and Alarm modes.
Backlight Usage Precautions
- Prolonged use of the electro-luminescent panel can reduce its brightness.
- The backlight may not be visible in bright sunlight.
- The watch emits a sound when the digital screen is illuminated. This is due to slight vibrations from the electro-luminescent source, which is normal and not a sign of malfunction.
- The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
Auto-Backlight Mode Precautions
- Avoid wearing the watch on the inside of your wrist. This can cause the auto-backlight function to activate unintentionally, significantly reducing battery life.
- The backlight turns off automatically after approximately two seconds, even if you continue to hold the watch parallel to the ground.
- The backlight may not activate if your hand's position deviates from horizontal by more than 15°. Ensure your hand is held parallel to the ground.
- Static electricity or magnetic fields can interfere with the auto-backlight function. If it does not activate, return the watch to its original position (parallel to the ground), then tilt it towards you again. If this does not help, lower your arm along your body, then raise it again and follow the procedure described above.
- Under certain conditions, the backlight may activate up to 1 second after performing the above actions. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
Diagram shows hand positions: Parallel to ground, Raised more than 15°, Lowered more than 15°.
World Time Mode
- Second counts in World Time Mode are synchronized with Timekeeping Mode.
- The watch calculates time differences from GMT based on Coordinated Universal Time data.
- Average monthly temperatures displayed are based on data from the World Climate Table provided at the end of this manual, published by the Japan Meteorological Agency.
Features for Direction and Temperature Measurement
- The display of temperature and direction readings is interrupted during alarm or hourly chime signals. If this happens, repeat the display procedure.
- If the watch is not held horizontally during direction measurement, the results will be inaccurate.
- If data is already stored in a memory cell for orientation, new data will overwrite the old data.
Digital Compass Function Features
This watch has a built-in magnetic sensor for measuring azimuth, which is sensitive to the Earth's magnetic field. The North direction indicated by the watch is Magnetic North, which differs slightly from Geographic North. Magnetic North is located in northern Canada, while Magnetic South is in southern Australia. The difference between Magnetic North and Geographic North increases as you approach the magnetic poles. Some maps show Geographic North, so be aware of this difference when using maps.
Azimuth Values
Azimuth values displayed on the watch represent the angle measured clockwise from Magnetic North (0 degrees) to the direction indicated by the watch's 12 o'clock mark.
Diagram shows Magnetic North, the 12 o'clock mark, and the azimuth angle.
Influence of Measurement Location on Azimuth Accuracy
- Serious errors in readings can occur when using the digital compass near strong magnets. Avoid using it near: permanent magnets (magnetic necklaces, bracelets, etc.), large iron objects (iron doors, safes), high-voltage wires, antennas, or household appliances (TVs, computers, washing machines, refrigerators, etc.).
- Accurate direction measurements are not possible on trains, boats, or airplanes.
- Accurate measurements are also difficult indoors, especially in reinforced concrete structures, due to the magnetic fields generated by household appliances and metal frameworks.
Storage
- Compass measurement accuracy may decrease if the watch becomes magnetized. Avoid storing the watch near objects with strong magnetic fields, such as permanent magnets or household appliances.
- If you suspect your watch has become magnetized, perform one of the calibration procedures described in "Digital Compass Calibration."
Digital Compass Calibration
If you find the digital compass is giving inaccurate results, it needs calibration.
There are two calibration procedures: Two-Direction Calibration and North Calibration.
- Two-Direction Calibration: Use this if the compass is affected by strong magnetic fields interacting with the Earth's magnetic field. It's also used if the watch has become magnetized.
- North Calibration: This procedure involves simply pointing the watch to North (using another compass or method). This can be used to set the watch to Geographic North instead of Magnetic North.
Important:
- If performing both calibrations, do Two-Direction Calibration first, then North Calibration. Two-Direction Calibration resets any previous North Calibration settings.
- The accuracy of your digital compass depends on the precision of the Two-Direction Calibration. Perform it whenever you use the compass in a new location or environment, or if you suspect inaccurate readings.
How to Perform Two-Direction Calibration
- In Orientation Mode, press and hold button 'A' until "-1-" appears at the top of the display.
- The magnetic north indicator will flash, indicating readiness for the first direction calibration. Place the watch on a flat, horizontal surface and press button 'C' to perform the first calibration.
- After calibration is complete, "OK" will appear. The display will then show "-2-" and the magnetic north indicator will flash for the second direction calibration.
- Rotate the watch 180°.
- Press button 'C' again to perform the second calibration.
- After calibration is complete, "OK" will appear. The watch will automatically return to the Orientation Mode display.
Diagram shows "-1-" indicator at the top of the display.
Features of Two-Direction Compass Calibration:
- You can use any two opposite directions for calibration, but they must be 180° apart. Incorrect calibration will lead to inaccurate readings.
- Do not move the watch for one or two seconds after pressing 'C' during calibration. If you do, "ERR" will appear. If this happens, restart the calibration.
- "ERR" may also appear due to local interference. If you suspect this, move to a different location and restart the procedure.
- Perform calibration under the conditions you intend to use the digital compass. For example, if you plan to use it in an open field, calibrate it in an open field.
How to Perform North Calibration
- In Orientation Mode, press and hold button 'A' until "-1-" appears at the top of the display.
- Press button 'D' to start the North Calibration procedure.
- Place the watch on a flat, horizontal surface and align the 12 o'clock mark with North (use another compass to determine North).
- Press button 'C' to start the calibration.
- After calibration is complete, "OK" will appear. The watch will automatically return to the Orientation Mode display.
Diagram shows "-1-" indicator at the top of the display.
Diagram shows "0°" indicator appearing.
Questions and Answers
Q: Why are direction readings inaccurate?
A: Possible causes include:
- Improper two-direction calibration of the digital compass. Perform two-direction calibration, especially after battery replacement.
- Proximity to a strong magnetic field source (appliances, steel structures, high-voltage wires, etc.). Move the watch away from such objects and try again. Do not use the digital compass on trains or boats.
Q: Why does the digital compass give different results in the same location?
A: Magnetic fields from nearby high-voltage wires can affect readings. Move the watch away from these wires and try measuring again.
Q: "--" appears instead of a direction reading. What does this mean?
A: This indicates the watch is affected by a strong magnetic field. Move the watch to a different location and try measuring again.
Q: Why are digital compass results inaccurate indoors?
A: Appliances like TVs, computers, and speakers generate magnetic fields that interfere with the Earth's magnetic field. Move the watch away from the source or use it outdoors. It is particularly difficult to use the digital compass inside reinforced concrete structures. Avoid using it on trains or airplanes.
Q: What do the numbers on the circular scale represent?
A: The circular scale shows degrees, increasing counter-clockwise. These numbers help determine the angle between your direction and Magnetic North. For example, if the magnetic north indicator is near "90", it means the angle is 90° (the 12 o'clock mark points East).
