(measuring the height from the ground to the roof of a building)

A Ground
B Roof
C Height of building
(relative altitude)
Note
When [Adjust] is set to [GPS], the altitude prior to and after recording
can vary according to the timing at which GPS data is received.
Adjustment is not possible when the measured value exceeds the display range. It will display
[----].
With the displaying of the relative altitude, it may display with negative numbers even if it is
higher than sea level depending on the value adjusted with [Adjust] in [Altimeter].
After adjustment, errors of a few metres may still occur. For information on preserving the
adjusted accuracy, read
About the measured altitude and atmospheric pressure (P128).
