seconds following any subsequent rotary knob movement, the numeric display will show the
present baro correction and the rotary knobs will adjust the baro--setting instead of Selected
Altitude. In this mode, the outer knob will change the baro--setting by 0.1 in Hg or 10 hPa. The
inner knob will change the baro--setting by .01 in Hg or 1 hPa.
