| vector problems I got a vector as a christmas present and so far have had nothing but trouble with it. The temperature will be showing 70° even though I know it is about 45° outside. I even left if off my wrist for about 20min. Also when I set the sea level pressure (I used 29.90inHg) it shows my atlitude at -50ft and I know that is way off. Then when I set my reference altitude (set to 300ft) the sea level pressure changes. I had my watch sitting on a desk today and the altitude rose to 380ft, but the watch didn't move. I understand that the pressure affects altitude and vice versa, but why do the ref altitude and sea pressure change. I thought those were user set as the two reference points. I've gone over the instructions and checked messages boards online for possible fixes. Did I just get lucky and get a malfunctioning watch or is the vector not that accurate? Can anyone help me!? Thanks in advance Bart |
