www.t issot .ch 154_EN11/21

T-TOUCH SOLAR E84

The T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 program takes account of atmospheric
pressure vari-

ation over the last 6 hours to calculate the trend to indicate.
Furthermore, the

pressure variation caused by a rapid change in altitude is
detected by the watchand compensated for automatically. So it only
has a minimal impact on the

barometric trend.

The T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 digital display

indicates the absolute and relative atmos-

pheric pressure values in hectoPascals [hPa].

Absolute atmospheric pressure is the actual

pressure at the time and place of measure-

ment, and cannot be altered. Relative pres-

sure is a value relative to sea level, based

on local absolute atmospheric pressure.

Barometers and weather charts show relative pressure values. The
relative

pressure value depends on the climate zone set, and can be
preset on thewatch. The relative pressure presetting is in line
with the altitude.

Characteristics of function

Measurement range: absolute pressure: 300 hPa to 1100 hPa

  relative pressure: 950 hPa to 1100 hPa

Accuracy: absolute pressure: ± 3 hPa

  relative pressure: varies with altimeter

Resolution: 1 hPa

Unit conversion: 1 hectoPascal [hPa] = 1 millibar [mb]

METEO (WEATHER) > GLOSSARY

Description of function

In weather mode, the hands are superimposed

to indicate the weather trend.

Explanations

Weather changes are related to variations in

atmospheric pressure. When atmospheric pres-

sure increases the sky clears. The area is then

referred to as a «high pressure» area or «anticy-

clone» (A). When atmospheric pressure decreas-

es the sky clouds over. The area is then referred

to as a «low pressure» area or «depression» (D).

The T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 watch measures these

pressure variations and indicates the weather

trend with the hands, which can adopt the following 7 positions
according to

the weather developments:- 6’: Big pressure drop, rapid
deterioration

— 4’: Moderate pressure drop, probable

deterioration

— 2’: Small pressure drop, probable slight

deterioration

12 o’clock: No notable weather change

+ 2’: Slight pressure rise, probable slight

improvement

+ 4’: Moderate pressure rise, probable

improvement

+ 6’: Big pressure rise, rapid improvement

We advise you to stop the altitude difference meter during rest

Note 1: «Presetting» an altimeter means settingit to the actual
altitude of a known point (see pre-setting procedure on page 11).
The actual altitudevalues are indicated on various media:
signposts,

contour lines and spot heights on maps. The al-titude
«presetting» is in line with relative atmos-pheric pressure.

Note 2: In an airliner, since the cabin is pressurised, your
altimeter will notindicate an accurate altitude.

Note 3: To optimise the accuracy of your altimeter, you are
advised to selectthe climate zone, see page 9.

Characteristics of function

Description of function

In altimeter mode, your T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 be-comes a barometric
altimeter, displaying the alti-tude relative to mean sea level.

Explanations

This is a barometric instrument, which calculates

the altitude as a function of absolute pressure(atmospheric). As
the altitude rises, pressuredrops, and vice versa. So the altimeter
measuresthe difference between absolute pressure (atmos-pheric) and
relative pressure (relative to sea level)

to display the altitude. Your T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 is temperature
compensated,and you can adjust your geographic location (hemisphere
and climate zone).The altitude displayed is therefore corrected
automatically.This makes it the ideal instrument for measuring
vertical movement with thealtitude difference function (e.g. in
mountain trekking). The altitude differencemeter indicates the
elapsed time, cumulative altitude gains and losses andmean vertical
speeds of ascent and descent.

NB!

Due to the use of pressure to calculate altitude, the altimeter

changes. It is not uncommonto observe altitude differences of 100 m
in a night. So the value displayed

may vary without the altitude having actually changed.

Compass

In compass mode, your T-TOUCH SOLAR E84

indicates the True North Pole, factoring in

magnetic declination.

Compass explanations

The vertical lines (meridians) on the Earth converge at the True
North Pole

(Ng), indicating its direction. The hand of a conventional
compass indicates

the direction of the Magnetic North Pole (Nm).

The angle (α) between these two directions

Ng and Nm is known as magnetic declination.

The magnetic declination value depends on your

location on Earth. Furthermore, the Magnetic

North Pole is constantly moving. So the magnet-

ic declination value also depends on the date.

If the correct magnetic declination value (for

the location and date) is set (see the setting

procedure on page 15), the minute hand of your

T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 will point to True North

(Ng). If the magnetic declination is set to 0, your T-TOUCH
SOLAR E84 will

point to Magnetic north (Nm). The magnetic declination values
and dates are

indicated on topographic charts, or can be found using special
software avail-

able on the Internet.

For the whole world:http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/

Azimuth

In azimuth mode, your T-TOUCH indicates the azimuth heading you
should take.

Azimuth explanations

The azimuth is the horizontal angle

between the direction of an object

and True North. The azimuth ismeasured from north in degrees

from 0° to 359° (e.g.: East = 90°).

In azimuth mode, the T-TOUCH

emits a beep and visual signal

when the 6-12 o’clock axis of the

watch is aligned with the azimuth

heading set.

12 o’clock represents the azimuth heading relative to True
North.

Note 1

For a correct indication of North, it is extremely important to
hold the watch as

level as possible.

Note 2

The compass function, like any other compass,

should not be used near a metal or magnetic

object. In case of doubt, you can recalibrate your

compass.

REGATTA > GLOSSARY

Regatta

A regatta is a race between two or more boats, generally sailing
boats.

It comprises several stages, and begins with a «start procedure»
which can last up to 10 minutes, during whichall the boats
competing in the regatta must remain behind the start line. As the
boats are constantly movingbehind this line, the goal is to remain
as close as possible to it when the countdown ends, in order to
gainthe advantage from the off. Throughout the «start procedure»,
cannon shots tell the regatta competitors thetime remaining before
the start signal. To maximise your chances of a flying start, you
can synchronise yourT-TOUCH SOLAR E84 with the cannon
shots.

Once the countdown has finished, the race starts and all the
competitors must follow a course marked bybuoys around which they
must navigate on their way to the finish line. The boat finishing
the course first winsthe regatta.

Description of function

Your T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 is equipped with a special countdown
for regattas, which can be set to a value ofbetween 0 and 10
minutes, and used during the regatta «start procedure». The watch
emits a triple beep at theend of every minute, a double beep every
ten seconds during the last minute, a single beep for each of the
last9 seconds, and finally a quintuple beep announcing the start of
the race when the countdown reaches zero.

Furthermore, during the countdown you can synchronise your
T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 with the cannon shots usingthe «-»
push-button. It is synchronised to the nearest whole minute.

When the countdown reaches zero, it automatically switches to a
race chronograph, indicating the days, hours,minutes and seconds
elapsed on the LCD screen.

Fast continuous setting

When setting the watch, you can press and hold the push-button
to switch tofast continuous setting mode, in which the display
moves at a faster rate thanin non-continuous or normal speed
setting mode. To exit fast continuous settingmode, you need to
release the push-buttons for 1 second to continue in normalspeed
setting mode.

SENSOR FAULT

T-TOUCH SOLAR E84

The T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 program takes account of atmospheric
pressure vari-

ation over the last 6 hours to calculate the trend to indicate.
Furthermore, the

pressure variation caused by a rapid change in altitude is
detected by the watchand compensated for automatically. So it only
has a minimal impact on the

barometric trend.

The T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 digital display

indicates the absolute and relative atmos-

pheric pressure values in hectoPascals [hPa].

Absolute atmospheric pressure is the actual

pressure at the time and place of measure-

ment, and cannot be altered. Relative pres-

sure is a value relative to sea level, based

on local absolute atmospheric pressure.

Barometers and weather charts show relative pressure values. The
relative

pressure value depends on the climate zone set, and can be
preset on thewatch. The relative pressure presetting is in line
with the altitude.

Characteristics of function

Measurement range: absolute pressure: 300 hPa to 1100 hPa

  relative pressure: 950 hPa to 1100 hPa

Accuracy: absolute pressure: ± 3 hPa

  relative pressure: varies with altimeter

Resolution: 1 hPa

Unit conversion: 1 hectoPascal [hPa] = 1 millibar [mb]

METEO (WEATHER) > GLOSSARY

Description of function

In weather mode, the hands are superimposed

to indicate the weather trend.

Explanations

Weather changes are related to variations in

atmospheric pressure. When atmospheric pres-

sure increases the sky clears. The area is then

referred to as a «high pressure» area or «anticy-

clone» (A). When atmospheric pressure decreas-

es the sky clouds over. The area is then referred

to as a «low pressure» area or «depression» (D).

The T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 watch measures these

pressure variations and indicates the weather

trend with the hands, which can adopt the following 7 positions
according to

the weather developments:- 6’: Big pressure drop, rapid
deterioration

— 4’: Moderate pressure drop, probable

deterioration

— 2’: Small pressure drop, probable slight

deterioration

12 o’clock: No notable weather change

+ 2’: Slight pressure rise, probable slight

improvement

+ 4’: Moderate pressure rise, probable

improvement

+ 6’: Big pressure rise, rapid improvement

We advise you to stop the altitude difference meter during rest
times and thenrestart it, in order to obtain more accurate
results.

Note 1: «Presetting» an altimeter means settingit to the actual
altitude of a known point (see pre-setting procedure on page 11).
The actual altitudevalues are indicated on various media:
signposts,

contour lines and spot heights on maps. The al-titude
«presetting» is in line with relative atmos-pheric pressure.

Note 2: In an airliner, since the cabin is pressurised, your
altimeter will notindicate an accurate altitude.

Note 3: To optimise the accuracy of your altimeter, you are
advised to selectthe climate zone, see page 9.

Characteristics of function

Description of function

In altimeter mode, your T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 be-comes a barometric
altimeter, displaying the alti-tude relative to mean sea level.

Explanations

This is a barometric instrument, which calculates

the altitude as a function of absolute pressure(atmospheric). As
the altitude rises, pressuredrops, and vice versa. So the altimeter
measuresthe difference between absolute pressure (atmos-pheric) and
relative pressure (relative to sea level)

to display the altitude. Your T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 is temperature
compensated,and you can adjust your geographic location (hemisphere
and climate zone).The altitude displayed is therefore corrected
automatically.This makes it the ideal instrument for measuring
vertical movement with thealtitude difference function (e.g. in
mountain trekking). The altitude differencemeter indicates the
elapsed time, cumulative altitude gains and losses andmean vertical
speeds of ascent and descent.

NB!

Due to the use of pressure to calculate altitude, the altimeter
is sensitive tovariations in atmospheric pressure in weather
changes. It is not uncommonto observe altitude differences of 100 m
in a night. So the value displayed

may vary without the altitude having actually changed.

Compass

In compass mode, your T-TOUCH SOLAR E84

indicates the True North Pole, factoring in

magnetic declination.

Compass explanations

The vertical lines (meridians) on the Earth converge at the True
North Pole

(Ng), indicating its direction. The hand of a conventional
compass indicates

the direction of the Magnetic North Pole (Nm).

The angle (α) between these two directions

Ng and Nm is known as magnetic declination.

The magnetic declination value depends on your

location on Earth. Furthermore, the Magnetic

North Pole is constantly moving. So the magnet-

ic declination value also depends on the date.

If the correct magnetic declination value (for

the location and date) is set (see the setting

procedure on page 15), the minute hand of your

T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 will point to True North

(Ng). If the magnetic declination is set to 0, your T-TOUCH
SOLAR E84 will

point to Magnetic north (Nm). The magnetic declination values
and dates are

indicated on topographic charts, or can be found using special
software avail-

able on the Internet.

For the whole world:http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/

Azimuth

In azimuth mode, your T-TOUCH indicates the azimuth heading you
should take.

Azimuth explanations

The azimuth is the horizontal angle

between the direction of an object

and True North. The azimuth ismeasured from north in degrees

from 0° to 359° (e.g.: East = 90°).

In azimuth mode, the T-TOUCH

emits a beep and visual signal

when the 6-12 o’clock axis of the

watch is aligned with the azimuth

heading set.

12 o’clock represents the azimuth heading relative to True
North.

Note 1

For a correct indication of North, it is extremely important to
hold the watch as

level as possible.

Note 2

The compass function, like any other compass,

should not be used near a metal or magnetic

object. In case of doubt, you can recalibrate your

compass.

REGATTA > GLOSSARY

Regatta

A regatta is a race between two or more boats, generally sailing
boats.

It comprises several stages, and begins with a «start procedure»
which can last up to 10 minutes, during whichall the boats
competing in the regatta must remain behind the start line. As the
boats are constantly movingbehind this line, the goal is to remain
as close as possible to it when the countdown ends, in order to
gainthe advantage from the off. Throughout the «start procedure»,
cannon shots tell the regatta competitors thetime remaining before
the start signal. To maximise your chances of a flying start, you
can synchronise yourT-TOUCH SOLAR E84 with the cannon
shots.

Once the countdown has finished, the race starts and all the
competitors must follow a course marked bybuoys around which they
must navigate on their way to the finish line. The boat finishing
the course first winsthe regatta.

Description of function

Your T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 is equipped with a special countdown
for regattas, which can be set to a value ofbetween 0 and 10
minutes, and used during the regatta «start procedure». The watch
emits a triple beep at theend of every minute, a double beep every
ten seconds during the last minute, a single beep for each of the
last9 seconds, and finally a quintuple beep announcing the start of
the race when the countdown reaches zero.

Furthermore, during the countdown you can synchronise your
T-TOUCH SOLAR E84 with the cannon shots usingthe «-»
push-button. It is synchronised to the nearest whole minute.

When the countdown reaches zero, it automatically switches to a
race chronograph, indicating the days, hours,minutes and seconds
elapsed on the LCD screen.

Fast continuous setting

When setting the watch, you can press and hold the push-button
to switch tofast continuous setting mode, in which the display
moves at a faster rate thanin non-continuous or normal speed
setting mode. To exit fast continuous settingmode, you need to
release the push-buttons for 1 second to continue in normalspeed
setting mode.
