Meridian Platinum Barometer Question

weaselphd

I recently sold my Meridian Platinum to a buddy and the weather or Barometer screen is stating that there is no historical data???? it worked prior to doing the full reset prior to selling the GPS. Im a bit miffed because the darn owners manual does not even mention the barometer screen.

can anyone please comment on why the barometer is saying no historical data, and how can i get it to work again?

thanks

I have a sportrak color, and if it is turned off for any period of time, the barometer says that there is insuficient information to give a reading. maybe you (or your friend) should leave it switched on for a while?

The MeriPlat holds a barometer history of the last 24 elapsed hours, not the last 24 hours the receiver has been switched on. So if your receiver was swithed off for 24 hours or more, the history will be empty.

sounds about the same as the sportrak, the only diference being, the sportraks barometer works over a 48 hour period........
