Tides rise and fall about every six hours. Tides are the periodic rise and fall of the water of oceans, seas, bays, and other bodies of water caused mainly by the gravitational interactions between the Earth, Moon and Sun. Reverse the displayed Moon phase” (page E-81) to change the indicator. Moon as viewed from your location, you can use the procedure under “To If theĪppearance of the Moon phase indicator is reversed from the actual It is based on the view of the left side of the moonĪt meridian transit from the northern hemisphere of the Earth. The Moon phase indicator of this watch indicates the current phase of the Since this watch performs calculations using integer values only (no fractions), the margin for error of the displayed Moon age is ± 1 day. This watch performs a rough calculation of the current Moon age starting from day 0 of the moon age cycle. * The angle to the Moon in relation to the direction at which the Sun is visible from the Earth. The greater the angular distance between the Moon and the Sun,* the more we see illuminated. During each cycle, the Moon appears to wax and wane as the relative positioning of the Earth, Moon, and Sun changes. The Moon goes through a regular 29.53-day cycle. When the Moon phase indicator setting is the way you want, press E to exit the switching screen and return to the Tide/Moon Data Mode screen. Press A to toggle the Moon phase indicator between the southerly view (indicated by ) and northerly view (indicated by ).Ĥ. This is the indicator switching screen.ģ.
For information about the Moon phase indicator, see “Moon Phase Indicator” (page E-82).To determine the viewing direction of the Moon, use a compass to take a direction reading of the Moon at its meridian passage.You can use the procedure below to reverse the displayed Moon phase so it matches the actual appearance of the Moon where you are located. The left-right (east-west) appearance of the Moon depends on whether the Moon is north of you (northerly view) or south of you (southerly view) as you view it. The second high tide time for that day is adjusted automatically based on the first high tide time. With this watch, you can adjust the first high tide time only. On some days, there are two high tides.The high tide time setting is not affected by the DST (summer time) setting of the Timekeeping Mode.Changing the Home City setting in the Timekeeping Mode returns the high tide time to its initial value.Pressing A and C at the same time while the time adjustment screen is displayed (steps 3 through 6 above) will return the high tide time to its initial factory default setting.When the minute setting is the way you want, press E to exit the adjustment screen and return to the Tide/Moon Data Mode screen. Press A (+) and C (–) to change the minute setting.Ħ. This will cause the minute digits to flash.ĥ.When the hour is the setting you want, press D.
Press A (+) and C (–) to change the hour setting.Ĥ. Hold down E until SET Hold appears on the display and then the hour digits start to flash.ģ.
In the Tide/Moon Data Mode, use A (+) and C (–) to scroll to the date whose high tide time you want to change.Ģ. You can find out high tide information for your area from a tide table, the Internet, or your local newspaper. Use the following procedure to adjust the high tide time within a particular date.
