Home Site Data
Tide graph data and Bearing Mode solar azimuth data will not be displayed properly
unless Home Site data (GMT differential, longitude, and lunitidal interval) is configured
correctly.
The GMT differential is the time difference of the time zone where the site is located
from Greenwich Mean Time.
Note that you must add one hour to the GMT differential for your time zone
whenever you change to Daylight Saving Time. Subtract one hour when you change
back to Standard Time.
The lunitidal interval is the time elapsing between the Moon’s transit over a meridian
and the next high tide at that meridian. See “Lunitidal Interval” for more information.
This watch displays lunitidal intervals in terms of hours and minutes.
The “Site/Lunitidal Interval Data List” provides GMT differential, longitude, and
lunitidal interval information around the world.
The following is the initial factory default Home Site data (Tokyo, Japan) when you
first purchase the watch and whenever you have the battery replaced. Change these
settings to match the area where you normally use the watch.
GMT differential (+9.0); Longitude (East 140 degrees); Lunitidal interval (5 hours,20 minutes)To configure Home Site data

Bearing Mode

The Bearing Mode lets you determine approximate
directions using a displayed angle value that indicates the
angle to the sun (solar azimuth).
All of the operations in this section are performed in the
Bearing Mode, which you can enter from the
Timekeeping Mode by pressing B.
Important!
Before the watch can calculate the solar azimuth (the
angle of the sun in relation to your location) correctly, you
must first set the correct current time, current date, and
Home Site in the Timekeeping Mode. You must also
specify whether the sun traverses the sky to the north or
to the south of your current position.
Solar azimuth
Note that you cannot use the Bearing Mode to determine directions in the following
cases.
When the sun is not visibl
e
At nightWhen sun traverses the sky directly overhead or when you cannot determine if ittraverses to the north or southTo set the traverse direction of the sun
1.In the Bearing Mode, hold down A until N or S flashes
on the display. This indicates the setting screen.
2.Press D to toggle the setting between N (north) and S
(south).
3.Press A to exit the setting screen.
At this time the watch uses the traverse direction setting
you just configured and the Timekeeping Mode data to
calculate and display the solar azimuth.

Remember to refer to the specific instructions in the Casio 2926 watch manual for more detailed information.

Why is the tide graph not displaying correctly on my Casio 2926 watch?

The tide graph on your Casio 2926 watch may not be displaying correctly due to the following reasons: 1. Incorrect Timekeeping Mode settings: Ensure that the current time and date settings in the Timekeeping Mode are accurate. The tide graph relies on the current date and time to display tidal movements correctly. 2. Incorrect Home Site Data: The tide graph also depends on the correct configuration of Home Site data, including the GMT differential, longitude, and lunitidal interval. Make sure these settings are properly configured for your location. 3. Moon Phase Indicator: The tide graph is influenced by the current Moon phase. Ensure that the Moon phase indicator is displaying the correct phase based on the current date. Note that the Moon phase indicator may have a margin of error of ±3 days. 4. Moon Age Calculation: The watch performs a rough calculation of the current Moon age. Keep in mind that the displayed Moon age may have a margin of error of ±3 days, which can affect the accuracy of the tide graph. To resolve the issue, verify and adjust the Timekeeping Mode settings, Home Site Data, and Moon phase indicator to ensure accurate display of the tide graph on your Casio 2926 watch.
