Thermometer

This watch uses a temperature sensor to measure temperature. A reading is taken during each even-numbered minute, and the result of the last reading is displayed on the thermometer screen.
The watch also takes separate readings and stores them in memory for display in the temperature tendency graph, which can be viewed in the Timekeeping Mode. Measured temperature values are stored in memory for later recall when you need them.

CASIO-5056-Watch-fig13

  • You can select either Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F) units for the thermometer screen. See “To specify the temperature display unit” for more information.
  • The thermometer screen displays temperature values in 0.1°C units (or 0.2°F units). The display range of the thermometer screen is –10.0°C to 60.0°C (or 14.0°F to 140.0°F).
  • You can calibrate the temperature sensor if you feel that the displayed temperature values are not correct. See “Temperature Sensor Calibration” for more information. Important!
  • Temperature measurements are affected by your body temperature (while you are wearing the watch), direct sunlight, and moisture. To achieve a more accurate temperature measurement, remove the watch from your wrist, place it in a well-ventilated location out of direct sunlight, and wipe all moisture from the case. It takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes for the case of the watch to reach the actual surrounding temperature.

Temperature Tendency Graph

  • The watch also takes temperature readings at the top and the bottom of each hour and stores the results in memory for display on the temperature tendency graph. Depending on the current Timekeeping Mode time, the temperature tendency graph shows either the top-of-the-hour measurements or the bottom-of-the-hour measurements for the past 17 hours.
  • From the top of each hour to the 29th minute, past top of the hour readings are shown in the graph. From the bottom of each hour to the 59th minute, past the bottom of the hour readings are shown in the graph.
  • Temperature tendency graph contents are updated every 30 minutes.

CASIO-5056-Watch-fig14

The horizontal axis of the graph represents time. The rightmost column is the newest temperature value in memory, while the leftmost column is the temperature value stored approximately 17 hours ago (1 dot = 1 hour). The vertical axis of the graph represents the relative change from one hour to the next.

  • When the relative change from one hour to the next exceeds +10.0°C (+18.0°F), the dot at the highest point for the applicable hour flashes.
  • When the relative change from one hour to the next exceeds –10.0°C (–18.0°F), there is no dot in the applicable hour’s column.
  • If a measurement error occurs for some reason, only a single the dot in the center column will be displayed.
    CASIO-5056-Watch-fig15

Recalling Temperature Data

  • The measurements the watch takes at the top and the bottom of each hour are stored in memory automatically. Memory can hold up to 50 measurement records. You can use the Temperature Data Recall Mode to recall memory data when you need it.
  • Each temperature data record has a number. The newest data record is number 01, while the oldest data record is the one with the highest number.
  • When there are already 50 records in memory, storage of a new temperature reading causes the oldest record (record number 50) to be deleted automatically to make room for the new data. The new data is assigned record number 1, and all of the numbers of all the other records (01 to 49) are incremented by 1 (becoming 02 through 50).

CASIO-5056-Watch-fig32

  • The Moon phase indicator shows the Moon as viewed at noon from a position in the Northern Hemisphere looking south. Note that at times the image shown by the Moon phase indicator may differ from that of the actual Moon in your area.
  • The left-right orientation of the Moon phase is reversed when viewing from the Southern Hemisphere or from a point near the equator.

Moon Phases and Moon Age

  • The Moon goes through a regular 29.53-day cycle. During each cycle, the Moon appears to wax and wane as the relative positioning of the Earth, Moon, and Sun changes. The greater the angular distance between the Moon and the Sun,* the more we see illuminated.
  • The angle to the Moon in relation to the direction at which the Sun is visible from the Earth.
  • This watch performs a rough calculation of the current Moon age starting from day 0 of the moon age cycle. Since this watch performs calculations using integer values only (no fractions), the margin for error of the displayed Moon age is ± 1 day.

Thermometer

Temperature Sensor Calibration
The temperature sensor built into the watch is calibrated at the factory and normally requires no further adjustment. If you notice serious errors in the temperature readings produced by the watch, you can calibrate the sensor to correct the errors.
Important!
Incorrectly calibrating the temperature sensor can result in incorrect readings. Carefully read the following before doing anything.

  • Compare the readings produced by the watch with those of another reliable and accurate thermometer.
  • If adjustment is required, remove the watch from your wrist and wait for 20 or 30 minutes to give the temperature of the watch time to stabilize.

To calibrate the temperature sensor

  1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down A until the seconds start to flash, which indicates the setting screen.
  2. Press C nine times to display the temperature sensor calibration screen.
  3. Use D (+) and B (–) to change the calibration value.
