just press "b" and that sets the altimeter

Or if you look on the altimeter itself the is a button labelled "baro" if you move your mouse over it you get a + or a - sign and you can change it automatically.

Welcome aboard.

If you are using real time weather make sure to reset your altimeter before attempting to land. The pressure may have changed since you took off.

Pressing "B" is the easy way, or you can set it manually as suggested in another post.
