Big number is your current altitude/elevation above sea level - assuming you calibrated your barometer. Smaller number could be a variety of things, but is most likely your difference in altitude from a prescribed point (where you pressed the upper left button)

Should be the elevation gain after it's put into altitude mode. Check the manual to be sure.
