Description of functions
The following functions are available during normal mode and surface mode.
•Date
This shows the current date.
•Current time
This shows the current time (colon blinks).
•Altitude rank
The computer automatically measures the current altitude and uses the rank symbols
described below to indicate the altitude range.
Measurements are retaken every 10 minutes.
RANGE ALTITUDE RANGE
0 From 0,0 meters Sea Level To 800 meters
1 From 800 meters To 1600 meters
2 From 1600 meters To 2400 meters
3 From 2400 meters To 6000 meters
E Above 6000 meters “out of Range”
RANGE ALTITUDE RANGE
0 From 0,0 Ft. Sea Level To 2624 Ft.
1 From 2624 Ft. To 5248 Ft.
2 From 5248 Ft. To 7872 Ft.
3 From 7872 Ft. To 19680 Ft.
E Above 6000 Ft. “out of Range”
When the measured altitude is above 19,685 feet (6,000 meters), "E" is displayed and
the dive computer cannot be used. The computer is reset and becomes usable again
when a lower altitude is measured. If the computer contains data such as residual
nitrogen and oxygen data, the calculations and displays in effect when the computer
detects an altitude of more than 19,685 feet (6,000 meters) are retained while the
computer is disabled and the retained values are restored when the measured altitude
becomes less than 19,685 feet (6,000 meters). The same displays and processing occur
in cases where the computer is somehow unable to measure the altitude.
Altitude measurements are performed in all modes except for dive mode and time
setting mode and transfer mode.
The altitude rank symbol display is shown in all modes except for time setting
mode, dive log mode, profile mode, and transfer mode. (However, the rank
display is shown while in dive mode.)
•Surface time
This indicates the amount of time since ascending to the surface: the time counter
starts when dive mode indicates a depth of less than 5 feet (1.5 meters). If the depth
measurement becomes more than 5 feet (1.5 meters) within the first ten minutes of
surface time, the previous dive mode operations are continued. The Surface time can
be measured for up to 48 hours, 1 minute after which it is automatically turned off.
