OXYGEN ALARMS IN NITROX MODE
Three double beeps and the backlight activated for 5 seconds occur, when:
•
the OLF bar graph reaches 80%. The segments exceeding the 80% limit
start to blink (Fig. 3.24.)
•
the OLF bar graph reaches 100%.
The blinking of the segments exceeding 80% will stop, when the OLF is not loading
anymore. At that point the PO
2
is less than 0.5 bar.
Continuous beeps for 3 minutes and the backlight activated for 5 seconds
occur, when:
•
the set oxygen partial pressure limit is exceeded. The maximum depth
is replaced with a current blinking PO
2
value. You should immediately
ascend above the PO
2
depth limit (Fig. 3.24.).
NOTE! When the backlight is turned OFF, it does not illuminate when an
alarm is activated.
