DIVE NUMBERING SHOWN DURING DIVE
PLANNING
Several repetitive dives are considered to belong to the same repetitive dive series
when the dive computer has not deactivated itself. The first dive of the series will be
numbered as DIVE 1, the second as DIVE 2, the third as DIVE 3 etc. (Fig. 3.7). When the
surface time has been less than 10 minutes, the dives are considered to be the same. The
dive number will not change for the second part of such a dive and the dive time will
start where it left off.
3.3.3 Calendar Clock Function
The calendar clock is always shown on the display, when the instrument is deactivated.
Once the dive computer is activated the TIME display can be retrieved any time on the
surface mode by touching the TIME/MODE and COM contacts for about two seconds.
The current time and date will be shown for four seconds (Fig. 3.8).
When diving, the dive entry time and date is registered in the logbook memory. Remem-
ber always to check before diving that the clock is set, especially when traveling to
different time zones. For adjusting the clock, refer to Sec. 4.4, “Setting Time and Date”.
In the metric version of the instrument, the 24-hour time system is used, while in the
imperial version the 12-hour time system is used.

The no-decompression time limit at 30.0 m
[100 ft] is decreased to 5 minutes in A1 mode
after the third dive of the series.
Fig. 3.8 TIME DISPLAY
