3. DIVING WITH THE DIVE COMPUTER
This section contains instructions on how to operate the dive computer and interpret
its displays. Each display has been carefully designed to provide important infor-
mation you will need to plan your dive or dive series.
You will find that the instrument is easy to use and read. Each display shows only the
data relevant to that specific diving situation. For example, while you are on a dive,
surface interval data is irrelevant and therefore not shown. On the other hand, while
you are on the surface after a dive, remaining no-decompression time for that dive is
irrelevant and therefore replaced with information for your next dive.
3.1 USE OF WATER CONTACTS
As described in Section 2.1, Water Contacts, the dive computer is controlled with
the COM (common), PLAN/ON, and TIME/MODE contacts (Fig 3.1), as follows:
Activation:
touch the PLAN/ON and COM contacts.
Dive planning:
once the instrument has been activated, touch the
PLAN/ON and COM contacts.
Clock:
once the instrument has been activated, touch the
TIME/MODE and COM contacts for two seconds.
The time is then displayed for four seconds.
