Alternative displays by pressing the TIME but-
ton (Fig. 3.9.):
• the current time, shown as TIME
• the water temperature in °C [°F]
NOTE! In Dive Mode the alternative display
switches back to the main display after 5 se-
conds.
3.3.2. Bookmark
It is possible to make special marks in the pro-
file memory during a dive. These Bookmarks
will be shown as a dive log symbol when
scrolling the profile memory on the computer
display. The Bookmarks will also be shown as
annotations in the PC-software, Suunto Dive
Manager. To make a bookmark on the profile
memory during a dive press the PLAN button
(Fig. 3.10.).
3.3.3. Cylinder Pressure Data
When using the optional wireless pressure
transmitter the pressure of your scuba cylin-
der in bars [psi] will be shown digitally in the
lower left corner of the display Anytime you
enter into a dive, the remaining air time calcu-
lation begins. After 30 - 60 seconds (some-
times more, depending on your air consump-
tion), the first estimation of remaining air time
will be shown in the left center window of the
display. The calculation is always based on
the actual pressure drop in your cylinder and
will automatically adapt to your cylinder size
and current air consumption.
The change in your air consumption will be
based on constant one second interval pres-
sure measurements over 30 - 60 second pe-
riods. An increase in air consumption will in-
fluence the remaining air time rapidly, while a
drop in air consumption will increase the air
time slowly. Thus a too optimistic air time esti-
mation, caused by a temporary drop in air
consumption, is avoided.
