WET CONTACTS
The Wet Contact Dive Mode Activation feature is active any time
WET ACTIVATION is set ON.
The Elite T3 is configured with contacts that will automatically
activate Dive Mode when the space between the contacts is
bridged by a conductive material (immersed in water) and it
senses a Depth of 5 FT (1.5 M) for 5 seconds.
The contacts are the pins of the PC Interface Data Port and the
stems of the Push Buttons.
As long as the contacts are bridged on the Surface, the graphic
WET will alternate with the graphics NORM and SEA (or EL2 to
EL13) on the NORM SURF MAIN screen (Fig. 68). Also on the
GAUG and FREE SURF MAINs.
Upon removing the bridge between the contacts (drying the Elite
T3), the graphic WET will no longer be displayed.
The Elite T3 will continue checking for Depth, until a dive is
made or it shuts Off after 2 hours after activation.
