7. System Monitor Mode
This mode provides a general indication of the amount of charge remaining in the
secondary battery along with the usage status of flash memory.
A. Switching the Display
• The display switches back and forth each time button (B) is pressed in the system
monitor mode.
• The watch's identification number is displayed when button (C) is pressed during the
flash memory status display.
* The watch automatically returns to the time mode when none of the buttons are pressed for
about 3 minutes in the system monitor mode.
B. Battery Charge Indicator
The battery charge indicator provides a general reference
for determining the amount of charge remaining in the
secondary battery. In addition, it also indicates whether or
not each function can be operated ("OK" or "NG") at the
current battery charge level. When the watch is sufficiently
charged in the case "NG" is indicated for each function, the
display changes to "OK" and each of the functions can be
operated.
G.C.: Garbage Collection
This indicates whether or not the garbage collection operation can be performed.
* This watch uses flash memory to store the various setting and diving data of the watch edited
with a personal computer. Whenever new data is recorded in flash memory, areas of memory
that are no longer used as well as areas of memory in the gaps between files are generated in
the flash memory. Garbage collection refers to an operation that creates continuous areas of
available memory so that these areas can be reused automatically.
: Diving Function
This indicates whether or not the watch can be used for diving.
* When "NG" is displayed, the watch will not switch to the dive mode. The watch can therefore
not be used for diving in this state.
Ir: Infrared Communication Function
This indicates whether or not the infrared communication function can be used for data transfer
with a personal computer or between watches.
