COMPUTER CONTROL

HOW THE DRAKE WATCH COMPUTER WORKS - CLOCK 
FUNCTION

Drake has a very intuitive display, which "accompanies" the diver during any operation and four push-
buttons with which it is possible to control the device: two upper (LIGHT and MODE) and two lower (UP 
and DOWN).

PUSH-BUTTONS FUNCTIONS

Each push-button has a precise function which is described below.
LIGHT push-button: This push-button is used to light the display to quickly pass the programs FREE and 
PRO or vice versa, and to turn off the device.
MODE push-button: This push-button is used to enter into the different menus or to confirm any 
information. Pressing can be short or long. In the clock function, long pressing of 4 seconds allows 
accessing to the underwater computer.
UP push-button: This push-button is used to scroll through the different menus and to set adjustments in 
ascending order.
DOWN push-button: This push-button is used to scroll through the menu and to set adjustments in 
descending order.

The displays that characterise the clock function are five:
- The first shows a time indication in the central area.
- The second one, besides the main time, shows the secondary time in the lower area. The date in the left 
upper area and the seconds in the right upper area.
- The third one is the CHRONO display: Indicating that from this menu, it is possible to access to the 
chronograph.
- The fourth one is the SET TIME display: Indicating that from this menu it is possible to access to the 
adjustment of time, the secondary time, alarm, date and 12/24 hour. In this menu with the SWAP function, 
it is also possible to exchange the main time with the secondary time zone and vice versa.
- The fifth one is the DIVE display: Indicating that from this menu it is possible to access the underwater 
computer.

TURNING OFF THE DEVICE

To reduce battery consumption when not in use, Drake can be turned off by pressing the LIGHT push-
button for 5 seconds. Switching off will cause the loss of TIME and DATE.

CHRONOGRAPH

To access the chronograph press the UP or DOWN push-button up to the CHRONO menu down in the 
display, then press MODE. CHRONO disappear to give way to the counter. To activate the chronograph, 
press the UP push-button.
If split times are necessary, press the DOWN push-button (upper left, the message L1,2, ... 20 appears 
and the chronograph time will indicate the split time for three seconds and then go back to counting). It is 
possible to store up to 20 split times. While the chronograph is activated, at the upper right, the "LAP 
TIME" will be also activated that detects the time between a split time and the other. It starts from zero 
every time the split time DOWN push-button is pressed. Stop counting by pressing the UP push-button (the 
message stop appears at the upper left). The split times will be displayed by pressing the DOWN push-
button. Zero setting is carried out by pressing and holding the UP push-button. To exit the CHRONO 
function simply hold the MODE push-button for a few seconds until the acoustic signal.
