IMMEDIATE VIOLATION MODE AND GAUGE MODE
WARNING: The Resource Pro enters Immediate Violation Mode when a
situation totally exceeds its capacity to predict an ascent procedure.
These dives represent gross excursions into decompression that are
beyond the boundaries and spirit of the Resource Pro design, and a
Resource Pro should not be used for the dives.
Gauge Mode Underwater
If a Decompression ceiling Stop Depth of 70FT (21M) or greater is required, an Immediate
Violation Mode (Gauge Mode) will be entered . This situation would be preceded by entering a
Delayed Violation Mode.
The Resource Pro would then operate with limited functions in Gauge Mode during the remain-
der of that dive and for 24 hours after surfacing.
Gauge Mode turns the Resource Pro into a digital instrument without any decompression moni-
toring functions. Only Current Depth and the bar graphs will be displayed on the Main screen
(Fig. 42). Max Depth and Elapsed Dive Time, and Temperature and Time of Day can be viewed
on Alternate displays. The full Nitrogen Bar Graph will flash as a warning. The Backlight can
be activated.
