If voltage of the ATOM decreases to the Warning level
(2.75 volts), the Battery icon will appear on Surface display
screens (fig. 3a) as an indication that the Battery should be
changed prior to commencing a series of dives.
If the ATOM's voltage decreases to the Alarm level (2.50
volts), the Battery icon will flash and the message CHNG >
BATT will scroll at the top of the display (Fig. 4). Operation
will automatically revert to Main Time Mode. The ATOM
would then only operate in Watch modes until the Battery
becomes completely depleted.
Low Battery Warning/Alarm conditions are not displayed
during Dive Modes.
If a Low Battery Condition was not displayed prior to
starting a Dive, and a Low Battery Condition occurs during
the dive, there will be sufficient Battery power remaining to
maintain operation for the remainder of that dive.
Transmitters use one 3 volt, CR2 Lithium Battery. A Transmitter's
battery should provide normal operation for 1 year or 300 dive
hours. Transmitters check battery voltage when they are pressur-
ized and will send a Low Battery signal to the Receiver in the
ATOM when the voltage drops below the Warning level.
Transmitter Low Battery Warning/Alarm conditions are only
displayed on Status screens that can be accessed while
viewing the NORM Surface Display.
