DIVE COMPUTER (DC) OPERATING MODES
As described on page 12, the ATOM features 3 selectable DC
Operating Modes -
NORM - for Normal Air or Nitrox dives
GAUG - for dives with no Nitrogen/Oxygen calculations
FREE - for dives with no SCUBA
REMINDER: Once a dive is made in GAUG Mode,
the ATOM is locked into that Mode for 24 hours
after the dive.
SURFACE MODE
Pressing and holding the M button for 2 seconds while the Local
Default Watch TIME screen is displayed (Main Time or Alternate
Time, whichever was selected as the Default) accesses the
selected SURFACE MODE screen (NORM, GAUG, or FREE).
If no dive has been taken within the past 24 hours, the NORM
SURF MAIN screen will appear as the default (Fig. 33).
The GAUG and FREE SURF MAIN screens can be accessed
by subsequent 2 second presses of the M button.
The Operating Mode selected (NORM, GAUG, or FREE)
will remain on display for 2 hours until a dive is made or
another Operating Mode is selected.
