BACKLIGHT FEATURE
In addition to using a high contrast LCD for easy readability in low light condi-
tions, the DataPlus' Oceanglo® backlight feature evenly and easily illuminates
the full display (Fig. 51). This means that on night dives, in caves, or any other
low light situation, you illuminate the display when you wish to view it with the
touch of a button.
To activate the Oceanglo® backlight during the Dive mode, simply press and
hold the control button. Oceanglo will remain illuminated as long as the button
is depressed, plus 10 seconds after being released. Ambient temperature will be
displayed for the first 2 seconds after the button is depressed.
Oceanic recommends that you always carry primary and backup dive
lights when conducting dives that could include low light situations.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE DISPLAY
When the control button is depressed during a dive, ambient temperature will
replace the current depth on display for the 2 seconds (Fig. 52a). To observe the
value again, you must release the control button and depress it again. Remem-
ber that depressing the button during a dive also toggles the backlight feature,
so during a night dive it may be necessary to depress the button twice to observe
the temperature value as the backlight is turned back on.
