Low Battery Condition
Voltage level is checked upon activation and every 10 minutes during operation.
• When the unit estimates that 75 % of the Rated Power has been consumed, the lower
bar of the Battery Indicator (only segment) will be displayed, and the outline of the
Indicator will flash once per second as a warning that the battery is to be replaced prior
to conducting any further dives.
• Upon decreasing to a voltage level that will no longer sustain proper operation, the
Indicator will flash 5 times followed by shutdown of the unit.
• If a Low Battery Condition exists when the unit is activated (by pressing the button), the
graphic bAT and the Battery Indicator will appear flashing for 5 seconds (Fig. 9) fol-
lowed by shutdown of the unit.
• If the button is not pressed to activate the unit prior to a dive, and a Low Battery Condi-
tion exists, the Battery Indicator will appear flashing as a warning upon descent past 4
feet (1.2 meters). No other information will be displayed.
• If the unit did not display a Low Battery Condition 'prior to'
entering the Dive Mode, and a Low Battery Condition occurs
during the dive, there will be sufficient battery power to main-
tain unit operation for the remainder of 'that dive'. The Battery
Indicator will appear after the dive in Surface Mode.
When the Battery is removed, settings and nitrogen and
oxygen calculations for repetitive dives will be retained, if a
new battery can be inserted within 8 seconds. Otherwise the
calculations will reset to zero and settings such as Time, Date,
and FO2 must be reset.
