BUDDY PRESSURE CHECK (NORM only)
During NORM Dives, the VT3 can be used to check (display)
Tank Pressure of 1 or 2 buddies whose TMT Link Codes (Serial
Numbers) have been entered as TMT 2 and TMT 3 in the VT3's
SET U menu.
NOTE: Use of the Buddy Pressure Check feature
cannot be performed when TMT 2-3 USE is set
for SELF (Gas Switching) or while operating in
GAUG Mode.
Access to Buddy Pressure Check screens during dives can only
be accomplished during the time that a NORM DIVE MAIN
screen is being displayed and cannot be performed while
viewing Alternate displays or during the time that an Alarm is
sounding.
BUDDY PRESSURE CHECK DURING DIVES
• Bring the VT3 within 3 feet (1 meter) of the Buddy's
Transmitter.
• Press and hold the M button for 2 seconds while viewing a
NORM DIVE MAIN screen to access the TMT 2-3 USE
screen displaying the Set Point bud (Fig. 93). If SELF is
displayed, indicating that the VT3 is set for FO2 GAS
Switching, a Buddy Pressure Check cannot be performed.
