The iX3M in GAUGE mode
Use the Gauge mode as described in the example on the left.
ATTENTION: To use the iX3M in GAUGE mode an
adequate training is necessary!
To start the dive in GAUGE mode select the desired mode with button
D
and start
the dive.
If you want that the iX3M recognize the GAUGE mode as default (and start the dive
in GAUGE mode even if we start diving with the computer switched off ) see the
DIVE SET section of this manual.
Do you know what?:
With the iX3M you can set the default mode that the device must activate
automatically when entering water between Dive with tank (default), Dive with Reb (only for
iX3M Tech+ and iX3M Reb),
GAUGE
or FREE from the menu DIVE SET.
Do your know what?:
The iX3M calculates in background the tissue saturation and desaturation also in GAUGE mode
using a .fake Mix (10/60) with a high inert contents. This value is registered in the logbook.
If after a dive in GAUGE you want to to carry out a dive in OC using the iX3M decompressive
calculations, the iX3M will consider the new dive as the next repetitive of the day.
Well note:
Even if the iX3M carries out the decompressive calculation in background, they cannot be
visualized on the screen and they don’t even affect the GAUGE mode.
