Press [UP] to step through the dive profile graph or keep [UP] pressed to auto-scroll.
The dive profile graph shows point by point dive information such as depth, compass
heading, decompression info, ceiling and ascent time.
The End of Logs text is displayed between the oldest and most recent dive.
The logbook capacity depends on the sample rate. With the default setting (20 s) and without
transmitter data the capacity is approximately 140 hours. With transmitter data the capacity is
minimum 35 hours.
If the memory is full, when new dives are added, the oldest dives are deleted.
The contents of the memory remain when the battery is changed (providing that the battery
has been replaced according to the instructions).
NOTE: Several repetitive dives are considered to belong to the same repetitive dive
series if the no-fly time has not ended.
3.11. Dive mode
The dive mode in Suunto D6M is Gauge mode which you can use as a bottom timer.
The timer in the center of the display shows dive time in minutes and seconds and activates
at the start of the dive. The total running dive time, in minutes, is in the lower right corner.
The timer in the center of the display can be used as a stopwatch by pressing [SELECT]
during the dive.
Long pressing [DOWN] resets the main timer and adds a bookmark to the dive log. The
previously-timed interval is displayed below the main timer.
Gauge mode has the following settings
•
Depth alarm (see 2a294d48-3773-4838-ae8d-29b5200c3b63)
•
Dive time alarm (see c94c7d35-ea15-4b74-b48f-71afda0690af)
•
Sample rate (see fb06fb1e-728b-48de-9ddd-9a16f1e7ba10)
Gauge mode is a bottom timer only and thus includes no decompression information or
calculations.
3.12. Dive numbering
If the Suunto D6M has not counted the no-fly time down to zero, then repetitive dives belong
to the same dive series.
Within each series, the dives are given numbers. The first dive of the series is DIVE 1, the
second DIVE 2, and so on.
If you start a new dive with less than five (5) minutes at the surface, Suunto D6M treats the
new dive as part of the previous dive. The dive time continues where it left off.
After five (5) minutes or more at the surface, any new dives are part of a repetitive dive series.
The dive counter displayed in the planning mode adds one to each new dive in the repetitive
series.
The planning mode allows you to review the no-decompression limits on the next dive in a
series.
