METRIC/IMPERIAL MODES:
If the computer is computing and displaying
in Metric, the “METRIC” legend will be illuminated when the computer is
on. Metric/Imperial selection is made using the Analyst
®
software.
Changing Modes does not affect any profiles or data stored in the
computer.
LOW BATTERY INDICATIONS:
Fresh batteries should read about 3.2
volts on the Information Screen. When the battery voltage drops to 2.5
volts, the “BATT” legend will be illuminated. It is recommended to change
the batteries at this point, but several dives might still remain possible.
When the battery voltage decays to 2.2 volts, the “BATT” legend will begin
to flash on and off. Once the “BATT” legend begins to flash the
TACLITE™ is deactivated, to conserve the remaining battery power even
though the unit may be on a dive, and can not be activated until fresh
batteries are installed. While there should be sufficient battery power to
normally complete a dive, it is not recommended to begin a new dive until
fresh batteries are installed. After the computer automatically turns itself
off 70 minutes after a dive, it cannot be turned back on if the battery
voltage is less than 2.0 volts. Fresh batteries must be installed. See the
“BATTERY CHANGES” section of this manual for detailed information on
how to change batteries.
CAUTION!!!
COMPLETE LOSS OF BATTERY POWER MAY CAUSE
ALL PREVIOUS DIVE NITROGEN LOADING TO BE LOST. THIS WILL
AFFECT NITROGEN CALCULATIONS ON NEAR-FUTURE DIVES.
AFTER A BATTERY CHANGE, CONFIRM THAT NO-DECOMPRESSION
TIME DATA IS REASONABLE IN THE PRE-DIVE PREDICTION MODE.
DIVE-OF-DAY NUMBER GOING TO ZERO IMMEDIATELY AFTER
CHANGING BATTERIES IS ANOTHER INDICATION OF A LOSS OF
NITROGEN LOADING.
