CLOCK MODE:
The Clock operating mode of the EMC-16 is NOT
enabled when shipped from the factory. It can be enabled via the Analyst
®
P.C. Interface or at an Authorized Cochran Dealer.
TOUCH PROGRAMMING MODE
:
Can only be accessed when the unit is
in the Surface Interval and allows the user to view or program into the dive
computer:
•
Setting Clock and Alarm Time
•
The PreDive Prediction Mode
•
Displaying Mode, mode value, CNS, OTU & battery voltage
•
A Maximum Depth Alarm
•
An Added degree of Conservatism from 0 to 50%
•
Setting oxygen percentage of blend 1 in the Constant FO
2
Mode
•
Setting the Deco FO
2
oxygen percentage
•
Setting the Deco Bottom Time Benchmark
•
Setting the Deco Depth Benchmark
•
Programming the On Time for the TACLITE™
•
Access the Logbook Mode
While all EMC-16 configurations share certain programming features
others are dependent upon the specific configuration of the unit.
Refer to the appropriate manual section for the relevant programming
menu items.
TOUCH PROGRAMMING - CLOCK:
When the EMC-16 is placed into the
Clock mode it will display the time of day in a 24 hour day format. The
clock will continue to run when the EMC-16 is in the Dive Computer Mode.
The EMC-16 can be placed into the Clock Mode from the Dive Computer
Mode when the unit is in the Normal Surface Interval, while the unit is in
Clock Mode the Dive Computer will be in the “Sleep” mode.
The Clock Mode can be selected with or without an Alarm. If the Alarm
option is selected the unit will display the alarm set time as well as the
current time.
When the alarm time is displayed the alarm is activated and at the
programmed time the alarm will sound once every 24 hours. When the
alarm is
activated the unit will issue a medley of all the audible warning
tones that the EMC-16 utilizes and the TACLITE™ will flash for one
minute, this audible alarm can not be turned off, it will sound for the full
one minute period.
NOTE: This Time of Day clock is the same clock that is used to time
stamp dives. Modifying the Time of Day clock will effect the Local
Time as viewed via the Analyst
®
. The Date portion of the Local Time
clock must be changed via the Analyst
®
.
CLOCK PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE:
Contacts 1, 2, & 3 are for programming sequences.
To begin the programming sequence:
1.
Turn the unit on;
2.
Using a coin or other conductive metal object, briefly bridge Contacts
1 and 2 until a short beep is heard and the CLoCk Menu is seen on
the display.
3.
To enter the Clock submenu, bridge Contacts 1 & 2 with wetted
fingers. This will cause the unit to display the CLoCk Alarm selection
– On or OFF. To Toggle the selection, bridge contacts 1&2 with
wetted fingers.
4.
Using a coin or other conductive metal object, bridge Contacts 1 & 2
to access the CLoCk Time or Alarm setting screen.
5.
Shorting Contacts 1 & 2 with a coin will cause the first digit of the
minutes to flash.
6.
Shorting Contacts 2 & 3 with a coin will increment the numeric value;
continue until the required value is displayed. A confirmation beep
will sound with each increment.
7.
Next using wetted finger, bridge Contacts 1 & 2 to select the next
digit, once selected the digit will flash to identify that it is being
programmed. Bridge Contacts 2 & 3 till the desired value is
displayed.
8.
To select Hours short Contacts 1 & 2 with a coin, increment as in step
6 and 7.
9.
Repeat step 5 through 7 until all digits have been programmed.
10. To save the changes that have been made bridge Contact 1 & 2 with
a coin or other conductive metal object. Once the next programming
option is displayed the changes have been saved.
To exit the Clock Mode Bridge contacts 1 & 2 with wetted fingers and the
computer will return to the Dive Computer Mode’s Surface Display.
NOTE: Ensure that the EMC-16 is in the Dive Computer Mode before
commencing a dive.
Figures 40, 41a, 41b, 42 and 43 show how the Clock display screens
appear.
NOTE: Once the EMC-16 is placed in Clock Mode the unit will remain
in that mode until exited by the diver.
TOUCH PROGRAMMING MODE:
NOTE:
To enable the Programming Mode, the EMC-16 must be on the
Surface and not in the Post Dive Interval.
NOTE: All audible and visual alarms are suspended while the EMC-16
is in the Programming Mode. Upon exiting the Programming
Mode all alarms are reactivated.
NOTE: Once a value has been changed and the next menu option
selected, the new value is stored.
NOTE: It is strongly recommended that the Programming Mode is
activated again and a complete review of what was stored is
accomplished.
NOTE: If the EMC-16 is left in the Programming mode for five minutes
without the contacts being touched, the unit will automatically
exit the Programming Mode and return to the Surface Interval.
Once this occurs the EMC-16 will retain the modified
programmed settings that have been stored. Options that
have not been modified will retain their previous settings.
TOUCH PROGRAMMING MODE - PROCEDURE:
Contacts 1, 2, & 3 are for programming sequences.
To begin the programming sequence:
1. Analyze the gas blend(s) using a calibrated Oxygen Analyzer.
2. Turn the unit on.
3. Using a coin or other conductive metal object, briefly bridge Contacts 1
and 2 until a short beep is heard and the Programming Menu is seen
on the display. The menu options depend on whether the unit is
activated for the Clock, and the number of Gas Blends. The Menu
options are displayed in sequence, incrementing to the next selection
each time that Contacts 1 & 2 are bridged with a
coin
. The program
option is displayed on the upper row of the display. The current setting
for this option is displayed in the lower right of the display.
