Controls

the screen.
2.
Diver Status
- Allows the user to manually modify the diver status (Left Surface, Reached Surface).
3.
Modem Power
- Change the output power level of the diver modem. The default modem power
level is 6 but the power level can be changed to any level from 5 to 8. When changing the power
level, the text will be displayed with a question mark until a response is received.

Silence
- Silence the diver modem. Effectively, this stops the querying of the diver modem so that
no acoustic signals are transmitted or received. This feature can be used in special circumstances
where it may be critical for a diver not to be noticed. Once silenced, the modem may be enabled
again by clicking the button that is now labeled “
Broadcast.”
5.
End Assist
- End any assistance this diver is providing to another (only available with Shearwater®
device). If this button is available, a confirmation dialog will be presented to ensure the Dive
Master does want to end assistance.
6.
End Send
- End any sending of divers to a specific latitude and longitude. A confirmation dialog
will be presented to ensure the Dive Master does want to end the operation.
