Exiting the water
Once you are shallower than 0.6 meters / 2 feet, your KAON will go back into surface mode and offer
you access to surface menus.
However, for next few minutes, it will remain in post-dive mode. You can control length of this period,
in menu setting
. This means that if you resume your dive within that period,
it will be counted as continuation of previous dive, instead of a new one. This also means, that all the
numbers, such as maximum depth, average depth, dive time, etc. will not be reset.
After that, if you decide to dive again, it will be counted as a new dive.
Last dive information
When on the surface, and not in Sleep Mode, your KAON will display
information about the last dive that you have done.
Surface
– it is time elapsed since your last dive. If it is less than 24 hours, you will see the number of
hours and minutes. If it is more than 24 hours, you will see number of days and hours. If it is more than
10 days ago, you will not see any surface interval.
Last depth
– is the maximum depth of your last dive, with one decimal place. Depending on your unit
settings, it will be either in meters, or in feet, and you will see “m” or “ft” printed after the number.
Last time
– is the total time of the last dive, displayed according to your dive time settings – either as
total number of minutes, or as hours:minutes.
Altitude Compensation/Surface Pressure Adjustments
The KAON does not have a water sensor that can sense whether it is in the water based on “wetness”.
Instead, your KAON continuously tracks atmospheric pressure to determine the surface pressure at the
start of your dive. When it senses a sudden change in ambient pressure, it understands that you have
entered the water and that a dive is beginning.
Your KAON can generally distinguish between a sudden change in pressure caused by water entry, vs.
other types of sudden changes in pressure, such as a plane taking off, or driving up a mountain.
