Delayed Violation Mode #3
(Fig. 99)
If you descend deeper than the Maximum Operating Depth of
330 feet (99.9 meters), the accumulated Tissue Loading Bar
Graph segments will flash, and the Current Depth and Max Depth
displays will only indicate 3 dashes ( - - - ) signifying that you are
Out of Range. The graphic message TOO > DEEP will scroll at
the top of the display.
Upon ascending above 330 feet (99.9 meters), the Current Depth
display will be restored, however Max Depth will only display 3
dashes for the remainder of that dive. Also, the Log for that dive
will display 3 dashes as the Max Depth achieved.
Immediate Violation Mode and Gauge Mode
If a Decompression Ceiling Stop Depth much greater than 60 feet
(18 meters) is required, an Immediate Violation Mode will be
entered. This situation would be preceded by entering Delayed
Violation Mode #2.
The ATOM would then operate with limited functions in Violation
Gauge Mode
during the remainder of that dive and for 24 hours
after surfacing. Gauge Mode turns the ATOM into a digital
instrument without any decompression or oxygen monitoring
functions.
