PC INTERFACE
Interface with a PC is accomplished by connecting the ATOM
(Watch) to a PC USB port using the USB Interface Cable pro-
vided. The same Cable is used for Upload and Download.
There are 2 software programs on the CD together with a USB
Driver and a separate User Manual that can be printed for
personal use. The Settings Upload program is a convenient
method for entering Time, Alarm, and Utility settings into the
ATOM. The Data Download program is used to retrieve Data
that was sampled during dives and stored in the ATOM's
memory.
The ATOM checks for an External Access request once every
second while in the Watch Main Time. Checks are not made if
the unit is WET. For a connection to be made, the Interface
Cable is clipped onto the ATOM's Data Port and plugged into a
PC USB Port. To establish the connection, the PC program must
be running asking RUTHERE. When the connection is made, all
segments of the ATOM appear on the display (Fig. 2) until
completion of the Upload or Download operation.
• The ATOM reverts to the Main Time screen after completion
of the Upload or Download operation, or after 2 minutes if
no PC action was taken.
