Suunto VYTEC DS manual Wireless Transmitter Battery Indicator, Dive Planning Plan

Page 22

If the battery symbol is displayed in the Surface mode or if the display is faded or weak, the battery may be too low to operate the dive computer and battery replacement is recommended.

NOTE! For safety reasons the backlight cannot be activated when the low battery warning is indicated by the battery symbol.

3.1.2.2. Wireless Transmitter Battery Indicator

The pressure transmitter sends out a lowbat (LOBT) warning when its battery voltage is getting low. This is shown intermittently instead of the pressure reading (see chapter 2.4.3, Fig 2.6). When you get this warning the pressure transmitter battery needs to be replaced.

3.1.3. Dive Planning [PLAN]

To enter Planning Mode, press the PLAN button at any time during Sur- face Mode. After showing the text “PLAN” (Fig. 3.6.), the display will show the no-decompression limit for the depth of 9 m [30 ft]. By pressing the down arrow (t) (TIME) button, the dive computer will calculate and show the next deeper no-decompression limits in 3 m [10 ft] increments ending at 45 m [150 ft]. By pressing the up arrow (s) (PLAN) button, the next shallower depth will be shown again.

The Planning Mode is canceled by pressing the SMART (QUIT) button.

NOTE! The Planning mode is disabled in Gauge mode and in Error mode (see section 3.9. ”Error Conditions”). The planning mode calculates no dec times for MIX1 only. If additional mixes are enabled in the Nitrox mode they do not affect the calculations in PLAN mode.

Higher Altitude and conservative Personal Adjustment Modes will shorten the no-decompression time limits. These limits at different Altitude and Personal Adjustment Mode selections are shown in Table 6.1 and 6.2 in section 6.1. ”Operating Principles”.

The Planning mode also accounts for the following information from pre- vious dives:

•any calculated residual nitrogen

•all dive history for the past four days

•oxygen toxicity (Nitrox mode)

The no-decompression times given for different depths will therefore be shorter than before your ﬁrst “fresh” dive.

DIVE NUMBERING SHOWN DURING DIVE PLANNING

Dives belong to the same repetitive dive series, if the instrument was still counting down the no-ﬂy time at the beginning of the dive.
