Suunto VYTEC DS manual Making the Vytec personal, Push Buttons

The timekeeping display is the default display of the instrument (Fig. 2.1.). If a button is not pressed within 5 minutes, the dive computer beeps and returns to the timekeeping display automatically (except in Diving and Simula- tion modes). The timekeeping display shuts off after two hours, but pressing the PLAN or TIME button activates it.

Making the Vytec personal

For best use of the Vytec take some time and make it YOUR computer.

Set the correct time and date. Read this manual. Set dive alarms and make all the other settings listed in the introduction in this manual. Install the Vytec in your console or fit it on your wrist. If the Vytec is to be used with the optional wire- less pressure transmitter install it and enable the pressure transmission in the Vytec’s set- tings. Try the pressure transmission.

Use the dive simulator for getting to know the dive display

All this so you know your computer and have it set up as you want it before getting into the water.

2.2. PUSH BUTTONS

The dive computer has easy-to-use push buttons and an advisory display, which guides the user. The SMART (MODE) button is the key to the system. The two scroll buttons, PLAN and TIME, are used for scrolling up and down the menus and to show the alterna- tive displays. The dive computer is controlled with these three push buttons as follows (see Fig. 2.2.).
