WARNING: This manual DOES NOT replace an adequate diving training !
- Moon phase
The new moon is displayed in black color and the full moon is displayed in white color.
The number under the picture of the moon of today indicates the AGE of the moon. ( The age is the number of days passed since the last
new moon, the lunar phase cycle (from new Moon to new Moon) is 29.5 days)
- Atmospheric Pressure expressed in millibar
The Atmospheric pressure is the one present in any point of the terrestrial atmosphere. It is measured in millibar (mbar)
Attention: after diving, owing to the humidity on the sensor’s location, the read pressure might be slightly lower than the real one.
- Barometric alitmeter
The height above the sea level is calculated on the basis of the barometric pressure.
Attention: The altitude detection through the barometer can be affected by the presence of humidity in the sensor area.
In case of case of bad weather or after diving, the error might also be of +/-80m.
Temperature: The temperature measured by the iDive Color is the device’s case temperature itself. For this reason, when wearing it at your
wrist, it will measure a higher temperature than the environmental one.
To measure the temperature outside the water, unwear the computer and wait at least 20 minutes.
When diving, up to 5 minutes might be necessary to measure the correct temperature.
- Weather forecast: the blue lines indicate the atmospheric pressure, the higher they are, the higher is the atmospheric pressure shown, so
the best weather is supposed to be. The weather forecast is based on the monitoring of the atmospheric pressure during the previous 18
hours. An altitude change involves an atmospheric pressure change. An altitude change (+/- 50 mt) may cause inaccuracies in the weather
forecast.
After an altitude change of +/- 50 mt, the weather forecast will be reliable again after 3/5 hours at the new altitude.
Attention: after diving, the humidity in the sensor’s area may compromise the weather forecast.
