Delayed Violation Mode #3 (Fig. 54)
If you descend deeper than 330 feet (99.5 meters),
the Nitrogen Bar Graph will flash, and the Current Depth
and Max Depth displays will only indicate 3 dashes ( - - -).
Upon ascending above 330 feet (99.5 meters), the Current
Depth display will be restored, however Max Depth will
only display 3 dashes for the remainder of that dive. The
Log for that dive will also only indicate 3 dashes as the Max
Depth achieved.
Immediate Violation Mode and Gauge Mode
WARNING: The XP 5 enters Immediate Violation
Mode when a situation totally exceeds its ca-
pacity to predict an ascent procedure. These
dives represent gross excursions into decom-
pression that are beyond the boundaries and
spirit of the XP 5 design, and an XP 5 should
not be used for the dives.
During a Dive, if a ceiling much greater than 60FT (18M) is
required, an Immediate Violation Mode will be entered.
This situation would be preceded by entering Delayed Vio-
lation Mode #2, previously described. The ATMOS 2 would
then operate with limited functions in Gauge Mode during
the remainder of that dive and for 24 hours after surfacing.
