GAUGE MODE
Underwater, the Gauge Mode is a continuation of the Immediate Violation
Mode that turns the DataTrans Plus into a digital instrument without any de-
compression or oxygen monitoring functions (Fig. 98). The Tissue Loading
Bar Graph and O21 Bar Graph flash, while the Message Box flashes VIOLA-
TION. The numeric Dive Time Remaining will be absent from the screen.
The Alternate Dive Mode may still be accessed underwater by pressing the Se-
lect/Right button.
After surfacing, Gauge Mode does not provide the FO2, Plan, or Time to Fly
features. A countdown timer beginning 10 minutes after the dive at 23:50
(hr:min) with a “triple dash” display (Fig. 99) will inform you of the time re-
maining before normal DataTrans Plus operation can resume with full fea-
tures and functions.
PERMANENT VIOLATION
Entering the Immediate Violation Mode, then Gauge Mode, will result in loss
of all DataTrans Plus decompression and oxygen monitoring functions for 24
hours after that dive. This condition is considered a Permanent Violation.
