WET CONTACTS
The Wet Contact Dive Mode Activation feature is active any time
W T ACTIVATION is set ON.
The PIC is configured with contacts that will automatically
activate Dive Mode when the space between the contacts is
bridged by a conductive material (immersed in water) and it
senses a Depth of 5 FT (1.5 M).
The contacts are the pins of the PC Interface Data Port and the
stems of the Push Buttons.
As long as the contacts are bridged on the Surface, the graphic
W T will alternate with the Day of Week graphic (MON - SUN)
on the Watch MAIN TIM (Fig. 85) and ALT TIM displays and
the graphics NORM and S A (or L2 to L13) on the NORM
SURF MAIN screen (Fig. 86). Also on the GAUG and FR
SURF MAINs.
Upon removing the bridge between the contacts (drying the
PIC), the graphic W T will no longer be displayed.
The PIC will continue checking for Depth, until a dive is made
or it reverts to the Local Default Time screen after 2 hours.
