My guess is that cal is some variant of "calibrate" and CKSM is some variant of "checksum." You may want to ask this in the manufacturer's forum. It sounds like a problem that needs to be addressed at the factory level.
I've had my T3 for 9 years or so and have never seen those codes come up.

Hi Jim,

Let me say that I am 87% joking when I say this:

The best way to fix your Aeris product is to throw it away and purchase something new. Perhaps a Demo unit, TUSA Zen Air Integrated computer system for only $599......

Seriously though, if your computer is acting up like that, AUP has a pretty great warranty / service program for their computers. If not covered by warranty, you can generally have them do a factory service on the computer for $100 or so that basically puts you in a brand new computer. I would give them a call....

Well I kind of agree with the joke part of the post. I will send it in when I get home. The dive shop was nice enough to loan me a spare cobra. So I am ok for this trip but.....
