atmos 2 on and off

[ecudiver]

hey guys just got my atmos 2 in from scuba toys and absolutely love it. the only question is how do i turn it off? i cant figure it out and the guide states 2 hours but can that be right?

Why can't that be right? I never clocked them but ours stay live for a reasonable surface interval.

yea true 2 hrs just seems to be a long time. figured the battery would die quickly but maybe not

The Atom 2.0 is a watch as well as a DC. So it will remain on after the dive and continue working in the wrist watch mode as well as count the de-sat and no-fly times -- thus there is no real way of turning it off.

Send 30 euros to my paypal account and I'll turn it off by remote control in another hour or so.

The reason for the 2 hours is so that it will stay on for the length of most surface intervals. As long as you splash back in within 2 hours after surfacing from your last dive, you computer will still be on.

...yeah but the Atom 2.0 is ALWAYS on Since it is a watch AND a dive computer, it will never turn off. What you said above might be true for a non watch DC but not for the Atom 2.0

your atmos will stay on after a dive until your 24 hour flight count is complete (FLY 23:50) max. It keeps track of your surface interval until your desaturation time is over DSAT . it will flip back and forth between FLY and SAT until you are again a desaturated diver then it will only display FLY. If you just turned it on and do not dive it will stay on for 2 hours and then deactivate (page 25 of the manual) Batteries last a few years and are about $5
