Ok... couple of things.
I have read the manual quite carefully for the Atom 1.0. I quote:
"In the event that ATR becomes less than NDC and O2 Time, after 1 minute the Audible Alarm will sound, the LED will flash, and the message VIEW > AIR will scroll at the top for 10 seconds as an alert. Alternate Display #1 will appear with the Pressure value flashing"
This says to me that when ATR is less than NDC and O2 Time, I should be seeing Alternate Display #1 (air time and pressure).
I have PM'd Larry and Joe from Scubatoys, and have verified that they were mistaken about one of their main points in favour of the way that the Atom 1.0 handles this. They have posted a couple of times on how they like the fact that the main number that the Atom 1.0 shows you is the amount of time that you still have at your current depth... whether that be NDC, O2 or ATR. They had assumed that the Atom 1.0 handled this in the same way that many of the other Pelagic computers do, which I believe we all know now not to be true.
Is there any way that Oceanic can produce a firmware load for the Atom 1.0 that would make it behave the way the manual implies that it will, and the way that Larry and Joe from ScubaToys have spoken out in favour of quite clearly?
