VT3 Issue

[DiveRef]

My wife has a Oceanic VT3 Dive Computer, We have had it for about 5 years, We have done it this year for 2 weekends the first we had no issues, she has never hooked it up to a computer to download dives, so when we got home we synced it, got her dives off of it and it had an update so we did that. We took it out again last weekend to dive, and as soon as we got down at depth her alarms started going off, displaying "HI NI Go UP" mind you this was not even 2 mins into our first dive of the day, no drastic elevation changes, same spot we dove a month before the update and had no issues. Is there any way to resolve this without having to send it back to oceanic? Our last oceanic certified shop just closed its doors and I do not think the new shop does in house service. they would send it to you anyways.

Thank you

I also have a 5+ year old VT3, 615 dives/657 hours. I have never seen a firmware update for the VT3 and don't find one on the Oceanic website. I have been downloading to OceanLog the entire time. I have recently had a problem with OceanLog that I will describe separately

It sounds like her settings were changed when you synced it to the PC. Simply change the settings in the PC and re-sync or scroll thru the computer and re-set. I did have a problem like this when the computer was turned on in flight. It was showing HI NI GO UP at 5'. I don't think that is your problem but pulling the battery fixed that problem.
