Hi,

My VT3 is sitting on my kitchen table and is reading 2.1 meter depth.
I landed yesterday, the vt3 traveled in the original box. As usual, the pressure inside the box is lower than ambient after the plane, I have to open it with a fork.
I am not sure if the computer was on during the flight or if turned himself on when I opened the box. However, I am sure it is perfectly dry.

How do I reset the depth meter?
Should I deep it in my bath, hoping it will detect the 50 cm of water?
How do I turn the vt3 off?

Sending it back to the shop would be a pain as I plan to dive tomorrow.
I would like to see an updated version of the firmware, with a small line saying: if (not wet and depth<0) then reset depth meter.

Thanks,

Vincent.
 
Try pulling battery for 15 min. Fixes some problems.
