How did my D4i get into Gauge (bottom timer) mode? The Dive mode has three choices: Air, Nitrox, Free. I don't understand how it got into this mode. Now I can't access any Dive mode except Free and the Plan mode is not showing up at all. No fly time was at 48 hrs when I surfaced.
I noticed something was weird when the computer did not acknowledge that I was at my safety stop. Another weird thing is that my DM has the same computer and she said hers was beeping at her like crazy for how quickly we ascended to our stop (not a good thing to hear from a DM, I know). I never heard any alarms from mine, so it must have been in this mode the whole dive? I admit that I'm new to this computer and was only looking at dive time and depth during the dive, so I didn't notice if any of the other displays were not the same as the regular Dive mode.
I've read the manual backwards and forwards, and there are a few references to this mysterious Gauge mode, but it is not shown as an option you can select anywhere.
I've searched pretty thoroughly here and elsewhere online and can't find the answer. I see that Chris@suunto told a guy with a D6 that he accidentally put his computer into Gauge mode, but, like I said, the D4i doesn't even have a gauge mode that you can select.
I uploaded my data to DM4. There it shows as a Gauge dive. What is up with this?
