Anyway to reset it?

Don't get too upset, it could be worse. Hell I don't even bother syncing my computer. As long as the computer works it's not the end of the world. My aladin prime broke and it's been in the shop for a few weeks, back to the tables and I've been fine

Donno if it has something to reset, but defenetly no clear way in the manual, i even tried to remove the battery but nothing happened.

well, thanks anyhow, it seems one should always never fully depend on new tech devices, and it will always be so important to never forget how to use the tables.
thanks again.

Fully agree, sometimes new technology doesn't alway work. After my computer turned off twice during a dive, I brought it in. I've been using a old depth gauge and pressure gauge I had and it's worked fine. I don't normally do numerous dives in one day so I haven't missed a computer except for the assent rate.

And of course you know all you have to do is watch your smallest bubble to know that.

[hbh2oguard]

yea that's what I've been do, and also going up as fast as my buddy with a computer(yes I know you shouldn't use another persons computer) because blablabla but I haven't had any problems.

So with that idea, I guess you will continue to do it unitll you do have a problem? Well what then?

[hbh2oguard]

no not untill I have a problem, untill I get my computer back from the shop.
