Hi Hendrik. I hope you have a had a good festive season and best regards to you and your family for the New year.
Haven';t been able to dive the new firmware ( and indeed its latest minor update) we blew a boat engine and had to abandon the day.
I will get in the water early next month (Jan) and have a look at he multi gas to see how it's changed (I'm guessing the way it totals your consumption and gas time knowing multiple gas pressures?
I got caught out on the new update, I was asked to help the Police with their new Eon's - I'd had DM5 minimizes on my computer so it didn't tell me about the new firmware. A sI was walking out of the door I saw the Suunto email, turned around and started again on their 3 units.
My wish list for new updates is still similar as before
Alarms - allow me to select which I want rather than all on or off.
Tones - Different tone set options. I often dive with 3 others who have Eon's you hear their warnings and look at your wrist.
Water sensor Grrr!! please allow us to turn it off. twice now my comp has stayed on all night. I wash with fresh water post dive and gently blow to dry - if I don't the comp stays on. I would prefer a button press to turn on and the pressure sensor to turn off.
Maybe a button press from surface screen to turn machine off?
Pod management. On of my pods (brought in Aug) has gone back due to a battery issue - I think its one of the bad batch that slipped through the net. No issue. However my wife and I now have 6 pods between us - all on quick disconnects. I have painted the last 4 digits of the serial number on each on to help identification and to ensure we set the correct gas to the correct TX. Its a pain. A user Nickname for each pod would be great.
Still on Pod batteries. to see the battery level of each pod is a faff - if its paired it just says OK so you have to go deeper into the menu. A surface screen would be nice (or 1st level menu screen) where each paired po was shown with its assigned gas, pressure and battery status just one place to look.
I do like the new planner, I didn't think I'd use it but I do if only to re affirm my choices and plan.
I like the timer screen
The button flip is good although I never had an issue even though I wear my comp on my RH wrist
I like being the choice now of deep stop on or off and safety stop depth and time (I still have deep stop on) and SS as defaults.
Will update again after my next dive
