My Veo 2.0 has served me well during my last 180 dives though for some reason the history shows 599min as my longest dive (which is inpossible as I have never stayed under water that long) and the highest altitude dive at El4 (possibly because I once turned it on on board a airplane, though it should not have recorded a dive)
I tried to contact support via e-mail but the address in the manual does not seem to be correct any more, so I will paste my questions here
as I am reading about high altitude diving at the time I have reread the manual
for my Veo 2.0 in German (and because I thought I might have misunderstood
some of it I read it in English, too)
On page 97 the adaptation to altitude is described, but I cannot interpret
the sentence
"At Sea Level, calculations are based upon an Altitude of 6,000 feet"
I would have thought the calculations should be based upon an altitude of zero
feet at sea level and the capitalization in the sentence suggests an error in
translation.
Can the Veo be used as a bottom timer (in Gauge mode) at altitudes above 14,000
feet? I do not expect to dive at that extreme altitude, but would like to know
all the same.
Another question arises concerning the measurement of barometric pressure (and
hence altitude) upon switching on the unit: what happens if the measurements
are not within the range of 1ft?
Which pressure is assumed? 1.013mbar? 1.000mbar? the last correctly measured pressure? Is there an error message?
