    Suunto D Series in Gauge Mode -

    Hi Folks, can anyone help with this - I have a Suunto D9TX and have only used it in Air Mode with an integrated sensor.

    If I dive using it in Gauge mode I assume I will still get a reading from the tank sensor, and will get depth, temperature and time reaings but will the D9 still record the profile and data for the dive so it can then be downloaded onto my computer?

    And will pressure and depth alarms set in the personal settings still sound?

    Anyone know please - cheers P

    OK - answered my own questions yesterday. Still get tank pressure and depth etc. the dive log function still works so you have a profile and air usage to download, but didn't dive deep enough etc. to see if the alarms still worked. Will set the limits a bit lower on my next dives and see. Cheers P.
