ACTIVATION 

To activate the Pro Plus 3, press/release either button.

from 9 to 0.  It checks the display and voltage to ensure that everything is within tolerance.   

•  After manual activation, it will also check the ambient barometric pressure, and calibrate its present depth as 0.  

•  At elevations of 3,001 feet (916 meters) or higher, it will adjust depth calibration for the higher altitude. 

The Pro Plus 3 is configured with contacts located on the stems of the buttons and pins of the PC Data Port that will automatically 

activate the unit and cause it to enter dive mode when the contacts become wet and it senses depth of 5 FT (1.5 M).  

After activation and diagnostics, the Pro Plus 3 will enter NORM Surface Mode displaying the Main screen and allow access to 

the NORM Surface Menu.
