ACTIVATION
WARNING: If the unit is activated at elevations
higher than 14,000 feet (4,267 meters), it will per-
form a diagnostic check and immediately shutdown.
To Activate the Veo 200/250, press and release the Left/Front
(Advance) Button.
Upon manual activation, the unit will enter Diagnostic
Mode (Fig. 14), displaying all segments of the LCD as 8's,
followed by dashes (- -), then a countdown from 9 to 0.
Diagnostic Mode checks the display and Battery voltage to
ensure that everything is within tolerance and functioning
properly.
When the Right/Side (Select) button is held depressed
when the Diagnostic countdown reaches 00, an External
Access request is initiated. A Serial Number screen ap-
pears displaying the units Serial Number and firmware
code Revision Number as long as the button is held de-
pressed (Fig. 15). Upon releasing the button, the unit shuts
Off.
After manual activation, it will also check the ambient
barometric pressure, and calibrate its present depth as
zero. At elevations of 2,000 feet (610 meters) or higher, it
will recalibrate itself to measure depth in feet of fresh water
instead of feet of sea water.
