In other words, IWR for your computer :-)

This is something that always annoys me about the Aladdin computers, that
they lock up when 'bent'. It's always put me off buying one.

I have a Suunto Solution which beeps a couple of times when you first
violate its ceiling, and then it just flashes 'Error' intermittently. It
still works as a computer. However, the big drawback of using the Solution
as a depth gauge & timer is the lack of any display of maximum depth
attained other than the bar graph on the left side of the display, which is
useless over 42m.

Does anyone know what the Bridge does in this situation?

Regards, Andy
