Basic questions of CFII options

Some questions I have.

CF6 is that the value(pressure= depth)where the ostc wakes up if one has forgot to turn it on on the surface.?

What does CF7 do? The info in the wiki does not help me.

What does CF9 do? The info in the wiki does not help me.

The warning in CF17 is it acoustic?

Can you explain CF19 a little more?

Correct. By default it wakes up in 2.5m Depth. Pressure is sampled every 10sec. (Not adjustable) in Sleep mode. Many OSTC users prefer a smaller value like 1100mBar here.

The OSTC automatically compensates the Air pressure in sleep mode. Deco calculations are based on the surface pressure (Which is measured in sleep mode). To avoid that the OSTC compensates to a too high pressure (e.g. when the OSTC is stored in an air-sealed box). the limit can be set here. 1100mBar surface pressure should not happen anywhere on this planet, so we use this as the default.

The gradient factor is calculated even in ZH-L16 OC/CC modes in the background. It's displayed on the screen when it reaches this threshold.

> The warning in CF17 is it acoustic?
No, yellow LED+warning event in profile.

> Can you explain CF19 a little more?
It's also a ppO2 warning. When the ppO2 reaches the CF19-threshold the value is displayed in OC modes (In CC modes, it's displayed permanently), when it reaches the CF18-threshold the yellow LED is triggered additionally and a warning event is stored in the profile.
