How to reset the mk2 when in dive mode?

Bei meinem letzten Heimflug vom Tauchurlaub habe ich immer wieder auf die mbar Anzeige gesehen, um den Druck im Flugzeug zu beobachten. Zudem habe ich gemütlich die Tauchgänge der Safari durchgesehen, so geschah es, dass ich bei 750 mbar => 1000mbar den mk2 eingschaltet hatte. Ich habe davon gelesen, dass er dann tauchen anfängt, jetzt fragt sich nur, wie ich wieder raus komme. Jedenfalls macht er nun schon seit 3 Tagen den längsten, flachsten Tauchgang der Welt ;)
Firmware ist 1.70

Hello,

Did you try the magic Reset ?
Take a small magnet, and pass it on the back of the OSTC.

Haben Sie die Magie Reset versucht ?
Nehmen Sie einen kleinen Magneten, und leitet ihn an der Rückseite des OSTC.
(Sorry, Google's german is better than mine :) )

Magic Reset with a magnet? Well Just tried it with the magnet on my shaker -I can feel the battery inside so the magnet's field reaches into the computer but no effect.
Btw. 3 days+ on a dive is nice - the battery is quite stable :)

after round 4 days of diving the battery went down to 2.530V and the mk.2 switched off - he showed some error message on recharge and is now functional again. Still I would want to know, how to reset it when in dive mode.

Hallo,

There are only three options:
- bring the unit back to 750mBar
- Reset with the magnet trick - but this only works with attached USB power
- Remove/re-install battery

Regards,
Matthias
