Why the depth meter function only until 10 mt?
-
The depth meter actualy misure only until 10 meters of depth.
It’s a problem of software setup (that could be improved by software development) or it’s related to the limit of the physical sensor?
For my diving activity (snorkeling in principal) I’ would really apreciate it the depth meter could misure deeper (15-20 mt).Marco

As far as I know, it is the sensor design. For the sensor to work both above and below water (water pressure is higher than air pressure) the underwater resolution has been limited to -10. Not sure if it can be changed just in software.

@isazi exactly this.
I have written something about it before:
