Software Version 4.00 & Display SW 2.10

Finally big upgrade, but unfortunately, still no FW 4.00 for my Descent MK1. At the moment I only got the Display SW upgrade (from 2.00) to 2.10!
Does anyone know what's new at 2.10?

About SW 4.00: extensive upgrade and the corrections of errors. Hardly wait for this upgrade especially because at the end of August I leave for one week diving in Egypt.
  • Only 20% of user will have it so far.
  • I am aware of this fact!
    But the last time, at v2.60, I was among the first 20%!
  • V2.60 was 50% for the first lot of users.
  • Still wish they’d allow to disable “dive” mode for 1-3 hours then have it automatically re-enable after a set time. I have over 200 dives just teaching in a pool.
  • Odie21 We are still looking into your feature request and how best to do it. Until that time, the best option would be to start a Swim Activity since you would be able to discard the activity's information after your teaching time in the pool is over.

    Another option that might work for you is using the Apnea Dive option, which will group all those dives into one saved activity.
  • Update to v4.00 completed!

    New "numbers":
    Descent MK1: FW: 4.00, DSP: 2.10, GPS: 4.40, BLE/ANT/SNS 6.00, WiFi: 2.40, CIQ: 2.4.1, WHR 20.03.27, HRM RUN: 6.60
  • I've had this error since last night!

    Dive Setup/Autostart (on/off) and off can be factory set to 2 or 3 hours and automatically re-enable after that set time.

    I also have this problem, when jumpinh into water for a swim, the Mk1 starts a diving activity.
    @Garmin-Heath: If a swim activity is started, then the Mk1 will not go into a diving activity when jumping into water even if the watch goes below 1,2 meters?
    If so, does it have to be a swim activity to disable the watch from enter diving mode, or will any actvity do?
