DIVE COMPUTER PERFORMANCE
• Buhlmann ZHL-16c based Z+, or DSAT based, algorithm
• No Deco limits closely follow PADI RDP
• Decompression in agreement with Buhlmann ZHL-16c and French MN90
• No Deco Deep Stops - Morroni, Bennett
• Deco Deep Stops (not recommended) - Blatteau, Gerth, Gutvik
• Altitude - Buhlmann, IANTD, RDP (Cross)
• Altitude corrections and O2 limits based on NOAA tables
OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE
Function: Accuracy:
• Depth ±1% of full scale
• Timers 1 second per day
Dive Counter:
• Displays Dives #1 to 12
• Resets to Dive #1, upon diving (after 24 hours with no dives)
Altitude:
• Operational from sea level to 14,000 feet (4,270 meters) elevation
• Measures ambient pressure every 30 minutes when inactive, upon activation, every 15 minutes while activated.
• Does not measure ambient pressure when Wet.
• Compensates for Altitudes above sea level beginning at 3,001 feet (916 meters) elevation and every 1,000 feet (305 meters) higher.
Power:
• (1) 3 vdc, CR2430, Lithium battery (Panasonic or equivalent)
• Shelf life Up to 5 years (dependent on battery manufacturer)
• Replacement User (annual recommended)
• Use Life 100 dive hours if (1) 1 hour dives per dive day to 300 hours if (3) 1 hour dives per day
Battery Icon:
• Warning - icon on solid at 2.75 volts, Battery change recommended
• Alarm - icon on ashing at 2.50 volts, change the Battery
Activation:
• Manual - push button (recommended).
• Automatic - when wet.
• Cannot be manually activated deeper than 4 FT (1.2 M).
• Cannot operate at elevations higher than 14,000 feet (4,270 meters)
Operating Temperature:
• Out of the water - between 20 °F and 140 °F (-6 and 60 °C).
• In the water - between 28 °F and 95 °F (-2 and 35 °C).
