4. To reprogram the displayed menu values, bridge Contacts 1 & 2 with
wetted fingers. This will cause the current setting to flash or in the
case of multi-digit numbers, the least significant digit will flash. The
clock will toggle between on and off.
5. Using a coin or other conductive metal object, bridge Contacts 2 & 3 to
increment the numeric value. A confirmation beep will sound with
each increment.
6. Next using wetted finger, bridge Contacts 1 & 2 to select the next digit,
once selected the digit will flash to identify that it is being programmed.
Bridge Contacts 2 & 3 till the desired value is displayed.
7. Repeat step 5 until all digits have been programmed.
8. To save the changes that have been made bridge Contact 1 & 2 with a
coin or other conductive metal object. Once the next programming
option is displayed the changes have been saved.
All programming sequences use the same routine of using Contacts 1 and
2 to SELECT the next programming sequence and Contacts 2 and 3 to
INCREMENT the specified value.

TOUCH PROGRAMMING - PREDIVE PREDICTION:
PreDive Prediction is accessed via the Touch Contact Programming
Menu. This enables the diver to view the PreDive Prediction information at
the touch of the Contacts. During the PreDive Prediction Mode, the unit
will compute and display the maximum safe time and the calculated PO
2
value at that depth. The EMC-16’s PreDive Prediction starts at 30 feet
and increases in 10 feet increments. PreDive Predictions will terminate
when the No-Decompression (NDC) time prediction reaches two minutes
or a maximum depth of 320 feet is reached. Additional Conservatism,
Residual Nitrogen, blend #1 oxygen percentage and Barometric Altitude
can affect PreDive Predictions. Once the maximum PreDive Prediction
depth has been reached the unit will return to the Surface Interval.
TOUCH PROGRAMMING - INFORMATION DISPLAY:
The InFormation display is accessed via the Programming Mode. The
information presented will depend on the configuration of the dive
computer. The information in the upper right of screen indicates the unit is
in the Constant FO2 Mode and the number of gas blends the unit is
enabled for. The following table lists the identification and the description.

F1

F2

Battery voltage is displayed in the lower center of the screen as a two-digit
number with a decimal point. The screen will display the current CNS,
OTU and battery voltage. The current CNS exposure level is displayed on
the lower left as a two-digit number proceeded by a lower case “c”. The
current OTU value is displayed on the lower right again as a two-digit
number but preceded by a lower case “o”. Both the CNS and OTU values
are expressed as percentages. Figure 24a displays a typical InFormation
screen for a unit that is enabled for two nitrox blends.
TOUCH PROGRAMMING - DEPTH ALARM:
The Depth Alarm allows the
diver to select a maximum depth below which the diver does not wish to
descend before an alarm is issued. This depth can be set from 0 to 320
feet in one foot increments.
TOUCH PROGRAMMING - CONSERVATISM:
This programming function
allows the diver to input an added degree of Conservatism into the EMC-
16’s nitrogen algorithm. Via Touch Programming the Conservatism can be
set from 0 to 50%.
TOUCH PROGRAMMING - BLEND #1:
The oxygen percentage of Blend #1 can be programmed from 21.0% to
50.0%. Once programmed the oxygen percentage will remain at the value
programmed until changed by the user.
