Water Alarm (Optional)
If you have the optional water alarm installed there are three alarm conditions to know:
Condition LED
Siren
New Battery
(Insertion)
Bright Intense blink while
siren plays
Ascending tones played 4 times
Water Intrusion
Bright Intense Blink
Warble sound. Alarm will sound for
duration of detection.
Low Battery
Low Intensity fast blink
Descending tones played 8 times
pausing approx. 20 seconds between
plays after alarm test or water detection.
The alarm can tested anytime by shorting the detection contacts that lead to the water
alarm transducer. The water detection condition will activate for 6 seconds. If the battery
is drained the low battery condition will sound.
The water alarm requires a single 6V battery like Radio Shack model 23-469 or A544.
Your battery should be removed when stored (e.g. between dive trips). Check the
battery prior to every dive to ensure proper operation. Change when indicated.
CAUTION
: You must wait a minimum of 30 seconds between battery insertions to
allow the unit to fully discharge.
