See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the
product box for product warnings and other important
information.
Installation and Setup
CAUTION
To ensure proper setup and best performance, it is strongly
recommended that you complete the first time installation and
setup at a dive shop. You should fully test the transmitter
installation above and below water before using it during a dive.
Transmitter Position Tips
The transmitter communicates wirelessly with your compatible
dive computer. On the surface, it uses ANT ® technology.
Underwater, it uses a sonar signal. Your body, drysuit, and dive
equipment can obstruct the signal, particularly while underwater.
For the best reception, all transmitters in your group should have
clear lines of sight to the dive computer. To help prevent
blocking the signal with your body or equipment, you should
follow these tips.
• You should install the transmitter at least 7 cm (3 in.) from
your body.
• You should install the transmitter on the same side of the
tank as the wrist wearing your dive computer. For example, if
you wear your dive computer on your left wrist, you should
install the transmitter on the left side of the tank regulator.
• For the best reception, you should wear the tank high on your
back. This allows the transmitter to have a clear line of sight
over your shoulders.
• If you wear your tank inverted with the regulator at the
bottom, you can use a high-pressure hose to relocate the
transmitter to have a clear line of sight over your shoulders.
• If you lose the signal from your transmitter, you should move
your arm until the signal is restored.
• If you lose the signal from another diver, you should change
your body position until the signal is restored. If your body is
between the dive computer and another diver, it may obstruct
the signal from that diver's transmitter.
Installing the Transmitter on Your Tank
Regulator
WARNING
Always use the pre-installed flow restrictor when using the
transmitter directly attached to your regulator. Always use the
included air spool when connecting the transmitter to a high
pressure hose extension ( Installing the Transmitter on a High
Pressure Hose Extension , page 2 ). Using the transmitter
without either the flow restrictor or air spool could result in
serious injury or death from an air pressurization failure.
Before you install the transmitter on your tank regulator, you
should read the transmitter position tips and choose the port
position that provides the best line of sight to the dive computer.
To install the transmitter, you need a
5
/
8
in. (16 mm) open-ended
wrench.
The transmitter connects to a high pressure output port of the
first-stage regulator.
1
Confirm the regulator is depressurized and detached from a
scuba cylinder.
2 Remove the port plug from the high pressure output port of
the first-stage regulator.
3
Confirm the flow restrictor is installed in the transmitter.
4
Screw the transmitter onto the high pressure output port until
you feel resistance.
WARNING
Verify the installed transmitter does not physically interfere
with any hoses or other tank assemblies.
5
Use a
5
/
8
in. (16 mm) wrench to tighten the transmitter.
