One atmosphere of freshwater is 34 feet (10.3 meters)
Before going diving, set the computer to the type of water you
are diving in. This allows for the most accurate calculations with
respect to no-decompression limits, etc.
To set for fresh or salt water use:
1. Press Mode until the arrow points to D.S. at the bottom of
the screen.
2. Press Lock.
3. Press Select until “fresh” or “sea” is flashing.
4. Press Set to toggle between fresh and sea water.
5. When finished, press Select to advance to the next option
(dive profile sampling rate) or press Lock.
Setting the dive profile sampling rate
The NiTek Plus allows you to choose how frequently it samples
and stores depth data. The data it samples and stores is used in
profile mode or when the data is uploaded to a personal
computer. There are two sampling rates to choose from, 15-
second and 30-second.
The 15-second sampling rate enables the computer to sample and
store depth data every 15 seconds during a dive. The 15-second
sampling rate provides a more detailed dive profile, but because
it stores more information, fewer dives can be stored.
The 30-second sampling rate enables the computer to sample and
store depth data every 30 seconds during a dive. The 30-second
sampling rate is the computer’s “default” setting. The 30-second
rate provides a less detailed dive profile, but it is capable of
storing more information for more dives.
Note:
When the computer’s memory storage is full, it overwrites
the oldest dive profile data stored with the new information.
To set the dive profile sampling rate:
1. Press Mode until the arrow points to D.S. at the bottom of
the screen.
