The RATIO iX3M 2 is equipped with color visual, acoustic and vibrating alarms
Did you know?
The RATIO iX3M 2 series has been the wolrd first dive computer to have a vibration
alarm
TYPE:
Set the alarms that you want to use:
SOUND:
Use the acoustic alarm only. (“beep”) (iX3M 2 will not VIBE)
VIBE:
Use the vibrating alarm only. (“buzz”) (iX3M 2 will not SOUND)
BOTH:
Use the both vibrating and acoustic alarm.
NONE:
iX3M 2 will not use vibrating alarm and acoustic alarm (not suggested)
Helpful tip:
The hearing of some people is more sensitive to high frequencies (beep), while the hearing of some
other is more sensitive to low frequencies (buzz); the vibration, apart from the “physical vibration” itself, has also the
aim of creating a low-frequency sound. It is then common that some people are more sensitive to piercing sounds
produced by the beeper and some others to the one produced by the vibration.
ASC Speed:
It activates/deactivates the alarm in case of ascending too fast.
MOD:
It activates/deactivates the alarm in case of passing the MOD of the mix you are currently breathing.
GAS RES:
iX3M 2 activates the alarm when the pressure of the main tank is below the RES value
(settable in the TRANSMITTER menu).

BOTH =
