NOTE:
The following chapter deals with the characteristics of CCR diving.
Aladin TEC 3H enables you to switch between 2 different ppO
2
settings during the same CCR dive
(setpoints SP1 and SP2).
In addition a Bail-Out gas mixture can be used which allows to switch from CCR diving to open circuit
diving.
4.11.1 Preparation for the CCR dive
You have to check the settings of Aladin TEC 3H especially before the first dive. All settings can be
checked and changed directly at Aladin TEC 3H or via LogTRAK.
Switching the CCR option on and off
In order to enable CCR diving you must turn on the CCR option in the SET 1 menu ->68.
4.11.2 Setting the ppO
2
and gas mixture
WARNING
Before every dive and after changing the tank, make sure that the settings for the gas mixture correspond with
the current mixture used. An incorrect setting causes Aladin TEC 3H to miscalculate this particular dive. If the
fraction of oxygen is set too low this can lead to oxygen poisoning without warning. If the value is set too high
decompression sickness may occur. Inaccuracies in the calculations are carried over to repetitive dives.
Setting the Setpoints SP1 and SP2
During dives with two setpoint settings the SP1 contains the lower fraction of oxygen. Aladin TEC 3H
will only accept settings corresponding with this order.
To set the setpoints SP1 and SP2, Aladin TEC 3H must be in user mode (time of day display).
Procedure:
1. Push
or
until the SP1 menu appears.
2. Confirm that you wish to change the SP1 settings by pushing
