Apollo pico dive computer manual

Hold back cover in place with one finger and install the 5 screws in the appropriate holes, start the screws but do not tighten completely at this time. Tighten screws in order per figure 15, torque should be 3 KG-CM. It is very important to wait 10 minutes after battery change is complete before chamber testing the unit. If you use or test it in the water before the 10 minutes is up, it starts measuiring the depth with a wrong offset value and it will result in corrupt data being given.

Units that have integrated air pressure will show you a digital readout of the amount if air remaining in your tank. The readout is usually in increments of 1 to 10 PSI, check the manual for details. These computers are often a little more expensive and have more features. Most will also tell you your air consumption rate, and use that to calculate how long you can remain at the current depth given your current air consumption rate and the amount of air presently in your tank.

Most will then display this time, or the remaining no decompression time, which-ever is less. Newer computers are starting to incorporate a digital thermometer into the list of neat gadgets. This feature can range from a simple temperature readout on the display during the dive, to a system that logs temperature surface and bottom and also logs average temperature. Having this information may not be terribly important during a dive, but it is a nice addition to a dive log then, when you return to a spot, you can easily get an idea of local conditions before setting out on a trip.

Almost all of the current dive computers store information about a few dives that you can later recall. Research in decompression theory is continuing all the dive. Now that more and more divers are using computers, doctors can often examine a bent diver's profile and log information to help determine the cause of the bend deserved or undeserved and what the factors where leading to the hit.

Keep this in mind when looking at dive computers. DAN Divers' Alert Network has sponsored collection the log and profile data from volunteer divers in an effort increase the data from which research can be done.

Does this computer do decompression calculations? This does not mean that the computer is necessarily a decompression computer. Many of these computers will do emergency decompression: you can use them to help you get through emergency decompression if something happens during the dive to cause you to enter decompression mode, but they will not allow you to plan a decompression dive. Depending upon the computer, the level of decompression support may vary. If this is an important feature to you, you should look into this carefully before purchasing a computer.

NOTE : decompression diving is beyond the realm of sport diving. You need special training and equipment to be able to safely do decompression diving. If your computer or watch is not listed, write us an email stating manufacturer and model. Most likely we can change its battery. Return surface shipping and sales tax for Florida residents is additional.
