This model is merely a way to apply a limited set of data to a large range of expe-riences. The XP 5 dive computer model is based upon the latest research and experiments in de-compression theory. Still, using the XP 5, just as using the Navy (or other) No Decom-pression Tables, is no guarantee of avoiding decompression sickness, the bends. Every diver s physiology is different, and can even vary from day to day. No machine can pre-dict how your body will react to a particular dive 2 DECOMPRESSION 2 FEATURES AND 7 CONTROL BUTTONS.

The XP 5 is intended for use by recreational divers who have successfully completed anationally recognized course in scuba diving, and diving with enriched nitrogen-oxygen(nitrox) mixtures.

5 It must not be used by untrained persons who may not have knowledge of the potential risksand hazards of scuba diving, and diving with nitrox. You must obtain scuba certification, and certification in diving with nitrox before usingthe XP 5, if you have not already done so. It is NOT for use by military and commercial divers. It should NOT be utilized for any competitive, or repetitive square wave or unplanned decom-pression diving, it is intended solely for recreational use and multilevel diving. As with all underwater life support equipment, improper use or misuse of this product cancause serious injury or death. Conduct your dives in such a manner so as to insure that you continuously check thecomputer's proper function. If you do not fully understand how to use this dive computer, or if you have any questions,you should seek instruction in its use from your authorized AERIS dealer before you utilizethis product.

6 Never participate in sharing or swapping of a dive computer. Doing so may result in injury ordeath. If you exceed certain limits, the XP 5 will not be able to tell you how to get safely back tothe surface. These situations exceed tested limits and can result in loss of some XP 5functions for 24 hours after the dive in which a Violation occurred. The XP 5 enters Immediate Violation Mode when a situation totally exceeds its capacity topredict an ascent procedure. These dives represent gross excursions into decompres-sion that are beyond the boundaries and spirit of the XP 5 design. If you are followingthese dive profiles, SEEMANN advises you not to use an XP 5 dive AND SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS7 FEATURES and DISPLAYS8 WELCOME TO SEEMANN !ANDTHANK YOU FOR CHOOSING THE XP 5 !

7 Your XP 5 presents the information that you need before, during, and after your air (ornitrox) dives using a combination of easy to read displays and identification icons. Itcan also be set to operate simply as a digital depth gauge/timer. This instructionalguide is intended to help you become familiar with the functions and features availableand show you examples of displays that you could expect to see in the various opera-tional modes. Relax and read through the complete owner's that the rules you learned in your basic scuba certification course(s) stillapply to the diving you will do while using a dive computer - some will become evenmore important. Technology is no substitute for common sense, and a dive computeronly provides the person using it with data, not the knowledge to use the XP 5 can be used when diving with either Air or Nitrox, the term BreathingGas is used in this manual.

8 Breathing Gas is the gaseous mixture breathed during a dive. Air is a breathing gas that contains approximately 21% oxygen and 79% nitrogen(nature's common nitrogen-oxygen mixture). Nitrox is a nitrogen-oxygen breathing gas that contains a higher fraction of oxygen(22 to 50%) than BUTTONSThe two Control Buttons allow you to select display options, access specificinformation when you want to see it, and activate the Front button is named Advance (Fig. 1a) and the Side button Select (Fig. 1b).BAR GRAPHSN itrogen Bar GraphThe Nitrogen Bar Graph (Fig. 1c) represents tissue loading of nitrogen, showing yourrelative no decompression or decompression status. As your depth and elapsed divetime increase, segments will add to the Graph, and as you ascend to shallowerdepths, the Bar Graph will begin to recede, indicating that additional no decompressiontime is allowed for multilevel Nitrogen Bar Graph monitors 12 different nitrogen com-partments simultaneously and displays the one that is incontrol of your dive.

9 It is divided into a green NoDecompression (normal) zone, a yellow Caution zone (alsoNo Decompression), and a red Decompression (danger) you cannot provide a guarantee against the occur-rence of decompression sickness, you may choose yourown personal zone of caution based upon age, physique,excessive weight, etc., to reduce the statistical 1 - Buttons and NiBG abc10 Oxygen (O2) Accumulation Bar GraphThe O2 Bar Graph (Fig. 2a) represents oxygen loading,your relative oxygen tolerance dosage (OTU), showing themaximum of either per dive accumulated oxygen, or 24 hourperiod accumulated oxygen. As your accumulation in-creases during the dive, segments will add to the BarGraph, and as loading decreases, it will begin to recede, in-dicating that additional exposure is : Displays associated with oxygen andthe O2 Bar Graph will only appear if FO2 hasbeen set at a value other than 'Air'.

10 Variable Ascent Rate IndicatorThe Variable Ascent Rate Indicator (Fig. 2b) provides avisual representation of ascent speed ( , an ascentspeedometer). Green is a 'normal' rate, yellow a 'caution'rate, and red is 'Too Fast'. The segments of the VariableAscent Rate Indicator represent 2 sets of speeds whichchange at a reference depth of 60 feet (18 meters). Referto the chart for segment : At depths greater than 60 feet (18m), ascent rates should not exceed 60 feet perminute (18 mpm). At depths of 60 feet (18 m)and shallower, ascent rates should not exceed30 feet per minute (9 mpm).Fig. 2 - O2BG & VARIV ariable Ascent Rate IndicatorDeeper than 60 feet (18 m)SegmentsAscent Rate =DisplayedFPMMPM00-200 - 6121-30 >60>1860 feet (18 m) & ShallowerSegmentsAscent Rate =DisplayedFPMMPM00-100 - 3111-15 5-6321-25 8-95>30>9b 11 INFORMATIONAL DISPLAYSEach numeric and graphic display represents a unique piece of is imperative that you understand the formats, ranges, and values of theinformation represented to avoid any possible misunderstanding that couldresult in DisplaysDuring a dive, the Current Depth display (Fig.)
