Omitted Decompression Stage Alarm; Program (Depthometer/Timer) - Cressi Archimede II Manual De Instrucciones

3.5.1. – Omitted Decompression stage alarm.
If the decompression stage is missed by surfacing above the
depth given by the computer, an alarm will sound and the dis-
play will flash until the diver descends back to the proper
depth (ceiling) or below it (picture 21).
The computer allows a maximum time of 3 minutes to cor-
rect this dangerous situation; during this time, the alarm will
continuing sounding. In the event that the diver does not
descend to the proper depth (after 3 minuets) the computer
display "Error" program and won't be usable for the next 48
hours. The only functions working will be Logbook/Profile and
History.
m
DANGER: Should this happen, you must not dive for the
next 48 hours.
In the event that you feel any symptoms of decompression
sickness or air embolism, you should contact emergency
medical services as available in your area. Additionally, DAN
(Divers Alert Network) or your local hyperbaric chamber cen-
ter should be contacted.

Archimedes II computer is equipped with a third dive com-
puting program ( program). This function is especially
useful for apnea (free diving) divers as well as for technical
dives with helium-based binary and ternary mixtures. Please
be advised that Archimedes II in
compute any saturation and de-saturation computations. It
functions only as a basic instrument offering depth and time
functions. During a dive conducted using the Gage mode,
proper decompression software must be utilized according
to proper dive tables.
Cressi-sub reminds you that sport dives must be carried out
within the no decompression guidelines, and at the maximum
depth of 132 ft., which is the limit of sport diving: to exceed
such limits dramatically increases the risk of decompression
sickness!
WARNING: Archimedes II computer has been developed
for sport diving only. It is not intended for commercial or pro-
fessional use requiring longer dive times, and greater diving
depths. Diving beyond the parameters of sport diving dra-
matically increases the risk of decompression sickness.
m
DANGER: Cressi-sub discourages diving with gaseous
mixtures other than air without proper training. The use of
"technical" multi-gas mixtures may expose the diver to dif-
ferent risks than those of sport diving, including serious
physical damages and, in extreme cases, death.
Archimedes II computer's
depth meter/timer functions automatically at depths deeper
than 5.0 ft., showing the following information on its display
(picture 22):
1 current depth value, in meters (m) or feet (ft.). The depth
meter's operative range reaches a depth of m 199.9 (ft.
656).
