
WARNING
We recommend before you begin diving,
you always put Puck Air into Predive mode.
Early in your dive, always check that the
dive computer is switched on.
NOTE
After a dive in “BT” mode, the transition
to “Air” or “Ean” mode will be disabled
for 24 hours (you can bypass this block by
resetting the residual nitrogen in the tissue
compartments in the Set Data menu).

WARNING
This option is intended only for highly
experienced divers. Users who clear the
residual nitrogen memory cannot then use
the instrument for repetitive dives. After
clearing the residual nitrogen memory, do
not dive with Puck Air if you have already
dived within the previous 24 hours.
NOTE
Hold down the button for 4 seconds to
activate the display backlight.
SURFACE MODE  BOTTOM TIME
The desaturation time and the delay before
flying or traveling to high altitudes are
displayed in the same way as for Air or Nitrox
dives.
BOTTOM TIME WITH BEHAVIOR
ERROR
The following errors can occur during an air or
Ean dive:
• uncontrolled ascent
• omitted deco stop
In this case, Puck Air will inhibit the Dive – Air
and Dive - Ean modes for 24 hours, allowing
operation in Bottom Time mode only, and will
continue to display the error committed during
the previous dive.
PC LINK MODE
Using a special interface unit and a dedicated
Windows software application, you can transfer
all the data from the Puck Air Logbook to a
personal computer.
Puck Air and the computer communicate
through a special USB interface module
(optional).
Scroll through the main menu to PC
(Figure 56).

LOGBOOK
Logbook mode is used for viewing the details
of past dives on the display. The dives are
organized as in the pages of a “Logbook” with
the number “1” assigned to the most recent
dive, “2” to the preceding dive and so forth
until the memory is full. If the memory is full,
when the user dives again the oldest record is
deleted to free up memory for the new dive.
Maximum capacity of approximately 40 hours
of diving with profile points at twenty second
intervals. Scroll through the main menu to
Logbook. Press and hold the button to enter
the Logbook. The first page of the Logbook
contains the history of the dives saved
(Figure 58):
