SUUNTO Vyper2 - Manual (Page 19)

USE UP AND DOWN BUTTONS TO
TOGGLE BETWEEN DIVE SETTINGS
NOTE The settings cannot be activated until 5 minutes has elapsed after
the dive.
5.7.1. Setting the depth alarm
You can set a depth alarm in the dive computer.
ADJUST WITH UP AND
DOWN BUTTONS. ACCEPT
WITH SELECT BUTTON.
The depth alarm is factory-set to 30 m/131 ft, but you can adjust it according to your
personal preference, or switch it off altogether. The depth range can be set from 3m to
100 m/9 ft to 328 ft.
5.7.2. Setting the dive-time alarm
The Suunto Vyper2 has a dive-time alarm setting which, when activated, can be used for
several purposes to add to your diving safety.
ADJUST WITH UP AND
DOWN BUTTONS. ACCEPT
WITH SELECT BUTTON.
NOTE With a range of 1 - 999 minutes, the alarm can be set to your planned
bottom time, for example.
5.7.3. Setting the nitrox values
If set to the NITROX mode, the correct oxygen percentage of the gas in your cylinder (and
additional gases) must always be entered into the computer to ensure correct nitrogen
and oxygen calculations. In addition, the oxygen partial pressure limit must be set. When
in the Nitrox setting mode, the equivalent allowed maximum depth, based on the chosen
setting, will also be displayed. Settings for an additional mix (MIX2) are made similarly,
but with the additional selection of “ON” or “OFF”.
In order to minimize the risk of error during a dive, it is highly recommended that the mixes
are set in the proper order. This means that as the mix number rises, so does oxygen
content, and this is the order they are usually used during the dive. Before a dive, only set
to “ON” the mixes you actually have available and remember to check the set values to
make sure they are correct.
