NOTICE

STORAGE and INITIAL ACTIVATION

AERIS Watch type dive gauges are placed in a Deep Sleep mode prior to being shipped from the factory. The intent is to extend storage life of the Battery for up to 7 years, before the unit is initially placed in service.

In this mode, Date and Time are updated as they normally would be. However, they are not displayed. Upon waking the F10 up, the correct Date and USA

Pacific Time will be displayed and it will be ready to operate with full functions.

To wake the F10 up from Deep Sleep mode, simultaneously depress the upper/ right (S) and lower/left (A) buttons for 2 seconds until the display comes full ON displaying the MAIN TIME screen, then release them.

NOTE: Once the F10 is brought out of the Deep Sleep mode, it can only be placed back in it by the factory.

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to AERIS and thank you for choosing the F10 !

It is extremely important that you read this Operating Manual in sequence and understand it completely before attempting to use the F10 as a dive gauge.

Remember that technology is no substitute for common sense, and a dive gauge only provides the person using it with data, not the knowledge to use it.

INTERACTIVE CONTROL CONSOLE

The Interactive Control Console consists of four Control Buttons that allow you to select mode options and access specific information. They are also used to enter

Settings, operate the Backlight, and access additional screens of information.

Throughout this manual they will be referred to as the M, S, L, and A buttons.

• Upper/Left - Mode (M) button

• Upper/Right - Select (S) button

• Lower/Right - Light (L) button

• Lower/Left - Advance (A) button

Alternate Time

Countdown Timer

Chronograph

Daily Alarm

The M button is used to access 4 other modes that include

Alternate Time, Countdown Timer, Chronograph (stop watch/ run timer), and Daily Alarm. It is also used to revert to the

Local Default Time display and access Free Surface Mode.

The screens of the Main Modes and Sub Modes will remain on display until a button is pressed to access another screen or mode, activate a sequence, or for 2 minutes if no button is pressed. The Chronograph remains on display unless turned

Off or another mode is accessed.

When Wet Activation is set On, the F10 will enter Dive Mode upon descent to 4 FT (feet)/1.2 M (meters) for 1 second, regardless of what operating mode it is in.

WARNING: When Wet Activation is set Off, the F10 must be in Free Dive Surface Mode prior to the first dive of a new series. Commencing a dive while in Watch modes will not activate Dive Mode unless Wet Activation is set

ON.

Fig. 1 - MAIN TIME

11

OPERATION AS A DIVING GAUGE

Entering Settings relating to diving activities is only available in Free Surface

Mode which also allows access to a Countdown Timer (separate from the Watch

CDT), Log, and History Modes.

PC INTERFACE

Interface with a PC, to allow uploading settings and downloading data, is accomplished by connecting the F10 to a PC USB Port using the special ACI

(AERIS Computer Interface) USB Interface Cable.

The software program together with the USB Driver required is on the ACI CD, as can be downloaded from the AERIS web site. The program's HELP serves as the user manual which can be printed for personal use.

Prior to attempting to Download data from your F10 or Upload Settings to it, review the

HELP section of the ACI program which serves as its User Manual. Recommended is to print those sections of HELP that you consider appropriate for your Interface activities.

The Settings Upload portion of the ACI program can be used to set/change the

Main Time, Date, Set A group (Alarms), and Set U group (Utilities) using the same

Interface System.

Information available for retrieval (Download) from the F10 to the PC Download portion of the program includes dive number, surface interval time, maximum depth, elapsed dive time, start date, start time, lowest temperature under water, sampling rate, dive profile, and Set Points.

• Refer to page 66 for more details relating to PC Interface.

12

ALPHA NUMERIC MESSAGES

The upper line of digits on the LCD screen is used to convey alpha numeric graphic Messages such as Day of the Week, Mode of Operation, items being Set,

Altitude level, and Alarm identification. At times, the lower line is also used to display graphics such as On/Off, Set, and Seconds.

AUDIBLE ALARM

A red LED Warning Light, located on the left side of the housing, is synchronized with the Audible Alarm. It will flash as the Audible Alarm sounds. It will turn off when the Audible shuts off. The Audible and LED will not be active if the Alarm is

Set OFF, a group A setting which completely disables it.

When Alarms strike, the Backlight will come On if Off and remain On until you turn it Off by pressing/releasing the L button or automatically after 10 seconds.

Situation that will sound (2) 2 second beeps -

• EDT (Repeating Elapsed Dive Time) Alarm, if set On.

Situations that will sound 3 sets of (3) 1 second beeps -

• Watch Daily Alarm (surface only), if set On.

• Watch Countdown Timer reaches 0:00 (hr:min), if set On.

• Free Mode Countdown Timer reaches 0:00 (min:sec), if set On.

• SRT (Surface Recovery Time) Alert, if set On.

• RDI (Repeating Depth Interval) Alarm, if set On.

• Descending Depth Alarms DD 1, DD 2, and DD 3, if set On.

13

BACKLIGHT

To turn the Backlight On, press and release the L button (lower/right) button momentarily (< 2 seconds). The Backlight will remain On for the Duration time set

(a Set U selection) unless you turn it Off during that time.

• The Backlight will come On (even if set OFF) when Alarms strike and remain

On until turned Off or automatically after 10 seconds .

• Pressing and releasing the L button momentarily (< 2 seconds) while the

Backlight is On will turn it Off.

• Depressing the L button for 2 seconds while the Backlight is On, will reset the timer and extend the On time to the full Duration time set.

• If the L button is depressed for > 60 seconds, the Backlight will be disabled and not turn On until the button is released then pressed/released again.

• The Backlight will be disabled when there is a Low Battery condition, and be re enabled once the battery is replaced.

• Extensive use of the Backlight reduces Battery use life.

• Turning the Backlight Off when it is not being used will help extend Battery use life.

• The Backlight does not operate when the unit is connected to a PC.

14

POWER SUPPLY

The F10 utilizes (1) 3 volt CR2430 Lithium Battery.

The F10 checks Battery voltage every 2 minutes during operation while on the surface.

a

• If voltage decreases to the Warning level (2.75 volts), the

Battery icon will appear on Surface display screens (Fig.

2a) as an indication that the Battery should be changed prior to commencing a series of dives.

• If voltage decreases to the Alarm level (2.50 volts), the

Battery icon will flash and operation will automatically revert to Main Time screen. The F10 would then only operate in Watch modes until the Battery becomes completely depleted at about 2.35 volts.

• Low Battery Warning/Alarm conditions are not displayed during Dive Modes.

Fig. 2 - LOW BATTERY

WARNING

• If a Low Battery Condition was not displayed prior to starting a Dive, and a Low Battery Condition occurs during the dive, there will be sufficient Battery power to maintain operation for the remainder of that dive. Upon surfacing, the message CHNG >> BATT will scroll (Fig. 3), then operation will automatically revert to the Main Time screen and only operate in Watch modes until the Battery becomes completely depleted at about 2.35 volts.

UPLOADING SETTINGS AND DOWNLOADING DATA

The F10 is configured with a Data Port located on the back of the left side that enables it to be connected to a PC through a USB port using the ACI (AERIS

Computer Interface) Cable, when viewing the Watch Main Time screen or Free

Surface Main screen.

The Settings Upload portion of the ACI program can be used to set/change the

Main Time/Date selections, Set A group selections (Alarms), and Set U group selections (Utilities).

The Download portion of the program can be used to retrieve/copy data (Download it) from the F10. The data includes dive number, surface interval time, maximum depth, elapsed dive time, start date/time, lowest temperature under water, sampling rate, dive profile, and Set Points.

The F10 checks for the presence of an interface device connection to the Data Port once every second while operating in Watch Main Time or Free Surface mode.

Checks are not made if the Wet Activation contacts are wet.

When the cable is connected to the F10, a PC screen appears on the display with a 120 second countdown (Fig. 65).

Upon sensing an interface connection with the PC, the countdown will be terminated and all segments of the LCD will be displayed. This indicates that the PC and F10 are connected and prepared for Upload of settings or Download of data, which is then initiated using the PC program.

66

Fig. 65 - PCI

Operation reverts to the Watch Main Time or Free Surface Main screen after completion of the Upload or Download operation, or after 2 minutes (120 second countdown reaches 0) if no PC action was taken.

ALTITUDE SENSING AND ADJUSTMENT

Prior to the first dive of a series of repetitive dives, Altitude (i.e., Ambient Pressure) is measured upon activation of Free Surface Mode and every 15 minutes until a dive is made or operation reverts to Main Time after 2 hours.

> While it is operating in Watch Modes after a dive, measurements are taken every 15 minutes during the 24 hour period after surfacing.

> Measurements are only taken when the unit is dry.

> Two readings are taken, the second reading 5 seconds after the first. The readings must be within 1 foot (30 cm) of each other to record that Ambient

Pressure as the current Altitude.

When diving in high altitude waters from 3,001 to 14,000 feet (916 to 4,270 meters), the F10 automatically adjusts to these conditions providing corrected

Depth indication at intervals of 1,000 feet (305 meters).

No adjustments are made during any time that the Wet Contacts are bridged.

At an elevation of 3,001 feet (916 meters), Depth Calibration automatically changes from feet of seawater to feet of fresh water.

The F10 will not function as a Dive Gauge above 14,000 feet (4,270 meters).

WARNINGS:

• Conducting Free dives within a 24 hour period after conducting SCUBA dives, combined with the effects of multiple rapid Free Dive ascents, increases your risk of decompression sickness. Such activities may result in accelerated entry into decompression which could cause serious injury or death.

• Combining competitive type Free dive activities that involve multiple descents/ascents with activities utilizing SCUBA during the same 24 hour period is not recommended.

Presently, there is no data relating to such activities.

• It is highly recommended that anyone planning to become involved in competitive type Free dive activities obtain proper instruction and training from a recognized Free

Diving trainer. It is imperative that the physiological affects be understood and the diver is physically prepared.

• If your F10 stops working for any reason while operating in

Free Dive Mode, it is important that you have anticipated this possibility and are prepared for it.

• If you dive in situations where your trip would be ruined or your safety would be jeopardized by losing the use of your

F10, a backup instrument system is highly recommended.
