PATENT NOTICE

U.S. Patents have been issued, or applied for, to protect the following design features:

Dive Time Remaining (U.S. Patent no. 4,586,136), Data Sensing and Processing Device (U.S. Patent no. 4,882,678),

and Variable Ascent Rate Indicator (U.S. Patent no. 5,156,055). User Setable Display (U.S. Patent no. 5,845,235) is

owned by Suunto Oy (Finland).

DECOMPRESSION MODEL

The program within the Veo 100 simulates the absorption of nitrogen into the body by using a mathematical model. This

model is merely a way to apply a limited set of data to a large range of experiences. The Veo 100 dive computer

model is based upon the latest research and experiments in decompression theory. Still, using the Veo 100, just

as using the U.S. Navy (or other) No Decompression Tables, is no guarantee of avoiding decom-

pression sickness, i.e. “the bends.” Every diver’s physiology is different, and can even vary from day to day.

No machine can predict how your body will react to a particular dive profile.

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to Oceanic and thank you for choosing the Veo 100

Personal Dive Computer (PDC)!

It is extremely important that you read this Operating Manual in

sequence and understand it completely before attempting to use

the Veo 100.

It is equally important that you read the Oceanic Dive Computer

Safety and Reference Manual (Doc. No. 12-2262) provided with

your Veo 100. It contains information that you must become

familiar with prior to diving with your Veo 100.

Remember that technology is no substitute for common sense, and

a dive computer only provides the person using it with data, not

the knowledge to use it.

The Veo 100 has numerous features that are described through-

out this manual.

CONTROL BUTTON

The Control Button (Fig. 1) allows you to select display options

and access specific information when you want to see it.

Fig. 1 - Control Button

BAR GRAPHS

Tissu Loading Bar Graph (TLBG)

The Tissue Loading Bar Graph (Fig. 2a) represents tissue loading

of nitrogen, showing your relative no decompression or decom-

pression status.

The Tissue Loading Bar Graph monitors 12 different nitrogen

compartments simultaneously and displays the one that is in

control of your dive.

As your depth and elapsed dive time increase, segments will add

to the Graph, and as you ascend to shallower depths, the Bar

Graph will begin to recede, indicating that additional no decom-

pression time is allowed for multilevel diving.

It is divided into a green No Decompression (normal) zone, a

yellow Caution zone (also No Decompression), and a red

Decompression (danger) zone.

While you cannot provide a guarantee against the occurrence of

decompression sickness, you may choose your own personal

zone of caution based upon age, physique, excessive weight,

etc., to reduce the statistical risk.

Fig. 2 - TLBG

Variabl Asc nt Rat Indicator (VARI)

The Variable Ascent Rate Indicator (Fig. 3a) provides a visual

representation of ascent speed (i.e., an ascent speedometer).

Green is a 'normal' rate, yellow a 'caution' rate, and red is 'Too

Fast'. The segments of the VARI represent two sets of speeds

which change at a reference depth of 60 feet (18 meters). Refer

to the chart for segment values.

WARNING: At d pths gr at r than 60 f t (18 m t rs),

asc nt rat s should not xc d 60 fpm (18 mpm). At

d pths of 60 f t (18 m t rs) and shallow r, asc nt

rat s should not xc d 30 fpm (9 mpm).

ALPHA / NUMERIC DISPLAYS

D pth Displays

During a dive, the Current Depth display (Fig. 3b), indicates

Depths from 0 to 330 feet (99 meters) in increments of 1 foot (.1

meter). The Depth range is extended to 399 feet (120 meters)

when it is set to operate in Digital Gauge Mode.

By pressing the button, the Maximum Depth reached during

that dive will be displayed.

During a Decompression Dive, the required Ceiling Stop

Depth is displayed in the Max Depth position.
