Using the NiTek Duo

18 NiTek Duo Dive Computer User Manual

Setting for fresh or salt water use

The NiTek Duo is capable of operating using fresh or salt water

calculations. This is based on:

• One atmosphere of saltwater is 33 feet (10 meters)

• One atmosphere of freshwater is 34 feet (10.3 meters)

Before going diving, set the computer to the type of water you

are diving in. This allows for the most accurate calculations with

respect to no-decompression limits, etc.

To set for fresh or salt water:

1. Press Mode until “dive” is displayed and flashing on the

screen.

2. Press Select until “fresh” or “sea” is flashing.

3. Press Set to toggle between fresh and sea water.

4. When finished, press Select to advance to the next option

(max depth alarm) or to exit, press and hold Mode for 1 to 2

seconds to return to time mode.

Setting the maximum depth alarm

The NiTek Duo has a maximum depth alarm that is activated

when the diver reaches the maximum depth that is set. When the

max depth is reached, an audible alarm sounds and the display

flashes for three seconds.

The alarm can be turned on or off and can be set from 30 to 320

feet (9 to 97 meters).

To set the maximum depth alarm:

1. Press Mode until “dive” is displayed and flashing on the

screen.

2. Press Select until the screen changes and max depth is

flashing.

3. Press Set to set the depth that you want the alarm to sound.

4. Press Select.

The max depth alarm on/off flashes.
