Trout, how many of these guys are out there? The entertainment never =
stops. Geez, I miss Bill Stone.

        1. Put on wrist.
        2. Get in water.
        3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 above as needed.

        I picked up an Uwatec Digital Depth Gauge/Timer at a closeout. =
If anyone has an users manual that they could copy for me I would =
appreciate it. Return info by private e-mail.

        Thanks

        Perhaps I can elaborate a bit on Jess' response:
       =20
        Switching on the device
       =20
        Automatically: on submerging in the water
        Manually: by touching the right and top contacts with moistened =
fingers
       =20
        After switching on, all signs of the display light up for =
approximately 5 seconds for testing purposes. Afterwards, a count-down =
of all figures from 9 to 0 starts. After this check, the unit switches =
into ready mode. If no dive is started within the following three =
minutes, the device switches into standby mode automatically (no =
display).
       =20
        Current depth
       =20
        The current depth is displayed in meters (feet). The depth =
measuring is calibrated in meters (feet) fresh water according to =
international standards Therefore in salt water (sea) the display shows =
a greater depth than the actual salt water depth.
       =20
        Maximum Depth
       =20
        Maximum depth of a dive is only displayed if it is greater than =
the current depth (maximum indicator function). To prevent the maximum =
depth from continuously lighting up and going off, the display only =
appears when the current depth is 1 m (or 3 feet) smaller than the =
maximum depth and goes off when the original maximum depth is reached =
again.
       =20
        Dive Time
       =20
        The Digital indicates the time the diver has spent below 1.2 m =
(4 feet) in minutes. The colon flashes when the clock is running. =
Maximum dive time displayed is 99 minutes. Afterwards, the time =
measuring restarts at zero.
       =20
        Temperature
       =20
        The Digital measures water and air temperature and displays the =
values in C (or F). Beside the value of the temperature, the symbol =
[Temp] appears. It may take a few minutes until the exact temperature is =
displayed, since the sensor for the temperature is located inside the =
housing.
       =20
        Rate of Ascent
       =20
        The ideal rate of ascent varies depending on the depth. The =
Digital measures your rate of ascent and compares it to the programmed =
target values. When ascending, the display of the temperature =
extinguishes and a percentage appears in its place. It indicates the =
current percentage of the target value. Beside, the symbol [Speed] is =
displayed.
       =20
        Ascent warning
       =20
        100% corresponds to the recommended ascent rate. At 110% an =
additional optical warning in the shape of an arrow appears. Above 140% =
the arrow flashes.
       =20
        Surface Functions
       =20
        Surface Mode
       =20
        After the dive, the diplay [---] appears for 5 minutes. If =
diving is resumed during this period, it is added to the dive just =
started. After this 5 minute period, the dive is completed and entered =
in the logbook. In surface mode, the Digital displays [surface] and the =
surface interval. The surface interval runs untiul another dive is =
performed or until it has reached 24 hours. The Digital then switches =
into standby mode. In surface mode, the Digital also indicates air =
temperature. If there is no operation for 3 minutes, the display =
extinguishes. However, the surface interval keeps on running.
       =20
        Logbook
       =20
        The Digital stores the data of the last 9 dives. A dive is only =
entered if depth was below 1.2 m (4 feet) and the duration longer than 2 =
minutes. On touching the left and right contacts with your fingers after =
switching on or during the surface mode, the mode display [log no.] =
appears. The dive number [1] and maximum depth as well as dive time of =
the last dive are displayed. If the ascent warning [arrow] was displayed =
during the dive for a longer period, it is also entered in the logbook. =
On every subsequent touching of the logbook contacts the previous dive =
to the one currently displayed is called up. After the 9th dive (the =
oldest one), the most recent dive with the number 1 appears again. If =
you keep your fingers permanently on the left and right contacts the =
dives of the logbnook are called up in sequence. If another dive is =
performed, the dive numbers are moved one step backwards and the oldest =
dive up to that moment (no. 9 so far) is deleted. The current or latest =
dive gets the logbook number 1. The nine most recent dives are always =
stored in the logbook. By touching the left and right contacts the =
logbook is closed and the Digital goes back to a state of rest. This =
also occurs automatically if none of the contacts are touched for 3 =
minutes.
       =20
       =20
        Hope this helps.
       =20
