2.4.WIRELESS CYLINDER PRESSURE TRANSMISSION

The Vytec can be used together with an optional wireless cylinder pressure transmitter that can easily be attached to the high-pres- sure port of the regulator (Fig. 2.5). By using the transmitter the diver can benefit from cylin- der pressure and remaining air time data.

In order to use the transmitter the wireless integration needs to be enabled in the Vytec’s settings. To enable or disable the wireless integration refer to chapter 4.3.3.3 Cylinder pressure settings.

2.4.1. Installing the Transmitter

Upon purchasing the Vytec, Suunto strongly recommends you have your dealer attach the transmitter to the first stage of your regulator.

If you decide to attach it yourself, follow the steps outlined below:

Remove the high pressure (HP) port plug on the first stage of your regulator using an appropriate tool.

Thread the high pressure transmitter of the Vy- tec into the HP port of your regulator with your fingers. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! Maximum torque 6 Nm (4.4 ftlbs or 53 inlbs). Sealing is based on a static o-ring, not force!

Attach the regulator to the scuba cylinder. Slowly open the valve. Check for leaks by submerging the regulator first stage in water. If leaks are detected, check the condition of the o-ring and sealing surfaces.
