INTRODUCTION
Welcome to AERIS and thank you for choosing the 500AI!
Your new 500AI is an integrated system that will be installed into a high pres-
sure port of your regulator first stage.
Your 500AI presents the information that you need before, during, and after
your air (or nitrox) dives using an intuitive combination of easy to read dis-
plays and unique identification icons. Tissue loading of nitrogen, accumulation
of oxygen, and ascent rate are presented as segmented bar graphs beside color
coded reference indicators that bring quick focus to these important status dis-
plays. In addition, tank pressure is displayed in graphic and numerical for-
mats on the screen.
As you progress through this instructional guide, you will become familiar with
all of the unique functions and features available and see examples of the dis-
plays that you could expect to see in the various operational modes. Refer to
the Glossary of terms in the back of this manual, and keep the waterproof Re-
view Card handy during your dive trips. Although it will require an initial in-
vestment of time to become acquainted with the various icons and bar graphs,
you’ll soon agree that the 500AI is easy to understand and use.
