BUD OPERATING MANUAL CONTROL BUTTON (B) The Control Button (B) allows you to select display options and access specific information when you want to see it. a BAR GRAPHS TLBG (Tissue Loading Bar Graph) The TLBG (Fig. 1a) represents tissue loading of nitrogen, showing your relative no decompression or decompression status.
BUD OPERATING MANUAL ACTIVATION & SETUP © 2002 Design, 2011 7 Doc. No.
BUD OPERATING MANUAL ACTIVATION To Activate the BUD, press and release B (the button). • The unit will enter Diagnostic mode (Fig. 9), displaying all segments of the LCD as 8's, followed by dashes ( - - ), then a countdown from 9 to 0, checking the display and battery voltage to ensure that everything is within tolerance and functioning properly. • After manual activation, it will also check the ambient barometric pressure, and calibrate its present depth as zero.
BUD OPERATING MANUAL FLY/DESAT TIME Time to Fly is a timer that counts down from 23:50 to 0:00 (hr:min) beginning 10 minutes after surfacing from a dive. Time to Desaturate provides calculated time for tissue desaturation at sea level. It also begins counting down 10 minutes after surfacing from a dive, counting down from a maximum of 23:50 to 0:00 (hr:min). It generally starts at times much lower than 23:50 and reaches 0:00 before the Fly countdown reaches 0:00.
BUD OPERATING MANUAL SET UNITS, information includes (Fig. 20): > Graphic SEt. > Graphic IMP (Imperial) or MET (Metric) flashing with FT (or M) icons. • B (< 2 sec) to toggle between IMP and MET. • B (2 sec) to save the setting and access SN. or SERIAL NUMBER Information displayed on this screen should be recorded and kept with your sales receipt, it will be required in the event that your unit requires factory service.

BUD OPERATING MANUAL FEATURES ALGORITHM The BUD is configured with 2 algorithms which allows you to choose which set of NDLs (No Deco Limits) will be used for nitrogen/oxygen calculations and displays relating to Plan and DTR (Dive Time Remaining). You can select to use either the DSAT or the Z+. The selection will lock in for 24 hours after the last dive. DSAT features NDLs that are based on exposures and test data which also formed validation for the PADI RDP.

BUD OPERATING MANUAL DV 3 (DELAYED VIOLATION 3) If you descend deeper than the MOD*, DTR and Current Depth will be displayed as with the Depth ones flashing (Fig. 35). Max Depth on the ALT will also be displayed as 3 dashes. *MOD is the Max Operating Depth at which the BUD can properly perform calculations or provide accurate display information. Refer to the Specifications in the back.
BUD OPERATING MANUAL HIGH O2 Warning >> when 80 to 99% (240 OTU). Alarm >> at 100% (300 OTU). When O2 reaches the Warning Level; the O2 value will flash (in place of DTR or Deco Stop Time) for 10 seconds (Fig. 42). After 10 seconds, DTR will be restored. If O2 reaches the Alarm level; the O2 value (100) will flash (in place of DTR or Deco Stop Time) and the graphic UP will flash (Fig. 43) until on the surface. Fig.

BUD OPERATING MANUAL CARE AND CLEANING Protect your BUD from shock, excessive temperatures, exposure to chemicals, and tampering. Protect the lens against scratches with a Instrument Lens Protector. Small scratches will naturally disappear underwater. • Soak and rinse the BUD in fresh water at the end of each day of diving, and check to ensure that the areas around the Low Pressure (Depth) Sensor (Fig. 45a) and button are free of debris or obstructions.
BUD OPERATING MANUAL WARNING: If damage, moisture, or corrosion is found, return your BUD to an Authorized Oceanic Dealer, and DO NOT attempt to use it until it has received factory prescribed service. Battery Installation • Slide a new 3 volt type CR2430 Lithium Battery, negative side down into the Battery Compartment. Slide it in from the left side (Fig. 48) and ensure that it slides under the contact clip on the lower/right rim of the cavity.
