INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Oceanic and thank you for choosing DataTrans Plus!
Your new DataTrans Plus is a two component, hoseless, integrated system that consists of a computer Display
Module and a radio frequency Transmitter that will be installed into a high pressure port of your regulator
first stage, or is built into an Oceanic DX3
™
Integrated first stage regulator. The transmitter sends tank pres-
sure data to the display module via a low frequency signal. In addition to nitrogen and oxygen loading data,
breathing gas consumption is calculated and displayed in graphic and alpha/numerical formats on the
computer’s screen. The Display Module can also be used without the transmitter as a stand alone, non-inte-
grated computer, and will retain full use of all functions except those that related to tank pressure.
Your DataTrans Plus presents the information that you need before, during, and after your air (or nitrox)
dives using Oceanic's intuitive combination of easy to read displays and unique identification icons. Tissue
loading of nitrogen, accumulation of oxygen, ascent rate, breathing gas consumption rate, and breathing gas
time remaining are presented as segmented bar graphs alongside color coded reference indicators that bring
quick focus to these important status displays.
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 displays that you could expect to see in the various operational
modes. Refer to the Glossary of terms on page 121, and keep the waterproof Review Card handy during your
dive trips. Although it will require an initial investment of time to become acquainted with the various icons
