Fig. 4 - Graphic Diver Interface
The Tissue Loading Bar Graph (Fig 5) represents nitrogen loading, showing your relative no decompression or decompression status. As your depth and bottom time increase, segments will fill the graph to form an arc around the perimeter of the LCD. As you ascend to shallower depths, this bar graph will begin to recede, indicating that additional no decompression time is allowed for multilevel diving. The TLBG also assists you with managing decompression by indicating six red 'ceiling' stop depths. This is explained in detail in the Handling the Extremes section.
Fig. 5 - Tissue Loading Bar Graph (TLBG)
The TLBG gives a visual representation of just how close you are to the no decompression limit (the 12 o'clock position of the TLBG) with a yellow Caution Zone (Fig. 5a). This Caution Zone portion of the TLBG allows you to make a decision regarding safety stop duration or necessity. While you cannot provide a guarantee against the occurrence of decompression sickness, you may choose your own personal zone of caution based on age, physique, excessive weight, etc., to reduce the statistical risk. When rising towards the surface, the Variable Ascent Rate Indicator (Fig. 6) shows how fast you are ascending. The Variable Ascent Rate Indicator (VARI) will alert you with flashing segments if you enter the red zone, which represents ascent rates faster than 60 feet (18 meters) per minute. Immediately slow your ascent whenever this is seen. Even if you have not entered decompression, a safety stop made between 15-20
Fig. 6 - Variable Ascent Rate Indicator (VARI)
feet (5-6 meters) is strongly recommended as a standard procedure before completing your ascent. Many divers do this to provide a wider zone of caution from the no decompression limit. If your depth or bottom time is such that the TLBG enters the red zone, the Data100 will switch to the Decompression Dive Mode (Fig. 7) signified with the flashing Decompression Dive Mode icon (Fig. 7a). A decompression stop ceiling will be indicated by the TLBG, and the Stop Ceiling icon (Fig. 7b). Digital displays are current depth, current required decompression stop depth and time for that stop depth, and total required ascent time to the surface, that includes total required decompression stop times and vertical ascent time calculated for a rate of 60 feet (18 meters) per minute. You must stay at, or slightly below, the ceiling stop depth indicated until the TLBG recedes into the next shallower zone before ascending any further, or you will increase your risk of decompression sickness. After displaying the Decompression Dive Mode for 12 seconds an Alternate Display (Fig. 8) appears automatically for 3 seconds. The two displays will continue to alternate while you are in the Decompression Dive Mode. The alternate display replaces required stop depth and time information with maximum depth and elapsed dive time. Also, the Stop Ceiling icon is replaced by the Max Depth (Fig. 8a) and Elapsed Dive Time icons (Fig. 8b).

(Decompression Mode) Fig. 13 - Depth Displays
seconds when the screen toggles to the Alternate display once every 15 seconds while in the Decompression Mode. Time Display The Main Time display, located in the center of the LCD (Fig. 14a), indicates elapsed Surface Time, theoretical Dive Time Available during the PDPS, No Decompression Dive Time Remaining, or Total Ascent Time required depending on the mode that the Data100 is in at the time. A second time display, located in the lower right portion of the LCD (Fig. 14b), indicates Elapsed Dive (bottom) Time, or Decompression Stop Time for the current stop ceiling indicated as identified by the Elapsed Dive Time and Ceiling Stop icons, respectively. Time displays are shown in hour:minute format (i.e. 1:06 represents one hour and six minutes, not 106 minutes!). The colon that separates hours and minutes blinks once per second when the display is indicating real time such as elapsed Surface Time or Dive (bottom) Time. Dive Time Available, No Decompression Dive Time Remaining, or Total Ascent Time required are calculated projections of time and use a solid (non-blinking) colon to indicate that they is counting down, rather than counting up.

Fig. 14 - Time Displays

GRAPHIC DIVER INTERFACE Two bar graphs referred to as the Graphic Diver Interface are located around the perimeter of the Data100's LCD. They are color coded green, yellow, and red to denote normal, caution and danger zones, respectively. The Graphic Diver Interface allows you to make quick status checks underwater of your no decompression status and ascent rate. Keeping these bar graphs in the green at all times will reduce your exposure to decompression sickness and the effects of an excessive ascent rate. Tissue Loading Bar Graph (TLBG) The Tissue Loading Bar Graph (TLBG) represents nitrogen loading, showing your relative no decompression or decompression status. As your depth and bottom time increase, segments will add to the graph in an arc beginning from the lower left. As you ascend to shallower depths, the TLBG will begin to recede, indicating that additional no decompression time is allowed for multilevel diving. The TLBG also assists you with managing decompression by indicating six 'ceiling' (stop) depths, which are explained in more detail in the Handling the Extremes section. The TLBG, located around the outside edge of the LCD (Fig. 15), monitors 12 different nitrogen compartments simultaneously and displays the one that is in control of your dive. It is divided into a green No Decompression zone, a yellow Caution zone, and a red Decompression zone. The red Decompression zone is

Diagnostic Mode is displayed immediately following activation. After pressing and releasing the control button, the Diagnostic Mode will display all "8's followed by dashes, and then a countdown from 9 to 0 (Fig. 18). During the countdown, the Data100 checks its display functions and battery voltage to ensure everything is working properly, then changes to the Surface Mode. If battery voltage is below the level sufficient for a day's operation, the Battery icon will be displayed, flashing. Below 15% of rated voltage all graphic displays will shut off except the Battery icon that will flash 16 final times prior to shutdown of the Data100. See page 53 for more information regarding Low Battery. WARNING: If a Low Battery condition is indicated immediately upon activation, Oceanic strongly recommends that you DO NOT dive until batteries are replaced. If the flashing Low Battery icon disappears and the unit stays on implying satisfactory voltage, DO NOT dive until batteries are replaced. This could occur if the button is depressed for greater than 8 seconds and the unit enters an External Access (EA) mode. If a dive is not made within 2 hours after activation, the Data100 will shut off automatically to save battery power. Always check your Data100 before entering the water to ensure that it has been activated.
Fig. 18 - Diagnostic Mode
Surface Mode Surface Mode, identified by the Surface Mode icon to the left of the Surface Time display, immediately follows Diagnostic Mode after initial activation. Information provided includes, the number of the most recent dive made ('0' if no dive has been made since activation), elapsed Surface Time with the colon flashing, and tissue (nitrogen) loading, if any, as the TLBG. At the end of a dive, when you ascend to 3 feet (1 meter) or shallower, the Data100 will automatically enter Surface Mode (Fig 19) and begin counting your Surface Interval. This first 10 minutes is in affect, a transition period: The main Time display will start to count Surface Interval with the colon flashing. The Dive Mode icon will be replaced by the Surface Mode icon that will flash indicating post dive Surface Mode transition. The previous Dive Number will appear above the Main Time display. The TLBG will indicate current nitrogen loading.
Fig. 19 - Surface Mode (First 10 minutes)
If you descend during that first 10 minute transition period, time underwater will be considered a continuation of that dive. The time at the surface (if less than 10 minutes) will not be added as bottom time. During the 10 minute transition period, the Log Mode is accessible and will display that dive'sdata, however, it will not be stored in the unit's memory until the 10 minute period is
completed. The PDPS will not appear until after the first 10 minutes. Once 10 minutes have elapsed, the Surface Mode icon stops flashing. Other information will continue to be displayed as described above. Time to Fly will appear once per minute at the beginning of the PDPS. That dive will then be entered into the memory of the Log Mode, and a subsequent descent will be considered a new dive. Pre Dive Planning Sequence (PDPS) Prior to every dive, Oceanic strongly recommends that you view the PDPS to review the no decompression limits that will help you plan your dive as required to avoid decompression. This is especially important for repetitive dives, when the PDPS (Fig. 20) will indicate for you the adjusted no decompression bottom times that are available to you on your next dive, based on any residual nitrogen following your last dive and surface interval. WARNING: The PDPS predicts only no decompression times for subsequent dives. Depending on cylinder size and air consumption, you may have less time available than shown in the PDPS because of air or other limitations. As you will recall from page 5, after activation and diagnostics, the unit will enter the Surface Mode for 10 seconds then automatically commence the PDPS, identified by the PDPS icon (Fig. 20a). At that time and once each minute a

Fig. 25 - Decompression (Alternate Screen)
You must stay at, or slightly below, the ceiling stop depth indicated until the TLBG recedes into the next shallower zone before ascending any further, or you will increase your risk of decompression sickness. The amount of decompression credit time you receive is dependent on depth, with slightly less credit given the deeper you are. Still, you must never ascend shallower than your decompression ceiling. Doing so will greatly increase your risk of decompression sickness and place the Data100 into a Conditional Violation Mode described later. When coping with surge and swell, it may be difficult to stay at an exact depth. You should stay slightly deeper (Fig. 26a) than the required stop depth indicated (Fig. 26b) until the TLBG recedes into the next shallower zone. Then, you can ascend to, but not shallower than, that indicated ceiling. Once you have performed the required decompression, the Data100 will switch to No Decompression Dive Mode, allowing additional time underwater. Though more time may be available, you must spend a portion of this time continuing to decompress at a safety stop deeper than or equal to 10 feet (3 meters). This will let the TLBG recede further into the yellow Caution zone or green No Decompression zone. During a dive in which you inadvertently enter decompression, you must focus on reducing your tissue loading as much as possible - by spending as much time as you can at your final safety stop.
Fig. 26 - Decompression Stop Depth
Violation Modes The Data100 enters one of three different Violation Modes when you exceed its ability to predict an ascent procedure. These modes are explained fully in the Handling the Extremes section beginning on page 33. Gauge Mode If the Data100 enters a Permanent Violation Mode, it will operate in Gauge Mode on subsequent dives, only displaying depth and time. The Data100 removes calculated displays that no longer provide correct information because of the violation. For the Data100 to reset itself, no dives must be made for 24 hours. See page 43 for a more detailed explanation of Gauge Mode. ASCENDING TO THE SURFACE While ascending to shallower depths , the segments that have filled up the TLBG (Fig. 27a) will begin to recede in a counter clockwise direction, offering a graphic representation of your multilevel diving capability. If you entered the Decompression Mode, you must not complete your ascent until the TLBG is at least inside the yellow Caution zone. If you have not entered the Decompression Mode, a safety stop made between 15-20 feet is strongly recommended as a standard procedure before completing your ascent. Providing that your air supply is sufficient, you should make every effort to

Fig. 33 - External Access (EA) Mode
BACKLIGHT FEATURE In addition to using a high contrast LCD for easy readability in low light conditions, the Data100's Oceanglo backlight feature evenly and easily illuminates the full display (Fig. 34). This means that on night dives, in caves, or any other low light situation you illuminate the display when you wish to view it, with the touch of a button. To activate the Oceanglo backlight during the Dive mode, simply press and hold the control button. Oceanglo will remain illuminated as long as the button is depressed, plus 10 seconds after being released. Oceanic recommends that you always carry primary and backup dive lights when conducting dives that could include low light situations.

HANDLING THE EXTREMES

EMERGENCY DECOMPRESSION There are few legitimate excuses for making unplanned Decompression dives, and the consequences of this type of diving can be severe. Decompression diving requires special training. The Data100 is intended for use by recreational divers not engaged in intentional decompression diving. Decompression features are provided only for emergency situations. By entering decompression, you automatically impose a ceiling above you which you cannot immediately ascend beyond, denying you free access to the surface. DECOMPRESSION RULES ARE NOT MEANT TO BE BENT Professional military and commercial divers plan ahead for this situation by ensuring that they have complete surface support, including a redundant air supply for emergencies. They also navigate very carefully throughout their dive to ensure that they begin and complete their ascent while maintaining contact with a rope or a line to the surface. This is necessary for making a well controlled ascent. The Data100 is not intended for use by military or commercial divers. By making an unplanned Decompression dive without the necessary preparation and training, you will have placed yourself in an unnecessarily dangerous situation. You may also find yourself drifting long distances in an ocean current before you can surface, due to the lack of an ascent line. Your buddy may be unable to provide assistance without also risking decompression sickness. It is easy to see how this one mistake can quickly be compounded by several others.
The Data100 is a sophisticated instrument designed with capabilities that go beyond the range of recreational diving with compressed air. It should not be considered, however, that these built-in capabilities provide any implied approval or consent from Oceanic for individuals to exceed the defined limits of recreational dive profiles, as agreed on by all internationally recognized training agencies. Decompression diving should therefore be strictly avoided. The Data100 is designed to help you by providing a complete representation of how close you are to entering decompression. In the event that you do inadvertently enter decompression, the red zone of the TLBG (Fig. 35), the Data100 can provide you with limited information to help you ascend to the surface, if you follow the instructions given in this section. Oceanic strongly recommends that you avoid entering decompression, and reminds you that decompression diving requires special training. The Data100 cannot provide you with a backup air supply for emergencies or the ascent line you will need, and decompression diving greatly increases your risk of decompression sickness.

Red Deco Zone

Fig. 35 - TLBG Decompression Zone
WARNING: Existing data for making planned decompression dives is extremely limited, and virtually nonexistent for repetitive decompression diving. You must therefore avoid decompression diving and allow a surface interval of at least 24 hours before reentering the water in the event a dive requiring decompression is made. Yellow Caution Zone If youre not careful, it is possible to enter decompression rapidly, whether at deep depths or during repetitive dives. After entering decompression (especially at deeper depths) the TLBG may fill the decompression stop zones rapidly. Once youve entered decompression, it is imperative that you immediately change the focus of your activities and begin a safe ascent toward the required decompression stop ceiling. If you continue the dive at a depth greater than the ceiling, your exposure to decompression sickness will increase, and you will risk entering violation mode and losing the information needed to ascend properly.
CAUTION ZONE (TLBG) Your dive training taught you not to get too close to the No Decompression limits. The yellow Caution zone (C.Z.) of the TLBG, and its position on the LCD peripheral (Fig. 36), offers you a convenient way to consistently monitor how
Fig. 36 - TLBG Caution Zone
close you are coming to the No Decompression limit, located at the 12 o'clock position. Oceanic suggests always leaving the water with the TLBG in the green No Decompression zone. WARNING: Never exit the water with the TLBG in the red Decompression zone. Doing so greatly increases the risk of decompression sickness, and may result in injury or death. Body metabolism varies from person to person, and even from day to day. If you are feeling less than 100%, or you are in less than perfect physical shape, use the Caution zone as a visual reference to place a wider margin of protection between you and the No Decompression limit. EXCEEDING MAXIMUM OPERATING DEPTH Although the Data100 will withstand the pressures found at 330 feet (99.5 meters), the depth that you can still use all its features could be much shallower. WARNING: The maximum recommended sport diving depth limit is 130 feet (39 meters). Any deeper dive should be avoided. Special training, equipment and support are necessary for this type of diving. Oceanic does not advocate diving to depths below 130 feet (39 meters), or decompression diving, the basis for which is theoritical.

The maximum depth that the Data100 will display all of its features, is 330 feet (99.5 meters). Upon exceeding 330 feet (99.5 meters), the TLBG will flash and Depth and Max Depth displays will only indicate and flash three dashes signifying that you are 'Out of Range' (Fig. 37). The numeric depth display will not reappear until you ascend shallower than 330 feet (99.5 meters). You will also enter the Delayed Violation Mode, described on page 40. For the remainder of that dive, and in the log for that dive, three dashes will be displayed as the value for Max Depth. After a dive, the Data100 will continue to calculate residual nitrogen for up to 24 hours. For a clean dive with no residual nitrogen remaining from previous dives, the Data100 will allow a maximum of 7 minutes no decompression dive time available at 160 feet (48 meters). Depending on your descent rate, 7 minutes at 160 feet (48 meters) can be a very short amount of time. It is much more practical to stay within the 11 minutes of no decompression time allowed at 130 feet (39 meters). If you exceed 130 feet (39 meters), watch the Data100 closely because you will enter decompression rapidly. Upon entering decompression the TLBG will pass the 12 o'clock position and enter the red zone and the decompression stop ceiling icons will be displayed (Fig. 38).

Fig. 38 - Recognizing Decompression Mode
VIOLATION MODES WARNING: If you exceed certain limits, the Data100 will not be able to tell you how to get safely back to the surface. These situations will make the Data100 enter 'violation modes' and must be avoided at all costs. They push decompression theory to the limits and can result in loss of some Data100 functions for 24 hours after the dive in which a violation occurred. The Violation Modes that the Data100 can enter, depending on the situation, are termed Conditional, Delayed, and Immediate. It is important to understand each different Violation Mode that the Data100 can enter and how to carry out decompression procedures in the event you enter one.
Conditional Violation Mode The Data100 will enter the Conditional Violation Mode (Fig.39) if you ascend shallower (Fig. 39a) than the required decompression ceiling indicated by the TLBG (Fig. 39b) and Required Stop Ceiling display (Fig. 39c). A momentary rise above the ceiling, such as with a surge or swell, will cause this to happen. Therefore you should stay slightly deeper than the exact ceiling depth, watching the Data100 closely when managing decompression. The Data100 will alert you to the Conditional Violation by flashing the Total
Fig. 39 - Conditional Violation
Ascent Time display until you descend below the required decompression stop ceiling. If you descend below the required decompression ceiling before 5 minutes have elapsed, the Data100 will continue to function as if no violation had occurred, and you will not be penalized for your breach of the ceiling. For the first 5 minutes in the Conditional Violation Mode, no off-gassing credit will be given, and for each minute above the ceiling, 11/2 minutes of penalty time is added to decompression stop time. The added penalty decompression time will have to be worked off first before obtaining off-gassing credit. Once the penalty time is worked-off, and offgassing credit begins, the TLBG will recede towards the Caution zone. Upon entry into the Caution zone the Data100 will revert to the No Decompression Mode. If you exceed 5 minutes, the TLBG segments that have filled will flash and the Delayed Violation Mode will be entered. Delayed Violation Mode Three conditions will cause the Data100 to enter the Delayed Violation Mode: 1. You remain Above the Required Decompression Ceiling for more than 5 minutes. As previously described, you would then need to follow the

ceiling toward the surface as the TLBG recedes toward the Caution zone. Upon reaching zero Total Ascent Time remaining, you should continue decompressing until the TLBG segments are well inside of the green No Decompression zone, to the left of the 12 o'clock position. 2. Your necessary decompression requires a ceiling depth between 60 and 70 feet (18 and 21 meters). The display will be the same as the Decompression Mode with all segments of the TLBG flashing (Fig. 40). Total Ascent Time needed to get back to the surface will still be displayed numerically in the Main Time display. To get back to the surface, you must safely ascend to just deeper than 60 feet (18 meters) staying as close to 60 feet (18 meters) as possible. After waiting until the TLBG recedes to the 50 FT/ 15 M zone, you can ascend to, but no shallower than 50 feet (15 meters) and continue decompressing. As the TLBG recedes into the 40 FT/ 12 M, 30 FT/ 9 M, 20 FT/ 6 M and then 10 FT/ 3 M zones, you can ascend to, but no shallower than the zone indicated. After Total Ascent Time reaches zero and the TLBG recedes into the yellow Caution zone, you can surface. However, to add a greater margin of protection, Oceanic strongly recommends that you wait until the segments are well within the 'green' No Decompression zone, unless a low air condition requires you to surface.
Fig. 40 - Delayed Violation
3. You descend deeper than 330 feet (99.5 meters). Oceanic reminds you that the Data100 is intended for no decompression diving at depths within 130 feet (39 meters). Expanded capabilities of the Data100 are provided as safety features to assist you with emergency situations. As previously described on page 38, upon descending deeper than 330 feet (99.5 meters) the TLBG will flash and the Current Depth and Max Depth displays will only indicate three dashes (Fig. 41) until ascent is made to a depth shallower than 330 feet (99.5 meters), at which time the Current Depth display will be restored. Maximum Depth will continue to display 3 dashes. Five minutes after reaching the surface from a dive in which a Delayed Violation occurred, the Data100 will enter an Immediate Violation Mode and revert to Gauge Mode for 24 hours. Immediate Violation Mode

Fig. 41 - Out of Range

Fig. 42 - Immediate Violation
WARNING: The Data100 enters Immediate Violation Mode when a situation totally exceeds its capacity to predict an ascent procedure. These dives represent gross excursions into decompression that are beyond the boundaries and spirit of the Data100 design. If you are following these dive profiles, Oceanic advises you not to use a Data100 dive computer.

Prevent Scratches with an Oceanic Lens Protector
rack, tuck the console into a BC pocket, or between the waistband and the bladder of the BC. Keep it off the deck and protected from undue shock. Better yet, if you have a console version, attach an Oceanic DataLink (Fig. 46) quick disconnect on the high pressure hose that connects your pressure gauge to your regulator first stage. This allows easy removal of the complete instrument console when not in use between dives. It also enables you to keep the Data100 nearby for recording dives in your log book or planning the next dive. During the dive, keep the Data100 from dangling freely and keep it handy underwater by using the console retainers on your BC. This will also help prevent damage to delicate corals or marine life. Soak the Data100 in fresh water at the end of each day of diving, preferably after each dive. If possible, use lukewarm water to dissolve any salt crystals. Salt deposits can also be dissolved using a slightly acidic vinegar/water bath. Be sure to flush any holes or slots on the rear of the boot. Towel dry before storing, and transport your Data100 cool, dry, and protected. WARNING: Never, under any circumstances, poke any object through any slots or holes on the rear of the Data100. Doing so may damage the depth sensor, possibly resulting in erroneous depth and/or dive time remaining displays.

ANNUAL DEALER INSPECTIONS & FACTORY SERVICE As with all Oceanic instrumentation, the Data100 should be inspected annually by an Authorized Oceanic Dealer who will perform a factory prescribed function check and inspection for damage or wear. To keep the two year limited warranty in effect, this annual inspection must be completed one year after purchase ( 30 days). Oceanic recommends that you continue to have this inspection performed even after the warranty period has expired to ensure your Data100 is working properly. A convenient service record is provided on page 80 of this owner's guide. This should be signed by the service technician after each annual inspection or factory service has been completed. The cost of this service is not covered under the terms of the two year limited warranty. WARNING: If you are in doubt about the accuracy of your Data100s depth readings, DO NOT attempt to dive with it until it has been inspected by an Authorized Oceanic Dealer. The facility providing conducting the depth check must have a test gauge on the pressure test chamber that is as accurate as the depth sensor in the Data100 ( 1% of full scale).

Fig. 49 - Battery Hatch

WARNING: DO NOT attempt to remove the outer case ring (Fig. 50a). Doing so may cause a dangerous malfunction, resulting in possible injury or death. Indication of tampering with the ring will void the warranty. Turn the unit over to drop out the two 3 volt lithium batteries. Discard, regardless of age or amount of use. Closely check the metal contacts inside the battery compartment for any signs of stress (bending or breakage), and for any signs of corrosion indicating entrance of moisture into the unit. If found, return your Data100 to an Authorized Oceanic Dealer, and DO NOT attempt to use the unit until it has received service. Battery Installation Remove and check the battery hatch as described above. If necessary to replace the battery hatch o-ring, lightly lubricate it with silicone grease and stretch it slightly to work it down over the slotted top of the hatch, DO NOT roll it over the threads. Install two new 3 volt lithium batteries (Duracell DL2032, Radio Shack 23-162, Maxell CR2032, Panasonic CR2032, or equivalent) into the battery compartment with the positive (+) side facing up (out of the battery compartment), with one directly on top of the other (Fig. 51). Avoid touching either the battery contacts or the flat surfaces of the batteries, as skin oil

will impair correct contact. Lightly lubricate the battery hatch o-ring with silicon grease and install it onto the battery hatch. DO NOT roll the o-ring over the threads of the battery hatch. Instead, stretch it slightly to work it down over the slotted end of the battery hatch and into the groove at the base of the threads. NOTE: This o-ring must be a genuine Oceanic Part, purchased from your Authorized Oceanic Dealer. Use of any other o-ring will void the warranty. Carefully insert the battery hatch into the housing and turn slowly clockwise by hand to ensure correct threading. Turn until snug, then apply a coin and tighten until secure, so the outer surface of the battery hatch is flush with the outer surface of the housing. Flooded Battery Compartment If water or corrosion is found in the battery compartment, it is best to have your Data100 inspected and cleaned by an Authorized Oceanic Dealer. If you are attempting a repair in the field, proceed as follows: Inspect the lens and case closely to ensure they are not cracked or damaged. Inspect the button covering to ensure it does not have cuts or holes.

Fig. 56 - First Dive Decompression Violation Limits
DECOMPRESSION VIOLATION LIMITS As described earlier in the Handling the Extremes section, the Data100 has two permanent violation modes, Delayed and Immediate. If either mode is entered while underwater, your Data100 will loose some functions. Figure 56, page 66, provides a graph indicating where permanent violation modes occur on a sample extreme first dive profile between 160 and 190 feet (49 and 58 meters). The graph is only an example and not a suggestion for planning a dive. It is possible to exceed the limits shown in Fig. 56 at much shallower depths, especially on repetitive dives. Watch the Data100 closely to avoid entering decompression, or a violation mode. WARNING: Oceanic recommends that you follow the rules of responsible diving on every dive and not share or swap your dive computer with any other diver. Oceanic also strongly recommends against decompression diving, or diving below 130 feet (39 meters). REPETITIVE DECOMPRESSION DIVING The decompression model used by the Data100 is based on the no decompression multilevel repetitive dive schedules successfully tested by Dr. Ray Rogers and Dr. Michael Powell. These tests did not include repetitive dives deeper than 90 feet (27 meters), or Decompression dives. Due to the present unavailability of statistical data, Data100 decompression predictions are based on U.S. Navy theory. Therefore, pay special attention to the following warnings:
WARNING: Oceanic advocates responsible diving practices and does not recommend decompression diving, or diving below 130 feet (39 meters). The decompression capabilities of the Data100 are intended strictly for emergency use. Decompression diving is inherently hazardous and greatly increases your risk of decompression sickness - even when performed according to the computer's calculations. In the event that you must make an emergency decompression dive, you must not make another dive for at least 24 hours. WARNING: Using the Data100, just as using the U.S. Navy (or other) No Decompression Tables, is no guarantee of avoiding decompression sickness, i.e. the bends.

CONCLUSION The Data100 is only an informational tool whose entire worth depends on using it correctly. Learn how to use it and use it wisely. Have fun with the Data100, and thank you for being a responsible diver!
RESPONSIBLE COMPUTER DIVING Since the advent of dive computers, it is a common mistake to assume that the old traditional rules of diving no longer apply, but the truth is just the opposite. Before you dive using your Data100, keep these basic rules in mind:
Plan each dive, and dive your plan - Your computer was not designed to make decisions for you, only to provide you with the information you need to make responsible decisions for yourself. This begins with a dive plan that will help you avoid a low air or decompression situation. Do not plan any dive that exceeds your training or experience level. Inspect your computer before every dive - If it shows any signs of damage or abnormal function, DO NOT dive with it until it has received factory service. Make your deepest dive first - When making repetitive dives, it is imperative to ensure that each consecutive dive is shallower than the one before. This will allow your body's slower tissues to continue outgassing nitrogen. Make the deepest part of your dive first, and gradually work your way to the surface using a staircase profile - The ability to perform multilevel diving is one of the most important contributions of a dive computer, and you should take advantage of it. It will increase your bottom time and at the same time decrease your risk of decompression sickness. Ascend slowly by following an ascent line whenever possible, or by ascending diagonally toward the surface - Watch the Variable Ascent Rate Indicator while you ascend, and keep your ascent as slow as possible. Make a safety stop at 15-20 feet (5-6.5 meters) at the end of every dive - A safety stop of as little as 5 minutes has been shown to have a dramatic effect on the bubble formation in divers. It's important. Don't forget it.
