Transceiver Settings

You can customize the settings for paired transceivers prior to a dive.

On the paired Descent™ watch, hold MENU, select Dive Setup > Dive Network & Air Integration > Transmitters, and select a transceiver.

NOTE: Some settings are available only for your own transceiver or another diver's transceiver.
Status

Enables a connection to the transceiver, and shows the current connection status. Connected transceivers show data during a dive and can send or receive messages.

Placement

Sets the transceiver location as either your own tank or that of another diver.

Public Tank Name

Allows you to associate a name with your transceiver, which will be visible to your dive network.

NOTE: If you customize this name, another option appears in the list to clear the name.
Nickname

Allows you to associate a nickname with another diver's transceiver, which will be visible on your dive data screens. This setting does not change the name that appears for other divers.

NOTE: If you customize this name, another option appears in the list to clear the name.
Identify

Plays a tone on the selected paired transceiver. This helps you to identify the transceiver without needing to look at the transceiver ID printed on the transceiver housing.

Working Pressure

Sets how much pressure the tank has when full. This value is used to determine the upper end of the pressure gauge, and to calculate respiratory minute volume (RMV) for tanks using psi units.

Reserve Pressure

Sets the threshold values for reserve pressure and critical pressure alerts to appear on the watch.

Volume

Allows you to enter the air volume of the tank. You can use the Reset Volume option if you move the transceiver to a different size tank.

NOTE: This value is required to calculate volumetric surface air consumption (SAC) and respiratory minute volume (RMV) (Selecting the Gas Consumption Rate Metric).
SAC/RMV/ATR

Enables calculations for volumetric surface air consumption (SAC), respiratory minute volume (RMV), and air time remaining (ATR) estimates for your transceiver.

Set Transmit Power

Allows you to adjust the power setting if your transceiver is losing connection with the paired watch underwater.

About

Displays the transceiver ID, software version, and battery status.

Remove

Allows you to remove a paired transceiver.

Software Update

If an update is available, allows you to update the transceiver software using your watch (Updating the Transceiver Software Using Your Watch).
