As soon as the SYMBIOS TANK POD with more than 2 bar, it will start transmitting tank pressure as well as position data.
•Tank pressure is transmitted approximately each 4 s.
•Position data are transmitted in 1 s intervals.
Pairing
Pairing of SYMBIOS TANK POD is done in two steps.
1.Pressurize the SYMBIOS TANK POD. Pair the SYMBIOS TANK POD to a Gas setting in menu/SETTINGS/PAIRING/TANK POD/TO GAS or alternatively to an independent tank pressure transmitter setting in menu/SETTINGS/PAIRING/TANK_POD/TO NUMBER on the dive computer.
2.Pair the SYMBIOS TANK POD tilt sensor in menu/SETTINGS/PAIRING/TILT SENSOR
For further information please refer to the dive computer manual.
Replacement of the battery
The CR123 battery can be replaced by the user.
1.detatch the SYMBIOS TANK POD with more than first stage pressure regulator
2.remove the 3 screws with a TORX T10 screwdriver.
3.replace the battery
4.slighly lube a new o-ring (26x2 NBR 70) with silicon grease
5.replace the o-ring (26x2 NBR 70)
6.install the cap and secure it with the 3 screws.
Enabling or disabling position data transmissions
Position data transmission can be enabled or disabled. There are several situations where the diver might prefer to have no transmisison of position data:
•If one uses the SYMBIOS TANK POD with stage tanks, where position information may not make much sense
•If the diver uses several wireless devices simultaneously and wants to reduce data traffic
•If the diver wants to preserve battery power
Position data transmission is enabled/disabled by installing the battery in 2 orientations.
If the positive terminal of the battery is oriented towards the high pressure port, the position data transmission is disabled.
If the negative terminal of the battery is oriented towards the high pressure port, the position data transmission is enabled
When the SYMBIOS TANK POD is not pressurized, it will neither transmit pressure nor position data to reduce power consumption.
Depressurize the SYMBIOS TANK POD on the surface in order to reduce the power consumption.
Longer maintenance and/or repair actions are not required.
