Every time Contacts 1 & 2 are bridged with wet fingers, the unit will stay on for one full hour. The EMC-16 will not turn on if the altitude is greater than 16,000 feet or if the battery voltage is less than 2.0 volts, or a fault is detected during the self-test.

There is no compensation above 75 degrees F. Pressure to determine Altitude. Barometric Altitude can vary from actual Bottom Time will begin once the EMC-16 senses that the diver has Altitude by over +/- 1000 feet! What is important to the body when diving descended below five feet (see Training Mode) and continues until the is “Barometric Altitude”.

The EMC-16 will track the OTU based on Dr. Bill Hamilton’s ‘REPEX’ The Maximum Depth will be replaced with “S-d“ or "S--" to indicate the low- method of oxygen exposure management.

EMC-16 allows the diver to use two different gas blends during a dive. These two gas blends are commonly referred to as the Normal or Bottom Gas Blend and the Decompression Gas Blend.

"99" the TACLITE™ will stay on all the time and only turn off when Selectable Variable-By-Depth Ascent Rate Alarm (On or Off): This the EMC-16 does. From the factory this is set to 10. This option may also option gives the diver the ability to utilize a fixed ascent rate warning or a be set via the Touch Contact Programming method.

This option enables the Training Mode for the EMC-16. In this mode the EMC-16 will enter the Dive Mode at 2 feet instead of 5 feet and exit the Dive Mode at 1 foot instead of 3 feet. The Training Mode also permits the selection of an increased Post Dive Interval period from 10 to 30 minutes in one-minute increments.
