the UDI-28 TM . Please read carefully all warnings in this document and disclaimers in each specific chapter
of the user manual.
The UDI-28 TM is a computation hardware device combined with software applications that implements a
digital compass, depth measurements, navigation or tracking after acoustical signals, text messages,
gauge mode computations and alert signal communication. The UDI-28
in one unit.
The UDI-28 TM is not a primary device but only an aid to send and receive text messages, to be used as
an aid in navigation or tracking after an acoustical signal, as an aid for digital compass and as an aid to
send and receive emergency signals. The UDI-28
is unlikely that you will be hurt by the instrument itself any more than you might be hurt by any other
object of similar shape, size and weight. The main danger in the use of UDI-28
information it provides. As an electronic system it might fail spontaneously and unexpectedly due to
component, batteries or software failure. As an acoustical device based system, it can fail at any time due
to changing environmental (acoustic) conditions or internal damages of the acoustical antenna.
