• The DSX enters Violation Mode (see "Complications" p. 54) when a situation exceeds its capacity to predict an ascent procedure. These dives represent gross excursions into decompression that are beyond the boundaries and spirit of the DSX's design. If you are following these dive profiles, Apeks advises that you should not use a DSX.

CHARGING THE BATTERY Use either the included Apeks USB charging cable or wireless charging plate to charge the battery. NOTE: It is recommended that you charge your DSX before any extended storage to avoid loss of battery performance or shortened battery life.
As you ascend, the N2 Bar Graph will recede as control shifts to slower compartments. This is a feature of the decompression model that is the basis for multilevel diving, one of the most important advantages that Apeks dive computers offer.
PROXIMITY OF THE TMTS (TRANSMITTERS) AND DSX The DSX can be used with the Apeks Transmitter (P/N NS119115). The TMTs emit low frequency signals that radiate out in semicircular patterns parallel to the length dimension of the TMT. A coiled antenna inside the DSX wrist unit receives the signals when it is positioned within a zone parallel to or at a 45 degree angle to the TMT as illustrated.
DSX's design. If you are following these dive profiles, Apeks advises that you should not use an DSX. • If you exceed certain limits, the DSX will not be able to help you get safely back to the surface.
The DSX can use up to 6 transmitters (P/N NS119115) in Dive Mode to monitor gas supplies. The Transmitters Menu allows for the programming of the wrist unit to receive the signals from selected Apeks transmitters. See the Dive Mode Features section (p. 21) for further information on transmitters.

ONLY use the cable that ships with your DSX. The cable serial number (labeled on the cable) must match the serial number that displays on your DSX (O2 Analyzer Sub Menu) screen. Contact your Apeks Dealer for assistance if the Oxygen Analyzer cable ever needs to be replaced. O2 ANALYZER...
USE ONLY WITH that displays on your DSX (O2 Analyzer Sub Menu) screen. Contact O2-000000 your Apeks Dealer for assistance if the Oxygen Analyzer cable ever needs to be replaced. CALIBRATION Changing enviornmental conditions and the diminishing output of an O sensor can affect the gas analysis.
DSX may require you to calibrate again. If this is the case, the DSX will prompt you to do so. 1. Start with dry breathing grade gas from a reputable supplier. 2. Confirm Helium content separately with a helium analyzer if using a helium mix. The Apeks O2 Analyzer is not capable of analyzing helium.
If required to return your DSX to Apeks: • Obtain an RA (Return Authorization) number by contacting your regional Apeks customer service. www.apeks- diving.com • Record all dive data in the Log and/or download the data stored in memory. All data will be erased during factory service.

• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician. CAUTION: Changes or modification to this unit not expressly approved by Apeks could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
