Apeks DSX Dive Computer with O2 Analyzer

Item No. NS158000 Color: Black/Silver

The DSX technical dive computer is the latest in wearable technology for the serious technical diver, or the diver just looking for the finest instrument on the market, to take them to the next level. Robust as only Apeks knows how, and fully loaded with cutting edge features, including sidemount and CCR mode, induction or cable charging and management of up to 6 gasses. The DSX is primed and ready to take you on your next adventure.
Wireless Bluetooth Smart connectivity lets you wirelessly sync your dive data with the DiverLog+ app on your mobile device (available for iOS and Android). With your DiverLog+ app, you can remotely control all your dive computer settings, view dive log and profle data, add locations, notes and other details from your adventures. After your dive, share your memories, stats, photos, and dive site locations on social media.

The DSX is an easy to use dive computer utilizing a three button interface. Divers may choose between five modes of functionality consisting of CC (Closed Circuit), OC (Open Circuit), SM (Side Mount), Gauge, and SM (Side Mount) Gauge Mode. Though the DSX is easy to use, you will get the most out of your new DSX if you take some time to familiarize yourself with its displays and operation. Information has been organized into easy to follow sections to aid you in learning all you need to know. There is also a glossary at the end of this guide for any terms that may sound unfamiliar.

Read and understand this manual thoroughly before using the DSX.
