Calibration

How do Prism owners currently calibrate their analogue secondary? Do you have to send it back to SMI periodicly to verify its accuracy?

What are you fishing for Steve?

Use a trim pot as a voltage divider just like calibrating any other voltmeter. Three of them in the head in the 1 ata compartment. Trim pots are user replaceable.

Steve stop drinking beer and that Rum and Coke I just poured for you and go out to the Garage and figure it out yourself, the manual is next to my unit

Not fishing at all. All the panel metres I have ever used needed calibration on an annual basis. How often does the PRISM one get done?

Chris,

Go to the beer fridge and bring me beer.

Chris,

Hope that nasty wind thing is not too close to you over there, else sending someone out to get you a beer is rather mean,......

Unless its the wife, and the chain will save her from going up in the twister!

;-)

PS - From a old Cairns person, make sure the chain is attached to something heavy.

Hi Def
No, down in Perth the wind is way up north, should make for a good surf for the weekend though. I dont think we have any members from up there on Rebreather World, nice diving but a scary place when the wind gets up.

As for the wife, damn I thought I forgot the chain

Cheers
Chriso

You see, this illustrates the fundamental design flaw in the system we're talking about.

My beer fridge is INSIDE.

You only have one?

I have 2 in the basement. One in the garage. One by the pool. One in the bedroom. And one in the Kitchen..
