PATENT NOTICE
U.S. Patents have been issued, or applied for, to protect the following design features:

DECOMPRESSION MODEL
The programs within the GEO 2 simulate the absorption of nitrogen into the body by using a mathematical model. This
model is merely a way to apply a limited set of data to a large range of experiences. The GEO 2 dive computer model
is based upon the latest research and experiments in decompression theory. Still, using the GEO 2, just as using
the U.S. Navy (or other) No Decompression Tables, is no guarantee of avoiding decompression sick-
ness, i.e. “the bends.” Every diver’s physiology is different, and can even vary from day to day. No machine can
predict how your body will react to a particular dive profile.

PC INTERFACE
Interface with a PC, to allow uploading settings and downloading data, is accomplished
by connecting the GEO 2 to a PC USB Port using the special USB Interface Cable.
The software program together with the USB Driver required is on the Oceanlog CD, and
can be downloaded from the OceanicWorldwide web site. The program's HELP** serves
as the user manual which can be printed for personal use.
**Prior to attempting to download data from your GEO 2 or upload settings to it,
review the HELP section of the Oceanlog program. Recommended is to print those
sections of HELP that you consider appropriate for your Interface activities.
The settings upload portion of the Oceanlog program can be used to set/change the Main
Time, Date, Set A group (Alarms), Set U group (Utilities), and FREE mode items using the
same Interface System. FO2 must be set using the control buttons.
Information available for retrieval (download) from the GEO 2 to the PC download portion
of the program includes dive data such as number, surface interval time, maximum depth,
elapsed dive time, no deco status, start date/time, lowest temperature under water, sam-
pling rate, dive profile, and set points.
The Oceanlog program also allows upgrade of select versions of the GEO 2's firmware
(operating system software) after which the GEO 2 resets all operating data. Since the
upgrades require reset of the GEO 2, they are blocked during 24 hours after dives.
• Refer to page 92 for more details relating to Oceanlog and PC Interface.

WATCH MAIN (DEFAULT) TIME
Selection of Main (Default) Time is a Set T menu item.
Time of day and date can be set when either Home or Away time is selected as the
default.
Main Time is the current time at your home location and is normally selected as the Watch
Default Time.
Away Time, set by Hour Differential, is the current Time at a remote travel location. Upon
arrival at the location, Away Time can be interchanged with Main Time to make it the
Default Time while visiting the travel location.
Dual Time is the second, or differential time, that can be displayed simultaneously with
Main Time with set On. It is a +/- Hour Differential based on the Time that is set while at
home or the opposite if set while away.
Once Dual Time (a differential) is set, it will automatically change when Time of Day is
changed. When Away Time is selected to be the Watch Default Time (while at a travel
location), it will be changed directly when Time of Day is changed and Home Time will
then change by a differential opposite the one set for Dual Time.

DIVE COMPUTER OPERATING MODES
NORM Mode >> for Air and Nitrox SCUBA activity with 1 or 2 Gases
GAUG Mode >> for SCUBA activity
FREE Mode >> for breath hold diving activity with Depth/Time indication
If no previous dive has been taken within the past 24 hours, NORM is the default upon
access from Watch Mode. Others can be accessed using the Surface Menu.
At any time while operating in Surface Modes, operation will enter the Dive Mode se-
lected upon descent to 5 FT (1.5 M) for 5 seconds.
Operation will revert from Dive Mode to Surface Mode upon ascent to 2 FT (0.6 M) for 1
second.
During the first 10 minutes after a NORM/GAUG dive, or 1 minute after a FREE dive, the
Dive Main screen will remain on displaying Max Depth and Elapsed Dive together with
Surface Interval Time in place of Current Depth.
• During the first 10 minutes (or 1 minute), Dive ALT screens can be viewed.
• A descent during the first 10 minutes after surfacing from a NORM or GAUG dive,
or the first 1 minute after surfacing from a FREE dive, is a continuation of that dive.
• After the 10 minute (or 1 minute) interval has elapsed, the normal Surface Main will
be displayed with access given to the Surface Menu selections. A descent is then
considered a new dive.

FLY/SAT TIME
Time to Fly is a countdown timer that begins counting down from 23:50 to 0:00 (hr:min)
10 minutes after surfacing from a dive (NORM, GAUG, or FREE).
Time to Dsaturate, also a countdown timer, provides calculated time for tissue desaturation
at sea level taking into consideration the Conservation Factor setting. It also begins count-
ing down 10 minutes after surfacing from a dive (NORM or FREE), counting down from
23 to 10 (hr only), then 9:59 to 0:00 (hr:min).
When the SAT countdown reaches 0:00, which will generally occur prior to the FLY count-
down reaching 0:00, it will remain on the display until the FLY countdown reaches 0:00.

FO2 Gas 1 will continue to reset to the FO2 50% Default after subsequent repetitive dives
until 24 hours elapse after the last dive, or the FO2 50% Default is set Off.
FO2 set to Air
The default FO2 setting for Gas 1 each new activation period will be Air.
When FO2 Gas 1 is set for Air -
> calculations are the same as when FO2 is set for 21%.
> it will remain set for Air until set for a numerical FO2 value (21 to 100%).
> O2 data (such as PO2, O2%) will not be displayed at any time during the dive, on
the surface, or during the PDPS.
> MODs (Max Operating Depths) will not be displayed on the FO2 set screen.
> internally, it will keep track of O2 data in case FO2 for Gas 1 is subsequently set for
Nitrox for repetitive dives.
FO2 set for Nitrox
When FO2 for either Gas is set for a numerical value (21 to 100%), the dive is considered
Nitrox and the NX icon will be displayed.
> The Air option will not be displayed as a Set FO2 for Gas 1 set selection until 24
hours elapse after the last dive.
> There are no restrictions for setting FO2 values for Gas 1 and 2.

a
The GEO 2 features 2 specific bar graphs.
> The one on the left represents nitrogen loading. It is
referred to as the TLBG (Tissue Loading Bar Graph).
> The one on the right represents ascent rate. It is referred to
as the VARI (Variable Ascent Rate Indicator).
TLBG (NORM/FREE)
Fig. 66 - NO DECO
The TLBG represents your relative No Deco (Fig. 66a) or Deco
status (Fig. 67a). The first 4 segments represent No Deco status
and the fifth indicates a Deco condition.
As your Depth and Elapsed Dive Time increase segments add.
As you ascend segments recede, indicating that additional no
deco time is available.
a
The GEO 2 monitors 12 different nitrogen compartments simulta-
neously and the TLBG displays the one that is in control of your
dive at any given time.

ALGORITHM
The GEO 2 is configured with 2 algorithms which allows you to choose which set of NDLs
(No Deco Limits) will be used for nitrogen/oxygen calculations and displays relating to
Plan and DTR (Dive Time Remaining).
You can select to use either the DSAT or the PZ+. The selection will lock in for 24 hours
after the last dive.
DSAT has been the standard used by Oceanic in all of its dive computers until this
time. It features NDLs that are based on exposures and test data which also formed
validation for the PADI RDP. It imposes restrictions for repetitive Deco dives, consid-
ered more risky.
PZ+ (Pelagic Z+) performance is based on Buhlmann ZHL-16c. It features NDLs that
are considerably more conservative especially at shallower depths.
To create even greater margins of safety with respect to decompression, a Conservative
Factor as well as No Deco Deep and Safety Stops can be included for No Deco dives.
CONSERVATIVE FACTOR (CF)
When the CF is set On, the NDLs which are based on the algorithm selected and used for
Ni/O2 calculations and displays relating to Plan and DTR, will be reduced to the values
available at the altitude level that is 3,000 feet (915 meters) higher. Refer to the charts in
the back of this manual for times.

DEEP STOP (DS), No Deco only
When the DS selection is set On, it will trigger during NORM No Deco dives when you
descend to 80 FT (24 M), then calculate (and continually update) a Stop Depth equal to
1/2 the Max Depth.
While 10 FT (3 M) deeper than the calculated DS, you will be able to access a DS Pre-
view screen that will display the current DS Stop Depth/Time.
Upon initial ascent to within 10 FT (3 M) below the calculated Stop Depth, a DS screen
displaying a Stop Depth at 1/2 the Max Depth will appear with a Countdown Timer
beginning at 2:00 (min:sec) and counting down to 0:00.
> If you descend 10 FT (3 M) below, or ascend 10 FT (3 M) above, the calculated Stop
Depth for 10 seconds during the countdown, the No Deco Main will replace the
DS Main display and the DS feature will be disabled for the remainder of that dive.
There is no Penalty if the DS is ignored.
> In the event that you enter Deco, exceed 190 FT (57 M), or a High O2 condition (=>
80%) occurs, the DS will be disabled for the remainder of that dive.
> The DS is disabled during a High PO2 Alarm condition (=> Set Point).
SAFETY STOP (SS), No Deco only
If set On:
Upon ascent to within 5 FT (1.5 M) deeper than the SS Depth set for 1 second on a No
Deco dive in which Depth exceeded 30 FT (9 M) for 1 second, a beep will sound and a
SS at the Depth set will appear on the Main display with a countdown beginning at the SS
Time set and counting down to 0:00 (min:sec).
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
67
• If the SS was set for OFF or Timer, the display will not appear.
• In the event that you descend 10 FT (3 M) deeper than the Stop Depth for 10 seconds
during the countdown, or the countdown reaches 0:00, the No Deco Main screen
will replace the SS Main screen which will reappear upon ascent to within 5 FT (1.5
M) deeper than the Safety Stop Depth set for 1 second.
• In the event that you enter Deco during the dive, complete the Deco obligation, then
descend below 30 FT (9 M); the SS Main will appear again upon ascent to within 5
FT (1.5 M) deeper than the SS Depth set for 1 second.
• If you ascend 2 FT (0.6 M) shallower than the SS Depth for 10 seconds prior to
completing it, the SS will be canceled for the remainder of that dive.
• There is no Penalty if you surface prior to completing the SS or ignore it.
If set for Timer On:
Upon ascending to 20 FT (6 M) for 1 second on a No Deco dive in which Depth exceed-
ed 30 FT (9 M) for 1 second, 1 beep will sound and a Run Timer will appear (if set On)
displaying 0:00 (min:sec) until started.
• If the SS was set for Off or On, the Timer display will not appear.
• If you descend deeper than 30 FT (9 M) for 10 seconds, the No Deco Main will
replace the Timer screen which will reappear upon ascent to 20 FT (6 M) for 1
second.
• If you ascend above 10 FT (3 M) for 10 seconds, or enter Deco, or a High O2 alarm
condition occurs (100%), while the SS Timer is active, the SS Timer will be disabled
for the remainder of that dive.

DTR (DIVE TIME REMAINING)
The GEO 2 constantly monitors No Deco status and O2 Ac-
cumulation, and will display whichever Time is the least amount
available as DTR on the No Deco Dive Main screen. The Time
being displayed will be identified by the NDC or O2 icon.
NDC (No Deco DTR)
NDC is the maximum amount of time that you can stay at your
present Depth before entering Deco. It is calculated based on
the amount of nitrogen absorbed by hypothetical tissue compart-
ments.
The rates each of these compartments absorb and release
nitrogen is mathematically modeled and compared against a
maximum allowable nitrogen level.
Whichever one is closest to this maximum level is the controlling
compartment for that Depth. Its resulting value (NDC) will be
displayed as DTR (Fig. 70a). It will also be displayed graphi-
cally as the TLBG (Fig. 70b).
b
a
As you ascend, the TLBG segments 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 Oceanic dive computers offer.

OTR (O2 DTR)
a
When set for Nitrox operation, O2 during a dive is displayed
on an ALT screen as a % of allowed saturation (Fig. 71a) identi-
fied by the O2SAT icons.
The limit for O2 exposure (100%) is set at 300 OTU (oxygen
tolerance units) per dive or 24 hour period. As time before
reaching the limit decreases, % O2 increases and OTR (O2
DTR) decreases.
Fig. 71 - NO DECO ALT 1
When OTR becomes less than the NDC, calculations for the dive
will be controlled by O2 and OTR will be displayed as DTR on
the Main (Fig. 72a), identified by the O2 and min icons.

To fulfill your decompression obligation, you should make a safe controlled Ascent to a
depth slightly deeper than, or equal to, the required Stop Depth indicated and decompress
for the Stop Time indicated.
The amount of decompression credit time that you receive is dependent on Depth, with
slightly less credit given the deeper you are below the Stop Depth indicated.
You should stay slightly deeper than the required Stop Depth indicated until the next shal-
lower Stop Depth appears. Then, you can slowly ascend to, but not shallower than that
indicated Stop Depth.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT
The Battery Compartment should only be opened in a dry and
clean environment with extreme care taken to prevent the en-
trance of moisture or dust.
As an additional precautionary measure to prevent formation
of moisture in the Battery Compartment, it is recommended that
the Battery be changed in an environment equivalent to the local
outdoor temperature and humidity (e.g., do not change the Bat-
tery in an air conditioned environment then take it outside during
a hot sunny day).
Fig. 132A - COVER
REMOVAL (using tool)
Inspect the Buttons, Lens, and Housing to ensure they are not
cracked or damaged. If there is any sign of moisture in the
GEO 2, DO NOT attempt to use it for diving until it receives
proper service by an authorized Oceanic facility.

If any portions of the display are missing or appear dim, or if a Low
Battery Condition is indicated, return your GEO 2 to an Authorized Oceanic
Dealer for a complete evaluation before attempting to use it.
ALTITUDE SENSING AND ADJUSTMENT
Altitude (i.e., ambient pressure) is measured upon activation and every 15 minutes until a
dive is made.
> Measurements are only taken when the unit is dry.
> Two readings are taken, the second reading 5 seconds after the first. The readings
must be within 1 foot (30 cm) of each other to record that ambient pressure as the
current Altitude.
> No adjustments are made during any time that the Wet Contacts are bridged.
> When diving in high altitude waters from 3,001 to 14,000 feet (916 to 4,270
meters), the GEO 2 automatically adjusts to these conditions providing corrected
Depth, and reduced No Deco and O2 Times at intervals of 1,000 feet (305 meters).
> When the Conservative Factor is set On, NDLs are calculated based upon the next
higher 3,000 foot (915 meter) Altitude.
> At Sea Level, calculations are based upon an Altitude of 6,000 feet.
> All adjustments for Altitudes greater than 11,000 feet (3,355 meters) are then made
to allowable dive times for 14,000 feet (4,270 meters).
> The GEO 2 will not function as a Dive Computer above 14,000 feet (4,270 meters).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION PERTAINING TO FREE DIVE MODE
•
•
Although breathing apparatus is not utilized for Free Dive activities, nitrogen tissue loading
remains a factor. Nitrogen loading is calculated based upon a fixed FO2 of Air.
Since a user has the option of alternating between SCUBA and Free Dive activities within a 24
hour period, nitrogen calculations and the displayed value of No Deco Dive Time Remaining
(NDC time) are carried over from one operating mode to the other, which permits the user to
maintain awareness of nitrogen absorption and offgasing status.
•
•
The mathematical models currently used in the GEO 2 are based on no decompression/
decompression multilevel repetitive dive schedules.
These algorithms do not take into account the physiological changes associated with the high
pressures that competitive type Free diving can expose a diver to.
ADDITIONAL WARNINGS
• Ensure that you know which Operating Mode is selected (NORM, GAUG, or FREE)
prior to commencing any dive.
• Conducting Free dives within a 24 hour period after conducting SCUBA dives,
combined with the effects of multiple rapid Free Dive ascents, increases your risk
of decompression sickness. Such activities may result in accelerated entry into
decompression which could cause serious injury or death.
• Combining competitive type Free dive activities that involve multiple descents/
ascents with activities utilizing SCUBA during the same 24 hour period is not
recommended. Presently, there is no data relating to such activities.
• It is highly recommended that anyone planning to become involved in
competitive type Free dive activities obtain proper instruction and training from
a recognized Free Diving trainer. It is imperative that the physiological affects
be understood and the diver is physically prepared.
