PATENT NOTICE  
U.S. Patents have been issued, or applied for, to protect the following design features:  
Dive Time Remaining (U.S. Patent no. 4,586,136), Data Sensing and Processing Device (U.S. Patent no. 4,882,678), and Variable Ascent Rate Indicator (U.S. Patent no. 5,156,055). User Setable Display

DECOMPRESSION MODEL  
The programs within the BUD 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  
BUD dive computer model is based upon the latest research and experiments in decompression theory. Still, using the BUD, just as using the U.S. Navy (or other) No Decompression Tables,  
is no guarantee of avoiding decompression sickness, 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.

CONTROL BUTTON (B)  
a
The Control Button (B) allows you to select display options and access specific information when you want to see it.  
BAR GRAPHS  
TLBG (Tissue Loading Bar Graph)  
The TLBG (Fig. 1a) represents tissue loading of nitrogen, showing your relative no decompression or decompression status. As  
your depth and elapsed dive time increase, segments will add to the TLBG, and as you ascend to shallower depths, the segments  
will begin to recede, indicating that additional no decompression time is allowed for multilevel diving.  
Fig. 1 - TLBG  
a
The TLBG monitors 12 different nitrogen compartments simultaneously and displays the one that is in control of your dive.  
It is divided into a No Decompression zone (up to 3 segments displayed), a Caution zone (4 segments displayed, also No Deco),  
and a Decompression zone (all 5 segments displayed).  
While you cannot provide a guarantee against the occurrence of decompression sickness, you may choose your own personal  
zone of caution based upon age, physique, excessive weight, etc., to reduce the statistical risk.  
Fig. 2 - VARI  
VARI (Variable Ascent Rate Indicator)  
The VARI (Fig. 2a) provides a visual representation of ascent speed (i.e., an ascent speedometer).  
The segments of the VARI represent two sets of speeds which change at a reference depth of 60 FT (18 M). Refer to the chart for  
segment values.  
WARNING: At depths greater than 60 FT (18 M), ascent rates should not exceed 60 FPM (18 MPM). At depths of  
60 FT (18 M) and shallower, ascent rates should not exceed 30 FPM (9 MPM).  
When Ascent is too fast, (i.e., greater than 60/30 FPM, or 18/9 MPM), all segments will flash and the graphic SLOW will be  
displayed (Fig. 3) until ascent is slowed.

Fig. 7 - LOW BATTERY  
WARNING  
Voltage level is checked upon activation and every minute during operation on the surface.  
• When voltage decreases to the warning level (2.75 volts), the icon is displayed solid on the Surface Main (Fig. 7a).  
• Upon decreasing to a voltage level that will no longer sustain proper operation (2.50 volts), the icon will flash 5 times and  
the unit will shut off.  
• If a low battery condition exists when the unit is activated (by pressing the button), the graphic bAT and the icon will appear  
flashing for 5 seconds and the unit will shut off.  
• If the button is not pressed to activate the unit prior to a dive, and a low battery condition exists, the icon will appear flashing  
as a warning upon descent to 5 FT (1.5 M) and no other information will be displayed.  
• If a low battery condition occurs during a dive, there will be sufficient battery power to maintain operation for the remainder  
of that dive. Upon entry into Surface Mode, the Battery icon will appear (shell only with no inner bar) with the graphics CHG  
BAT flashing (Fig. 8).

BUD OPERATING MANUAL  
ACTIVATION  
To Activate the BUD, press and release B (the button).  
• The unit will enter Diagnostic mode (Fig. 9), displaying all segments of the LCD as 8's, followed by dashes ( - - ), then a  
countdown from 9 to 0, checking the display and battery voltage to ensure that everything is within tolerance and functioning  
properly.  
• After manual activation, it will also check the ambient barometric pressure, and calibrate its present depth as zero. Begin-  
ning at elevations of 3,001 feet (916 meters), it will recalibrate depth and adjust calculations every 2,000 feet (610 meters).  
Fig. 9 - DIAGNOSTIC  
The BUD will also automatically activate by water contact. This is accomplished by bridging the gap between contacts located  
on the button and case.  
If no dive is made within 2 hours after initial activation, the unit will automatically deactivate. If the wet contacts are still bridged,  
the unit will reactivate.  
WARNING: If the unit is activated at elevations higher than 14,000 feet (4,267 meters), it will perform a diagnos-  
tic check and immediately shutdown.

BUD OPERATING MANUAL  
FLY/DESAT TIME  
Time to Fly is a timer that counts down from 23:50 to 0:00 (hr:min) beginning 10 minutes after surfacing from a dive.  
Time to Desaturate provides calculated time for tissue desaturation at sea level. It also begins counting down 10 minutes after  
surfacing from a dive, counting down from a maximum of 23:50 to 0:00 (hr:min).  
It generally starts at times much lower than 23:50 and reaches 0:00 before the Fly countdown reaches 0:00.  
> When other screens are displayed while on the surface, the countdowns continue in the background.  
> Desat Time is not displayed after a Violation dive.  
> In the event that Desat Time still remains at the end of 24 hours, any remaining time will be cleared.

BUD OPERATING MANUAL  
FEATURES  
ALGORITHM  
The BUD 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 Z+. The selection will lock in for 24 hours after the last dive.  
DSAT 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, considered more risky.  
Z+ (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 No Deco Safety Stop can be performed for No Deco dives.  
SAFETY STOP (SS), No Deco only  
Upon ascent to 20 FT (6 M) for 1 second on a No Deco dive in which Depth exceeded 30 FT (9 M) for 1 second, a SS to be taken at 15 FT (4.5 M) will  
appear on the Main display with a countdown beginning at 3:00 (min:sec).  
• In the event that you descend 10 FT (3 M) below the SS Depth for 10 seconds during the countdown, or the countdown reaches 0:00; the No Deco  
Main will replace the SS Main which will reappear upon ascent to 20 FT (6 M) 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 20 FT (6 M) for 1 second.  
• If you surface during the SS countdown, 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.  
DTR (DIVE TIME REMAINING)  
The BUD constantly monitors No Deco status and O2 accumulation, 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 ab-  
sorbed by hypothetical tissue compartments.  
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 and the  
TLBG.  
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 TIME REMAINING)  
When set for Nitrox operation, O2 during a dive is displayed on an ALT screen as a % of allowed saturation.  
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 (time allowed) decreases.  
When OTR (time) becomes less than the NDC (time), calculations for the dive will be controlled by O2 and OTR will be displayed as DTR on the Dive  
Main.

DECOMPRESSION  
Decompression mode activates when theoretical No Decompression time and depth limits are exceeded.  
Upon entry into Deco, the full TLBG will flash (Fig. 27) for 10 seconds. The Stop Depth digits will flash while 10 FT (3 M) below  
the required Stop Depth.  
Fig. 26 - SS MAIN  
> Once within 10 FT (3 M) below the required Stop Depth (stop zone), the Stop Depth digits will stop flashing.  
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 shallower Stop Depth appears. Then, you  
can slowly ascend to, but not shallower than that indicated Stop Depth.

While above the Sop, the graphic DOWN alternates with the Stop Time digits while the Stop Depth digits flash (Fig. 32).  
If you descend deeper than the required Deco Stop before 5 minutes elapse, Deco operation will continue with no off gassing  
credit given for time above the Stop. Instead, for each minute above the Stop 1-1/2 minutes of penalty time will be added to  
required Stop Time.  
> The added penalty (Deco) time will have to be worked off before obtaining off gassing credit.  
> Once the penalty time is worked off, and off gassing credit begins, required Deco Stop Depths and Time will decrease  
toward zero. The TLBG will recede into the No Deco zone and operation will revert to No Deco mode.

DV 1 (DELAYED VIOLATION 1)  
If you remain shallower than a Deco Stop Depth for more than 5 minutes, operation will enter DV 1* which is a continuation of  
CV with penalty time still being added.  
The graphic DOWN will alternate with Stop Time while the full TLBG and Stop Depth digits flash (Fig. 33), until descent is made  
to below the Stop Depth indicated.  
Fig. 33 - DV1 MAIN  
*The difference is that 5 minutes after surfacing from the dive, operation will now enter Violation Gauge Mode.  
After 5 minutes on the surface following a DV1, operation enters Violation Gauge Mode.  
DV 2 (DELAYED VIOLATION 2)  
If the calculated Deco obligation requires a Stop Depth between 60 FT (18 M) and 70 FT (21 M), operation will enter DV 2.  
The full TLBG and Stop Depth digits will flash (Fig. 34) for 10 seconds.

DV 3 (DELAYED VIOLATION 3)  
If you descend deeper than the MOD*, DTR and Current Depth will be displayed as with the Depth ones flashing (Fig. 35).  
Max Depth on the ALT will also be displayed as 3 dashes.  
*MOD is the Max Operating Depth at which the BUD can properly perform calculations or provide accurate display information. Refer to the  
Specifications in the back.  
Upon ascending above the MOD, Current Depth will be restored, however, Max Depth will continue to be displayed as dashes  
for the remainder of that dive.

DTR will be restored if it is accurate, or remain as dashes if not.  
VGM (VIOLATION GAUGE MODE)  
During NORM dives, operation will enter VGM when Deco requires a Stop Depth greater than 70 FT (21 M).  
Operation would then continue in VGM during the remainder of that dive and for 24 hours after surfacing. VGM turns the BUD  
into a digital instrument without any decompression or oxygen related calculations or displays.  
Upon activation of VGM, the full TLBG with the graphics VIO and UP flash for 10 seconds as a warning (Fig. 36).

BUD OPERATING MANUAL  
CARE AND CLEANING  
Protect your BUD from shock, excessive temperatures, exposure to chemicals, and tampering. Protect the lens against scratches  
with a Instrument Lens Protector. Small scratches will naturally disappear underwater.  
• Soak and rinse the BUD in fresh water at the end of each day of diving, and check to ensure that the areas around the Low  
Pressure (Depth) Sensor (Fig. 45a) and button are free of debris or obstructions.  
To dissolve salt crystals, use lukewarm water or a slightly acidic bath (50% white vinegar/50% fresh water). After removal  
from the bath, place the BUD under gently running fresh water and towel dry before storing.  
• Transport your BUD cool, dry, and protected.  
a
Fig. 45 - CASE BACK  
INSPECTIONS AND SERVICE  
Your BUD should be inspected annually by an Authorized Oceanic Dealer who will perform a factory prescribed function check  
and inspection for damage or wear.  
To keep the 2 year limited warranty in effect, this inspection must be completed one year after purchase (+/- 30 days).  
Oceanic recommends that you continue to have an inspection performed every year to ensure it is working properly.  
The costs of annual inspections, or inspections relating to water tight integrity, are not covered under the terms of the 2 year  
limited warranty.  
To Obtain Service:  
Take your BUD to your local Authorized Oceanic Dealer.  
If required to return your BUD to the Oceanic USA factory:  
• Obtain an RA (Return Authorization) number by contacting Oceanic USA at 510/562-0500 or send an e-mail to service@  
oceanicusa.com.  
• Record all dive data in the Log. All data will be erased during factory service.  
• Package it using a protective cushioning material.  
• Include a legible note stating the specific reason for return, your name, address, daytime phone number, serial number(s),  
and a copy of your original sales receipt and Warranty Registration.  
• Send freight prepaid and insured using a traceable method.  
• Non-warranty service must be prepaid. COD is not accepted.  
• Additional information is available on the Oceanic web site OceanicWorldwide.com or on the local Oceanic web site that  
serves your global region.  
The procedures that follow must be closely adhered to. Damage due to  
improper battery replacement is not covered by the BUD's warranty.  
When the battery is removed, settings and calculations for repetitive dives are retained in the unit's memory while a  
new battery is installed.  
BATTERY REPLACEMENT  
The Battery Compartment should only be opened in a dry and clean environment with extreme care taken to prevent the entrance  
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 Battery  
in an air conditioned environment then take it outside during a hot sunny day).  
Fig. 46A - 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 BUD,  
DO NOT attempt to use it for diving until it receives proper service by an authorized Oceanic facility.  
Battery Removal  
• Locate the Battery Compartment on the back of the unit.  
• Rotate the Battery Cover clockwise 10 degrees using the special Battery Cover Tool (Fig. 46A), or by pushing the lower  
portion to the left while pushing the upper portion to the right using your thumbs (Fig. 46B).  
• Lift the Cover with O-ring up and away from the Housing.  
• Using care not to damage the Contact (Fig. 47a), slide the Battery up and out of the left side of the Compartment.  
• Discard the Battery according to local regulations governing disposal of Lithium batteries.  
Fig. 46B - COVER  
REMOVAL (using thumbs)  
CAUTION: DO NOT allow a metal object to short circuit the top of the Battery, which is positive (+), to the nega-  
tive ( - ) contact of the Battery Compartment.  
a
Inspection  
• Closely check all of the sealing surfaces for any signs of damage that might impair proper sealing.  
• Inspect the Buttons, Lens, and Housing to ensure they are not cracked or damaged.  
• Remove the Battery Cover O-ring and inspect it for any signs of deterioration or deformity. DO NOT use tools to remove the  
O-ring.  
To ensure proper sealing, O-ring replacement is highly recommended each time the Battery is replaced.  
• Closely examine the threads of the Battery Cover and Housing for any signs of damage that might prevent proper threading.  
• Closely examine the inside of the Battery Compartment for any signs of corrosion indicating entrance of moisture into the  
unit.  
Fig. 47 - BATTERY  
REMOVAL  
• If it is necessary to clean the Battery Compartment, flush it thoroughly with a solution of 50% white vinegar and 50% fresh  
water. Rinse with fresh water, and allow to dry overnight or blow dry with a hair dryer set at no heat.

BUD OPERATING MANUAL  
WARNING: If damage, moisture, or corrosion is found, return your BUD to an Authorized Oceanic Dealer, and  
DO NOT attempt to use it until it has received factory prescribed service.  
Battery Installation  
• Slide a new 3 volt type CR2430 Lithium Battery, negative side down into the Battery Compartment. Slide it in from the left  
side (Fig. 48) and ensure that it slides under the contact clip on the lower/right rim of the cavity.  
• Lightly lubricate the new Cover O-ring* with silicone grease and place it on the inner rim of the Battery Cover. Ensure that it  
is evenly seated (Fig. 49).  
Fig. 48 - BATTERY INSTALL  
*The O-ring must be a genuine Oceanic part that can be purchased from an Authorized Oceanic Dealer. Use of any  
other O-ring will void the warranty.  
• Carefully place the Battery Cover (with O-ring) into position on the rim of the Battery Compartment, then press it evenly and  
completely down into place.  
• Maintain the Battery Cover securely in place and turn it counter clockwise 10 degrees using the special Battery Cover tool  
(Fig. 50A), or by pushing the lower portion to the right while pushing the upper portion to the left (Fig. 50B).  
Fig. 49 - COVER O-RING  
Testing  
• Observe the LCD display to ensure it is consistently clear and sharp in contrast throughout the screen.  
• Set the Date and Time.  
• Verify all Set Points prior to diving.  
If any portions of the display are missing or appear dim, or if a Low Battery Condition is indicated, return  
your BUD 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 BUD automatically adjusts to these conditions providing  
corrected Depth, and reduced No Deco and O2 Times at intervals of 1,000 feet (305 meters).  
> 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 BUD will not function as a Dive Computer above 14,000 feet (4,270 meters).
