2.4. WIRELESS CYLINDER

PRESSURE TRANSMISSION

The Vytec can be used together with an

optional wireless cylinder pressure transmit-

ter that can easily be attached to the high-

pressure port of the regulator (Fig. 2.5). By

using the transmitter the diver can benefit

from cylinder pressure and remaining air time

data.
In order to use the transmitter the wireless

integration needs to be enabled in the Vytec’s

settings. To enable or disable the wireless

integration refer to chapter 4.3.3.3 Cylinder

pressure settings.

2.4.1. Installing the Transmitter

Upon purchasing the Vytec, Suunto strongly

recommends you have your dealer attach the

transmitter to the first stage of your regulator.
If you decide to attach it yourself, follow the

steps outlined below:
Remove the high pressure (HP) port plug on

the first stage of your regulator using an

appropriate tool.
Thread the high pressure transmitter of the

Vytec into the HP port of your regulator with

your fingers. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! Maxi-

mum torque 6 Nm (4.4 ftlbs or 53 inlbs). Seal-

ing is based on a static o-ring, not force!
Attach the regulator to the scuba cylinder.

Slowly open the valve. Check for leaks by

submerging the regulator first stage in water.

If leaks are detected, check the condition of

the o-ring and sealing surfaces.
