1. Introduction to Galileo1. INTRODUCTION TO GALILEOGalileo is diving technology made easy. It is an intuitive tool which monitors all aspects of thedive to provide you with accurate information relative to your individual experience. Galileooffers an array of features to enhance your diving pleasure.• Listen to your body with built-in heart rate monitor technology for ultimate safetyand peace of mind (patent pending). Enjoy the heart rate monitor with workloadmeasurement integrated in the algorithm, brought to you thanks to a unique partnershipbetween Polar and UWATEC. Heart rate can be called up on the display at any pointof the dive. Dive profi le and heart rate curve are stored in Galileo’s memory for lateranalysis. After the dive, heart data can be downloaded to a personal computer throughSmartTRAK, the dedicated UWATEC software, then analyzed.• Personalize your Galileo (patent pending): customize the display according to yourpreferences, choose your language for warnings and menus.• Enjoy UWATEC long lasting technology: Galileo features a reprogrammable chip soyour computer can be updated; hoseless tank information with remaining bottom timecalculation to help you manage your gas supply; a tilt-compensated digital compass foraccurate reading in any situation.Your Galileo User Manual is divided into fi ve main chapters.Chapter 1: Introduction to Galileo. This chapter provides an overview of the Galileocomputer and describes its operating modes and functions when on thesurface.Chapter 2: Menus, settings and functions. This chapter describes every aspect ofthe computer as it relates to its use, functions and features. It describes allparameters you can adjust directly on the dive computer.Chapter 3: Diving with Galileo. This chapter takes you underwater with your newcomputer. It’s about everything Galileo can and will do to enhance your safetyand fun underwater.Chapter 4: Galileo and SmartTRAK (PC interface). This chapter is about personalizationand customization. It describes how to change settings, to download andmanage your logbook, to upload pictures and to upgrade or update thefi rmware on your new computer.Chapter 5: Taking care of Galileo. This chapter illustrates how to take care of your newdive computer.It is time to dive into the details now. We hope you will enjoy getting to know your newcomputer and we wish you many happy dives with Galileo.6
1. Introduction to Galileo1.1 GlossaryAVGBPMCNS O 2DESATAverage depth, calculated from the beginning of the dive or, in case ofgauge mode, from the time of reset.Beats per minute, refers to the heart rate.Central Nervous System oxygen toxicity.Desaturation time. The time needed for the body to completely eliminateany nitrogen taken up during diving.Dive time The whole time spent below a depth of 0.8m/3ft.Gas integration The feature in Galileo to include tank pressure information in its calculationsand to display it on the computer screen.Gas switching The act of changing from one breathing gas to another.IrDAInfrared Data Association, refers to the communication protocol betweendive computer and PC.Max depth Maximum depth attained during the dive.MBMicrobubble. Microbubbles are tiny bubbles that can build up in a diver’sbody during and after a dive.MB level One of the six steps, or levels, in UWATEC’s customizable algorithm.MODMaximum Operating Depth. This is the depth at which the partial pressureof oxygen (ppO 2) reaches the maximum allowed level (ppO 2max). Divingdeeper than the MOD will expose the diver to unsafe ppO 2 levels.Multi gas Refers to a dive in which more than one breathing gas is used (air and/orNitrox).Nitrox A breathing mix made of oxygen and nitrogen, with the oxygenconcentration being 22% or higher. In this manual, air is considered as aparticular type of Nitrox.NO FLY Minimum amount of time the diver should wait before taking a plane.No-stop time This is the time that you can stay at the current depth and still make a directascent to the surface without having to perform decompression stops.O 2Oxygen.O 2%Oxygen concentration used by the computer in all calculations.Pairing The act of establishing a coded RF communication between Galileo anda high pressure transmitter.PMGPredictive Multi Gas, refers to the algorithm capable of including up tothree different Nitrox mixes in its decompression calculations.ppO 2Partial pressure of oxygen. This is the pressure of the oxygen in thebreathing mix. It is a function of depth and oxygen concentration. A ppO 2higher than 1.6bar is considered dangerous.ppO 2max The maximum allowed value for ppO 2. Together with the oxygenconcentration it defi nes the MOD.PressThe act of pressing and releasing one of the buttons.Press and hold The act of pressing and holding one of the buttons for 1 second beforereleasing it.English7
