4.1. Install the Transmitter
Before using the AI system, you will need to install one or
more transmitters on a scuba tank rst stage regulator.
The transmitter must be installed on a rst stage port labeled
“HP” (high pressure). Use a rst stage regulator with at least
two HP ports, so that a backup analog submersible pressure
gauge (SPG (FIGURE 4)) can be used�
Position the transmitter such that it is on the same side of your
body as you wear your Perdix AI handset (FIGURE 5)� Range is
limited to approximately 3 ft (1 m)�
A high-pressure hose may be used to relocate the transmitter
for better reception or convenience� Use hoses rated for a
working pressure of 4500 PSI (300 Bar) or higher�
