5.4.3 Using the controls
The buttons used on the SEABOB are high-quality, water-
tight piezo-actuated electronic buttons that do not have
mechanical parts and, for this reason, are not subject to
wear (button life: over 20 million operations). These but
-
tons are designed to react to sudden changes in pres
-
sure. For this reason, you only have to tap them lightly.
Regardless of how long or hard you press the buttons,
they always react by emitting a single short pulse. A
pulse may also be emitted if the SEABOB falls hard to the
ground or is struck hard by another object, if the SEABOB
is hit hard or the buttons are inadvertently touched. For
safety reasons, you have to tap the blue button and pull
the Powergrip within a fixed time period to activate the
switch-on function. This is done to prevent the SEABOB
from being switched on inadvertently.
The Powergrip is made of seawater-resistant spring steel.
It can be in a released position, pulled position or other
position in between. The Powergrip is used as a confirm
button and for enabling the motor (on / off). By pulling
the Powergrip against the Controlgrip, you can activate
the motor (the motor runs with a minimum power of
10 %). When you release the Powergrip, the motor stops
immediately.
