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 (U.S. Patent no. 5,845,235) is
owned by Suunto Oy (Finland).
DECOMPRESSION MODEL
The programs within the VEO 1.0 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 VEO 1.0 dive computer
model is based upon the latest research and experiments in decompression theory. Still, using the VEO 1.0,
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
The Control Button allows you to select display options and ac-
cess specific information when you want to see it.
BAR GRAPHS
TLBG (Tissue Loading Bar Graph)
The TLBG (Fig. 1a) represents tissue loading of nitrogen, show-
ing 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 decompres-
sion time is allowed for multilevel diving.
The TLBG monitors 12 different nitrogen compartments simultane-
ously 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.

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).
