Cochran NAVY EOD User Manual
The NavyEOD Dive unit is quite simple to use and operate. To get the safest and most effective use of this instrument, it is important that the user fully understand the product. Please read and understand this entire manual and know the principles and practices of safe diving before using this device.
The Contacts are used to let the user command the unit to do a number of functions, communicate with a PC for extracting information or configuring the unit, and determining water conductivity. When Contacts 1 & 2 are shorted, the NAVY EOD Dive Computer can detect the difference between wet fingers, metal objects, fresh water, salt water, and a PC interface probe.
Although the NAVY EOD Dive Computer automatically turns on when it is submerged in water, it is STRONGLY recommended that the unit be manually powered up by wetting two fingers and simultaneously touching Contacts 1 and 2 for two seconds. This allows the diver to ensure that the unit is operating correctly and has adequate battery capacity prior to entry. Once activated, the unit will remain on for 60 minutes. If a dive is not initiated within this 60 minutes, the NAVY EOD Dive Computer automatically shuts off. Notice that when Contacts 1 & 2 are first bridged, a short beep is issued which indicates that the unit is recognizing the touch. Every time Contacts 1 & 2 are bridged with wet fingers, the unit will stay on for one full hour.
The NAVY EOD Dive Computer will not turn on if the altitude is higher than 16,000 feet, the batteries are less than 2.0 volts, or a fault is detected during the selftest.

"COMMENTS FROM A USER"
"I was approached from my Pacific Navy counterpart in regards to this useful product. I am currently in charge of the Combat Engineer Diver Training/OPs and equip purchases for the Army divers. I have used this product (Ruslyn Cordwheel) on the Combat Engineer Dive Course and on our recent annual Army Dive Exercise in Pacific Canada which dealt with underwater demolitions. This reel meets the requirements for our use of wrapping det cord and or any various rope like lines without any problems. This is another great item to add in our current Army Diver toolbox."
