Description:
This revolutionary diver communication buoy works with the Garmin dive ecosystem, allowing crew members on the surface to monitor and track their dive groups, as well as exchange pre-determined messages with divers carrying a compatible dive computer1 linked to a Descent™ T2 transceiver.
Divers connected in the network can also view their distance and direction from the buoy to get a reference of the path back to base2.
Features:
REMOTE MONITORING OF DIVERS.
The surface team can monitor divers equipped with compatible dive computers linked to Descent T2 transceivers to track tank pressures, diver depths and more. Automatic alerts let the surface team know if there are any problems with tanks or depth levels2.
TWO-WAY MESSAGING
The Garmin Dive smart device app allows the team at the surface to exchange pre-determined messages through networked Descent™ dive computers, so they can inform divers of any mishaps. The Descent S1 buoy also extends the reach of diver-to-diver messaging1.
DIVER LOCATION TRACKING
The surface team can track the approximate depth of each diver in the SubWave sonar network up to 100 meters from the Descent S12 Buoy.
FIND MY BUOY
Divers in the network can query the distance and direction to the Descent™ S1 Buoy, giving them a clear reference of the path back to base and a better understanding of the environment.
POST-DIVE CHECK-UP
Once on the surface, divers in the network can review their underwater heat maps on the Garmin Dive smartphone app to see approximately where they were exploring
RUGGED DESIGN
The rugged, compact 900-gram buoy is impact resistant and boasts a 10-meter IPX8 water resistance rating.
EXTENDED BATTERY LIFE
The rechargeable lithium battery offers up to 15 hours of battery life, allowing you to dive longer without needing to recharge.
SECURE CONNECTIVITY
Wi-Fi® technology connects the buoy wirelessly to the Garmin Dive smart device app within a radius of up to 60 meters.
COMPATIBILITY WITH MULTIPLE GNSS SYSTEMS
On the surface, multiple satellite systems (GPS and GLONASS) aid signal reception in challenging environments.
