INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Oceanic and thank you for choosing the Veo 200 or Veo 250 !
It is extremely important that you read this Operating Manual in sequence and understand
it completely before attempting to use the Veo 200/250. It is equally important that you
read the Oceanic Dive Computer Safety and Reference Manual (Doc. No. 12-2262)
provided with your Veo 200/250. It contains information that you must become familiar
with prior to diving with your Veo 200/250.
Remember that technology is no substitute for common sense, and a dive computer only
provides the person using it with data, not the knowledge to use it.
The Veo 200 and 250 are configured with the same features and functions. The differ-
ence between them is the location of the 2 Control Buttons (page 8). The Veo 200 is
designed for mounting in a Console Boot and has both Buttons on the front. The Veo 250
is designed to wear on the wrist and has 1 button on the front and 1 on the right side.
INTERACTIVE CONTROL CONSOLE
The Control Buttons, referred to as the Interactive Control Console allow you to select
display options and access specific information when you want to see it. They are also
used to enter settings, activate the Backlight, and acknowledge the Audible Alarm.
The Left button of the Veo 200 and Front button of the Veo 250 are referred to as the
Advance button. The Right button of the Veo 200 and Side button of the Veo 250 are
referred to as the Select button. The terms used in this manual are Left/Front (Advance)
and Right/Side (Select) referring to the Veo 200/250.
