Oceanic Atom 2 - HOW TO LINK? - HELP!

[dbatts2002]

I had all of my dive gear serviced and they replaced the batteries in my Oceanic Atom 2 DC and the transmitter too. Now the computer and transmitter aren't linked up and I can't find anywhere in the manual how to restore the connection! When I have it on a full tank, it still shows 0 psi and when I hold the top left button (I think), it says TMT1 not available. Help!

Pages 70 and 71 give instructions on how to input the the transmitters serial number(link code) into the wrist computer. Check to see if the link code is still in the watch as it sounds like it isn't.

Thanks for the advice. I actually found these pages last night in the book and tried it this morning on a full tank. Serial number in the DC matched serial number on the transmitter already. No matter where I positioned the DC vs the transmitter, it wouldn't sync up. LDS replaced both batteries, so I'm confused. Any other ideas?

Thanks

I had this happen once. I simply removed the battery from the transmitter and replaced it. Worked like a camp after that, never another problem from it.

Check the transmitter to see if it actually has a battery in it.

Might have gotten a dud battery it has happened to me (and I'm the service tech) these things have a shelf life and need to be rotated. Mine was out of an old save a dive kit but I have gotten bad batteries from my supplier.

Just wondering how you went with this problem.
