Intended Use

ECHO is designed for analysis of oxygen (O₂), helium (He), and carbon monoxide (CO) in diving breathing gases composed exclusively of air, pure oxygen, and pure helium.

The analyzer is not a certified measuring instrument. Measured values are informative only and must not be used as sole confirmation of gas composition.

03. Analyzer control

ECHO has a single multifunction button. Switching on/off and control is done by long or short press of this button.

SWITCH ON
Long press of the button (3s)

ENTER MENU
Long press of the button

MENU SCROLLING
Short button press

MENU CONFIRM
Long press of the button

LEAVE MENU
Short press to scroll to Quit and confirm with a long press

SWITCH OFF
Enter menu (long press) Select Switch off (long press)

Gas Analysis

• Analyzer switches automatically to O₂ and He measurement mode after power-on.

• Place the built-in flow limiter on the cylinder valve (air, nitrox).

• For helium mixtures, use an external flow limiter.

• Slowly open the valve.

• Wait 5–10 seconds and always wait for values to stabilize before reading results.

Values are shown on:

• ECHO display

• Mobile device (if connected via Divesoft.App)

Carbon Monoxide (CO) Detection

• Warning threshold: 5 ppm CO.
• CO concentration is displayed in ppm.
  • On ECHO screen only when above warning limit.
  • In the Divesoft.App, indicated by a color bar, tap on the bar to show ppm.
    • Green <1 ppm
    • Yellow 1<<5 ppm
    • Red >5 ppm

• Repeat pairing in the app

Calibration (O₂)

• One-point and two-point calibration: on device or in app

• Three-point calibration: app only (recommended for hypoxic gases)

• Calibrate regularly (recommended at least monthly, ideally before use)

Helium sensor:

• Factory calibrated
• No calibration required
• No menu option available

Battery

• Rechargeable lithium battery

• Charging via USB-C, 5 V / ≥ 0.5 A

• Typical charging time: ~2.5 h

Storage (Long-Term)

• Store in clean, dry environment (10–30 °C)

• Battery charge: ~40–60%

• Avoid solvent vapors and contaminated air

• Allow device to reach room temperature before use

Maintenance

• O₂ galvanic sensor: replace after approx. 12–24 months

• CO sensor: manufacturer lifetime 2 years from unpacking

• Solid-state O₂ (DVO₂) and He sensors: 10+ years / unlimited lifetime

Printing Gas Labels

• Available only in Divesoft.App

• Press Print → PDF saved on phone

• PDF can be sent to a label printer for cylinder marking, see the Divesoft.Blog
