Uwatec Smart Tec connection to transmitter

[simonc]

Hi all,

My smart tec is losing contact with the transmitter and alarming all the time (annoying!!). When I raise my hand up close to the transmitter it reconnects briefly. My ikelite strobe really plays havoc with the connection and more recently on night dives my light too.

I've changed the transmitter battery several times (and the smart tec's too back at the factory - it now has 97% battery) and just recently put another fresh battery in the transmitter. I'm off diving this weekend and will see how it goes.

I've tried raising and lowering the tank position, but that's has no affect. I'm using an aqualung Legend 1st stage if that matters?

I was considering putting the smart tec into "all-silent" mode via Smarttrak, but the selection option is grayed-out and I can't select it. Can this be over-ridden to allow me to change the setting?

Any help is very greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Simon

You should send the transmitter and computer back to Uwatec for service.

I'm sure they'll either find the problem and fix it or just swap it out. I've never had anything less than stellar service from them.
