Machined from a single block of anodised aluminium, there are no screws reducing the failure points. As such this computer has a depth limit of 350m. The bright, 2.4" colour OLED screen is easy to read and an automatic light sensor keeps the screen brightness at the right level.
The battery provides a minimum of 20 hours of usage and can be recharged via a USB. The battery itself is user replaceable, behind a coin slot battery cover. The computer comes ready to mount on bungees, or use the strap provided.
The computer uses intuitive menu systems, and LED status information and warnings. The firmware is easily upgraded and the DR5 can also be used with third party software.
The DR5 can be linked to three oxygen sensors via a 7-pin Fischer connector. It supports Nitrox, Trimix and Heliox, Open Circuit and CCR. The supplied firmware does everything "out of the box", so there is no need to buy additional pins to unlock features. It is all included.
