Shearwater PEREGRINE TX Dive Computer

Shearwater PEREGRINE TX Dive Computer

How the Features Help

• Reading the display: Colour presentation separates key data such as depth, dive time and gas information. Set brightness and the available screen layout before entering the water so the information you use is easy to find.
• Navigation: A digital compass brings heading information to the same instrument as your dive data. Calibrate it as instructed and practise the available bearing and reciprocal-heading functions on the surface.
• Cylinder-pressure information: With the specified compatible transmitter, the computer shows cylinder-pressure data at your wrist. Pair each transmitter to its correct gas and check the surface reading; gas-time estimates support your existing gas plan.
• Keeping your dive record: The supported connection transfers dive logs for post-dive review and, where supported, software updates. Optional external interfaces remain separate accessories unless included in this package.
• Power between dive days: A rechargeable battery avoids routine disposable-cell changes. Use the specified charging accessory and allow the instrument and electrical connections to dry before charging.

Who is this computer for, and when is an upgrade useful?

Compared with the original Peregrine, the Peregrine TX adds wireless air-integration support and a digital compass while retaining the larger colour-screen format. The upgrade benefits divers who want pressure information and navigation on their computer. A compatible transmitter is needed for pressure monitoring; compare the TX and Swift package if you want both together. It is an Air/Nitrox computer rather than a Trimix or rebreather model.

Setting up this computer

Compare the modes, gas capability, display and mounting arrangement with the diving you are trained to do. Check exactly what this listing includes, particularly transmitters, interfaces and charging accessories. Configure the computer using its own manual and confirm gases, alerts, units and battery status before diving. A depth rating describes an instrument limit and does not establish a suitable dive depth.

Gear Care and Maintenance

After every dive, rinse gently in fresh water to remove salt, chlorine and grit. Let residue soften by soaking only as the model’s manual permits, and operate buttons during rinsing only where instructed. Do not direct a high-pressure hose or compressed air at sensor openings, and never probe them with a tool.

Follow the care section of the exact Shearwater model manual for any cleaner; fresh water is the baseline cleaning method. Keep pressure-sensor openings clear by gentle rinsing, without scraping or high-pressure jets. Air dry fully in the shade before storage or charging.

Inspect the strap, attachment points, display and seals before use. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heaters and hot cars, with the screen protected from loose equipment. Follow the manufacturer’s battery-storage and servicing instructions.

Charge only with the compatible charger or adapter and the specified power source. Dry electrical contacts before connecting and follow the manual’s charging temperature and long-term battery-storage instructions. Rechargeable internal batteries are serviced only as the manufacturer permits.
