Sirius Dive Computer

 The Sirius is a diving computer that resembles a watch, blending elegance and technology effectively.

The Sirius Dive Computer combines technology and elegance. Mares designed the new Sirius watch-style dive computer with a high-resolution MIP color screen that makes it easy to see the watch's face in any lighting. With its stylish and sleek design, this watch face allows you to seamlessly dive into your daily life! The Sirius packs features that are top-of-the-range technology both for the recreational and Extended Range diver. The recreational diver can see dive data in a simple, intuitive way, with the possibility of integrating tank data using the optional tank module. The Extended Range diver can insert up to five nitrox and trimix mixes.

Watch Mode
There are plenty of functions in the Mares Sirius Dive Computer. The functions are grouped into two categories, each corresponding to a specific mode of operation. When you're on the surface the computer is in Watch Mode. In this Watch Mode, you can use it as a normal watch. You can also change settings, review your logbook, use the dive planner, see remaining desaturation after a dive, download to a smartphone, and much more! The Sirius can communicate via low-power Bluetooth and the apps MARES or MySSI directly to a smartphone to transfer logbook information or to perform firmware upgrades. To initiate a Bluetooth connection, select BLUETOOTH from the main menu, then start the Mares or MySSI app on your smartphone and follow the instructions.

Dive Mode
Sirius monitors depth, time, and temperature and performs all decompression calculations; dive mode itself can be broken down into 4 sub-categories: pre-dive, dive, surfacing, and post-dive.

• Pre-Dive
  • During the pre-dive mode, the Sirius is on the surface but actively monitoring ambient pressure, so that it can begin to calculate a dive the instant it is submerged below 1.2m/4ft.
• Dive
  • During Dive-Mode divers have access to the compass, setting a bearing, stopwatch, and GAS SWITCH TABLE (for multigas dives).
• Surfacing
  • During the Surfacing,  the Sirius is on the surface at the end of a dive; dive time calculation is halted but if the diver submerges within three minutes the dive is resumed including the time spent on the surface.
• Post-Dive
  • after the three minutes of surfacing mode, Sirius closes the logbook and reverts to a display showing desaturation time, no-fly time, and surface interval; this lasts until the desaturation and the no-fly time both have been reduced to zero.

Safety Features

During a dive, divers rely on their dive computer to provide critical information such as depth, dive time, decompression status, and no-decompression limits. The readability of the display ensures that divers can easily access and understand this crucial data, allowing them to monitor their dive parameters accurately and make informed decisions for a safe ascent and decompression. Diving can be mentally demanding, and divers may encounter challenging situations. A dive computer with a clear and easy-to-read display reduces stress and cognitive load by providing critical information in a straightforward, accessible manner, even during more challenging dive scenarios. 

Rechargeable Battery

The Sirius uses a rechargeable battery. A full charge allows you up to 30 hours of diving*/ 500 recharge cycles  (30 hours without a transmitter), depending on the usage of the backlight and the temperature of the water. If during a dive the battery level drops to 15%, Sirius will display a low battery warning. When this appears, you should start your final ascent to the surface.
