FAQ
Still have questions? We have the answers.
Shearwater は、すべての製品に世界共通の 2 年間保証を提供しています。保証は最初の購入者ではなく、製品自体に付随します。つまり、正規販売代理店ネットワークから購入した場合でも、中古で購入した場合でも、保証は有効です。Shearwater は、その独自の裁量により、保証対象の欠陥製品を修理または交換します。不正な修理、偶発的な損傷、または過失は保証の対象外です。保証には、充電器やストラップなどの付属アクセサリーも含まれます。
保証のためにコンピュータを登録する必要がありますか?
いいえ。保証はコンピュータ固有のシリアル番号にリンクされています。
コンピュータの修理が必要な場合は、どこに連絡すればよいですか?
弊社のサポートチーム(info@shearwater.com)に直接ご連絡いただくか、こちらの RMA(返品許可)フォームにご記入ください:https://www.shearwater.com/rma-request-form/
または、ページ下部の連絡先情報を使用して、最寄りの認定サービスセンターに直接ご連絡いただくこともできます。関連するサービスセンターから RMA を取得せずに製品を返品しないでください。
保証対象外の修理費用はいくらですか?
保証対象外の修理のために持ち込まれたコンピュータは、故障を特定するためにコンポーネントを適切にテストするために分解する必要があります。故障が特定されると、必要な修理の見積もりを正確に計算できます。潜在的に機能しないコンピュータの使用を防ぐため、修理を辞退し、コンピュータの返却を希望する場合、コンピュータは分解された状態で返却されることにご注意ください。
修理にはどのくらい時間がかかりますか?
Shearwater およびその認定サービスセンターは、保証期間内の修理および認定された保証期間外の修理を、受領後 5 営業日以内に完了することを目指しています。祝日、部品の遅延、および/またはコンピュータを別の場所で修理する必要がある場合、修理時間が遅れることがあります。より正確な時間枠については、関連するサービスセンターにお問い合わせください。
Shearwater のサービス配送ポリシーは何ですか?
修理のためにコンピュータを送付する費用はお客様の負担となります。念のため、修理センターから RMA を取得するまで、コンピュータを修理センターに送付しないでください。保証期間内の修理の場合、コンピュータは無料で返送されます。保証期間外の修理の場合、返送費用は修理見積もりに含まれています。保証期間外の修理を辞退する場合は、サービスセンターに廃棄を依頼するか、お客様の費用で返送してもらうことができます。
コンピューターはどのくらいの頻度で整備する必要がありますか?
Shearwater は、認定サービスセンターで 2 年ごとにダイブコンピューターの一般的な整備を行うことを推奨しています。
保証は Teric/Peregrine の充電式バッテリーを対象としていますか?
バッテリーの最高の性能を確保するために、コンピュータのマニュアルにある充電/保管の指示に従うことが重要です。2 年間の保証期間内にバッテリーが性能仕様を満たしていない場合は、無料で修理されます。高い環境温度やバッテリーを繰り返し完全に放電させるなど、定格仕様の極端な状態で動作させると、バッテリーの寿命にばらつきが生じることがあります。
バッテリーの液漏れ
ユーザーが交換可能なバッテリーを使用するダイブコンピューターのバッテリー液漏れによる損傷は、保証の対象外です。Shearwater は、バッテリー液漏れの可能性を減らすために、Energizer Ultimate Lithium 1.5v バッテリーなどのリチウム電池の使用を推奨しています。単三電池(特にアルカリ電池)を長期間デバイスに入れたままにしておくと、バッテリー液漏れによる損傷の可能性が大幅に高まります。
DEMO & PRO コンピューター
Demo & Pro モデルのコンピューターの保証は、最初の購入者にのみ適用されることにご注意ください。デモモデルの場合、これはコンピューターを購入した認定デモセンターを意味します。Pro モデルの場合、これは購入時に確認された元のインストラクター/ダイブプロフェッショナルにまで及びます。これらのモデルは再販を目的としていないため、この保証は絶対に譲渡できません。Demo および Pro モデルの修理/サービスは可能ですが、最初の所有者でない場合は、サービスに費用がかかります。これらのガイドラインは、標準の Shearwater 製品にのみ適用され、軍事、商業、公安を含む政府製品は、独自の保証条件の対象となる場合があります。詳細については、担当者にお問い合わせください。

We are sorry that you are having a problem with your dive computer that can't be resolved with our FAQ’s. If your dive computer needs some kind of repair, simply email us at info@shearwater.com to initiate the process.
Please include your name, address and phone number, description of your problem, your unit model, S/N and Firmware Version. We’ll get you an RMA number and instructions on how to send your computer in for repair. Please do not return your computer to us or any of our service centers without an RMA number.
To find your S/N and firmware, turn on your computer (unless it won’t turn on) and from the main screen press the right side button 8-10 times until you see the S/N displayed (lower left) and Firmware (lower right) of the screen.
The NERD is a full featured technical decompression dive computer. If you are familiar with the Shearwater Petrel or Predator, then you will be familiar with the NERD.
The NERD offers the same functionality and mode options as the Petrel or Perdix but does not run the same software version of firmware. You can read the latest firmware updates to the NERD by clicking here. The NERD has a full-colour Mini-LCD display with the same resolution as the Petrel.
With the NERD, for the entire dive, you will see depth, time, decompression stops, and PPO2 readings all with a quick glance. Everything you need to know stays within your line of sight.
The NERD image appears 12 feet (4m) away. If your vision is corrected for 12 feet away, then you can read the NERD.
Although the NERD is located very close to your eye, you do not need near-vision correction. That is, bifocals or reading glasses are not needed nor wanted. The NERD’s optics make the screen appear further away than it actually is.
So the answer is maybe. You need to be able to see 12 feet away. Since you should be diving with correction at this range, most divers will be able to use the NERD. Note that a mask with bifocal near vision correction may cause problems with the NERD.
The NERD display appears about the same as a 32” TV would from 12’ away (a 81cm TV from 3.7m for the metrically inclined).
If you have used a Petrel or Predator (both 2.4” displays), the NERD screen appears the same size as if they were held 1 foot (0.3m) away from your eye. Most divers have no problem reading a Petrel or Predator from several feet away, so the NERD is very easy to read.
The NERD is typically placed to one side, either in the lower or upper range of vision, and so only partially blocks one eye.
Your brain does an amazing job of combining the information from your eyes and filling in missing information. As such, when you choose to look at the NERD display you will see it, but it will not seem to block much of your vision when you look away. It almost seems as if you can see through it.
If you only have vision in one eye, then unfortunately the NERD will probably block too much of your vision to be usable.
The NERD has two piezo-electric buttons located on the sides of the eyepiece. Pressing these buttons allows editing settings, changing gases, etc.
The button type and user interface are the same as on the Petrel and Predator dive computers.
There are two issues for compatibility: Mounting and PPO2 monitoring.
Mounting:
Compatible with all rebreathers.
The universal nylon strap mount makes the NERD compatible with every rebreather we have tried.
If you have any questions regarding mounting to a specific rebreather model, contact us and we’ll try to help. Note that other constraints (BOV access, other HUDs, etc.) should be considered when choosing a mounting position for the NERD.
If you don’t like our mounting strap, it detaches leaving a simple dovetail mount for customized solutions.
PPO2 Monitoring:
The NERD has two modes of operation for rebreather divers.
- Internal PPO2 – constant setpoint
In this mode the NERD assumes the rebreather is maintaining setpoint at a user selectable level (e.g. 0.7 or 1.3 ata).
All rebreathers that run fixed setpoints (most closed circuit models) are compatible with this mode.
- External PPO2 monitoring
This is where the NERD really shines. Having PPO2 values from 3 oxygen cells displayed in your vision for the entire dive is a great safety advancement. Always know your PPO2.
The NERD is sold with the standard 7-pin Fischer connector (103 size) for connection to oxygen cells. Any rebreather (closed or semi-closed circuit) that uses compatible O2 cells and can use a cable with Fischer connector is compatible with this mode of operation.
The NERD is mounted on an articulating arm that can adjust height, angle, and distance to account for physical differences between different divers.
The arm is easy to adjust without tools, but holds its position once set. During dive entries in high surf, the NERD may get knocked around a little, but is easy to reposition once underwater and things have calmed down.
Yes, the NERD can be used for Open Circuit diving. It has the same OC Trimix decompression capabilities as the Shearwater Petrel.
However, Shearwater Research does not currently provide a standard mount for Open Circuit diving.
The challenge for non-rebreather diving is where to mount the NERD. The rebreather mount can be removed, leaving a simple dovetail mount that can be adapted to other mounting methods.
No, there is not currently an Air Integrated (AI) model.

To purchase the VPM-B upgrade you can contact any dealer from our dealer network, provide them with your serial number, and request to purchase the unlock code.
We recommend you remove alkaline batteries from your unit if you intend to store it for an extended period. Alkaline batteries have a tendency to leak when they have fully discharged.
The name of the o-ring used is AS568-112. The size of this o-ring is 1/2" ID by 3/32" width. This is the same o-ring used in the majority of DIN regulators (not Apeks however).
You can use replacement o-rings made of either nitrile, EPDM, silicone or viton. Be sure to use a lubricant compatible with the o-ring material selected. We recommend a Shore 70A durometer, however both harder and softer will work.
To improve the sealing performance and O-ring life span, the battery compartment O-ring gland design has been changed from a crushed gland to a radial gland. Identification of the new radial cap can be made by reading this article. All units being shipped from our factory currently have a radial battery cap.
