Questions about this item:
JOSE ANGEL L DOES IT COMPUTER IS LIBERAL O CONSERVATIVE?
WICH COMPUTER CAN U RECOMEND ME AS A LIBERAL COMPUTER?
ROY B Galileo SOL is in fact conservative in all respects. Galileo is a REAL computer with menus from which you can select integers and/or modify certain numerical values. I purchased the SOL for the following reasons: 1) the screen is large, 2) I like UWATEC computers (I presently have three UWATEC computers.), and 3) the Galileo SOL is conservative. Galileo will lock you out if you ignore mandatory instructions (SOS). The computer cannot be reset until 24 hours has passed; however, the computer will return to the gauge mode and can be used as such. The ascent rate appears to be set at 30 feet per minute. This rate gives me trouble simply because I learned a rate of 60 feet per minute more than 50 years ago.
Galileo is the best you can buy at present. Don?t put absolute faith in a pseudo-physiological algorithm. Don?t yo-yo dive, and use common sense. My advice is to go back to the dive tables and remember this: 60 feet for 60 minutes and 130 feet for 10 minutes, and stay within these limits. Why? Computers fail?trust your computer VERY conservatively.
I have been diving for more years than I care to remember and I am still diving today at age 75. I went from skin diving to hard-hat in the U.S. Navy to combat swimming to commercial diving. I will say again?dive conservatively and you?ll be able to stay away from recompression chambers.

TOM R This computer has a total of 5 different levels of conservatism beyond the standard algorithm. So there are 6 total levels. There are also other factors one can adjust within these levels to lean toward more conservatism or less. I think this computer has more user control then most of the other computers on the market.
Of course, there is a limit to how liberal one could go as setting the computer to a level that might cause injury would be not allowed.
CHARLES W The computer can be set to 5 different levels of dive profile. ie: micro bubble formation.the highest level is quite conservative while the lowest level is much more liberal and easy to dive with.
MYLES B The sol is a great computer but it is very conservative, almost too conservative, my old computer was the gecko now called the zoop is much more liberal.
DEAN H amigo, ?que tal? no hablo espanol. pero hablo engles. ?esta bein? the SOL is adjustable. you can be conservative or not depending upon you wont.
JOSE L I fell is liberal and You can chosse conservative or liberal , very easy to program .....Very happy with my Uwatec Sol
JOYCE W We bought ours in 2008 and there was no class for instruction, but we studied the manual and learned to use it. Love it! My husband and I dive together so we can check each others tanks, air, etc, from our individual dive computers and keep in close touch. Every one admires our computers! We got a good price from Maui Dive Shop by buying two at a time.
DARYL F Computer is great. Does everything I want it to and more. As far as liberal or conservative not sure what your really asking but it has tones of features you can use or leave alone.
GREG K You can change the algorithm from liberal to conservative on this computer. The MB levels allow you to do this. There are 5 settings of conservatism, L0 is the most liberal and L5 is the most conservative. I personally use L0 and have 100 dives on the computer with no issues. This is personally one of the best and most in-depth computers I have used. You can adjust every little setting and timer so you are protected at multiple levels of safety. I have recommended this computer to friends who have bought it and agree.
FRED A I have a cobra 3 right now,works real good,you can set it for your preference.Have been looking at Galileo but have not bought one yet. Fred
Shopper how many transmitters can i monitor?
BRUCE L You can monitor up to 4 different transmitters. They are designated as T1 which is always your main tank. T2 & TD which are used for diving with more than one gas mixture and the BUDDY designation which allows you to receive tank pressure information from your dive buddy's smart transmitter (if he or she is equiped with one).
I hope this answers your question.
JOHN S From the Galileo Sol's manual:
1.11 Mounting and pairing
of the high pressure
transmitter
Galileo can receive tank pressure information
via patented interference-free communication
from up to 4 UWATEC Smart high pressure
transmitters. Each transmitter needs to be
mounted on a high pressure port of a fi rst
stage regulator.
RAINER O It can monitor up to 4 transmitters: T1, T2, TD and Buddy. T2 & TD are used for diving with more than one gas mixture.
THOMAS S Per the SCUBA Pro UWATEC manual for the Galileo on page 14 you can have 2 transmitters, yours and a buddys (stage bottle). They show as T1 and Buddy on the display. Your buddy needs to be within 5ft and be using a Smart Transmitter for it to work.
MATT F At the same time you can 4 transmitters at the same time although I don't think all 4 will show up on the same screen at the same time. You can also set a different O2 concentration for each tank seperately. you can download a copy of the users manual for the Sol from the Uwatec website and it will give you more details. I hope that answers your question.
JIM W You have a t1 t2 and a buddy check so 3
D DUANE M Yours plus 1 more.
Shopper most less setting?
JOYCE W I'm not exactly sure what your question is, but I can tell you that both my husband and I have matching UWATEC Galileo wrist dive computers with transmitters and love them. We can check in with each other's status quickly and easily. We did find that when wearing a hood, we couldn't hear the audible signals (until we put ear holes in the hoods). The Galileo provides lots of useful information so if you check in on it the audible signal isn't much of a problem. The most helpful feature for me was the bar graph that helps me ascend within limits. My husband likes the graph that shows our dive profile and also likes being able to monitor his heart rate.
MICHAEL S I would be very happy to answer any question regarding the computer but I do not understand what is being asked?
WILLIAM T I don't understand the question/
Shopper What is the difference between the Sol and the Luna?
LeisurePro S The Sol has wireless air integration, heart rate monitor and 3 gas nitrox capability. The Luna is wireless as well, but the 3 gas capability and heart rate monitor are options that can be purchased separately.
Shopper Does the Sol promote trimix?
LeisurePro S Sorry, no. There have been rumors for years that Scubapro would upgrade the Sol for Trimix, but nothing yet.

Shopper How do I download the information to my pc?
LeisurePro S You will have to purchase the download kit (found here) that contains the USB cable for between your PC and dive computer. Uwatec's dive software is also included.
Shopper Which one is the newest between UWATEC Galileo Sol & Terra and why the price difference?
LeisurePro S The newest update available has been for the Sol, but the main difference between them is that the Sol is set up to be a multi-gas computer while if you want to use the Terra with multiple gases, you will need to purchase a separate update. The Sol also has a few additional features that the Terra including water activation as well as a manual on/off switch (Terra just has water activation)
Shopper Does it accommodate gas switches during a dive?
LeisurePro S Yes, gas switches can either be programmed in before the dive or switched manually during the dive.
Shopper With this system, do you still need a pressure and depth guage connected to your first stage, or is that completely replaced by the wireless system?
LeisurePro S Completely replaced. Your depth will be displayed on your computer screen and the transmitter with relay the tank pressure to your computer screen.
Shopper Are the batteries (computer & transmitter) user replaceable.
LeisurePro S Yes it features a User-replaceable battery for the computer. Transmitter not recommended to be battery replaceable by the user.
Shopper Do you need to buy the infrared interface or is it integrated into the comper
Shopper can i customize my screen - i.e. replace heartrate on classic screen with buddy PSI ?
LeisurePro S No only the three preprogrammed screens
Shopper Can the wireless transmitter from the Oceanic Atom 2.0 be used with it?
Shopper does this support user selectable (conservative to liberal) algorithm as some other uwatec products?
Ayman A what the max depth ?
LeisurePro S Yes you do have this adjustment just as like on other Uwatec products.

Galileo was a great scientist who was ahead of his time in many schools of thought; the people at UWATEC have paid him great homage by naming their cutting edge dive computer, the Galileo Sol, after him. The Galileo Sol dive computer boasts of great technical advances that would make Galileo proud and maybe a bit jealous. It is no secret that each dive is different and taxes thediver slightly differently. The Galileo Sol is the only dive computer with the ability to track the diver's heart rate and calculatehow it will affect the dive namely air consumption and decompression requirements. The Galileo Sol also offers an integrated digital compass that is completely unaffected by tilt. Now you can navigate the depths of the sea without worrying if your headings are accurate. The large display lends an additional hand to keeping you on track, in termsof direction, air consumption, and general dive data. After your dive, you can download the Galileo Sol's dive data directly to your PC. The easy-to-read charts and graphs allow you to accurately review and evaluate your dives. The Galileo Sol stores the 100 most recent hours of dive data for you; no need to wonder what happened when with the Galileo Sol as your dive computer. One pitfall of many dive computers is they become outdated very quickly. With the Galileo Sol, you don't have to worry about that inconvenience; simply use the infrared interface and upload the latest and greatest features and functions from the UWATEC website.
