Description
The Shearwater Swift Transmitter is an advanced air integration transmitter for measuring scuba tank gas
pressure and transmitting this information to a compatible dive computer. Please take some
time to read this manual to get the best performance from your new transmitter.

AIR INTEGRATION (AI)
The Swift connects to Shearwater dive computers to provide air integration capability.
AI stands for Air Integration. This refers to a system that uses wireless transmitters to measure
the gas pressure in a scuba tank and transmit this information to the dive computer for display
and logging.
Data is transmitted using low frequency (38kHz) radio communications. A receiver
in the dive computer accepts this data and formats it for display. The communication is from
the shearwater swift transmitter to the computer without requiring a response. Two (or more) dive computers
may be programmed to receive the same transmitter(s).
Although the feature is named “Air” Integration, other gas mixtures can be used with the
system as well. When using gas mixtures with oxygen content above 22%, be sure to have
proper training on such mixtures, and follow proper cleaning and material compatibility
guidelines. Swift transmitters are built with O2 compatible materials.
