      TEXT FOR HEADING-QUIZ QUESTIONS

      The following excerpts are used with the questions in the preceding. If you've already answered all the questions in this quiz, you're done! No need to continue.

      Text for Question 4

      Buoyancy Control Device (BCD)
      
           The buoyancy control device, or BCD, is another piece of equipment for
      all scuba divers.  Its basic role is to regulate your buoyancy, or how much
      you float or sink in the water.  This is important because a great rise or
      fall in depth can result in decompression sickness and can be fatal (if not
      treated).  The BCD contains two kinds of inflation techniques to allow you
      to increase buoyancy: orally, or mechanically through a low pressure hose
      from your air tank.  The BCD also contains an air-dump valve that allows
      your the decrease buoyancy in the event that you begin to ascend
      unintentionally (or too quickly) .
      
           Types of BCDs.There are three basic styles of BCDs.  The
      back-mounted BCD, in Figure B1, is similar to a backpack because it rests
      behind the diver.  Another type shown in Figure B2, the front-mounted BCD,
      is in the form of a life vest and is worn over the head.  The third type of
      BCD shown in Figure B3, the jacket-style, is worn like a vest you put on
      for hunting or fishing.  It contains no sleeves, and contains air pouches
      in front and back of the diver.  Modern day divers tend to use the
      jacket-style BCD the most.  At any rate, make sure you choose a BCD that is
      constructed with a double-bladder system (an air pouch made of urethane
      plastic that holds air, surrounded by a nylon shell that protects the inner
      pouch from harm).
      
      
      Backpacks
      
           Backpacks are intended to hold a tank securely to the divers back.
      They usually contain a frame made of high-impact plastic, as well as, nylon
      webbing creating shoulder straps and a waist strap.  Most backpacks are
      built into a BCD.
      
      
      Back to question 4.

      Text for Question 5

      
      Laser-Jet Printers: Comparisons
      
      There are numerous manufactures of printers, each having many different
      models.  This comparison is limited to three models from different
      companies: the Hewlett-Packard LaserJet 4M Plus, the Digital Equipment
      Corporation DEClaser 3500N, and the Canon LBP-1260.
      
           Price. The manufacturers' suggested price for the printers
      includes Ethernet and 6MB to 7MB of RAM.  The Hewlett-Packard LaserJet 4M
      Plus sells for $1899. The Digital Equipment Corporation DEClaser 3500N
      LBP-1260 was the most expensive, selling for $1999.  The Canon LBP-1260
      sells for $1299 [1:161].  The least expensive printer is the Canon
      LBP-1260.

      . . . was adequate when printing text only, but slow when printing
      graphics.  [1:160-161].  The best performing printer is the LaserJet 4M
      Plus printer by Hewlett-Packard.
      
           Usability. In this area, the LaserJet 4M Plus printer had the
      easiest installation and great software.  The DEClaser 3500N was fairly
      easy to setup, but lacked network-control software.  The LBP-1260 was the
      one of the hardest to install.  There was a problem with the hardware
      interface, and no printer-control software was included [1:160-161].  The
      easiest printer to use is the LaserJet 4M Plus printer by Hewlett-Packard.

      II. LOGGING ONTO THE DATABASE
      
      	This type of network involves such a large geographical area and so
      many different customers that it is not practical to assume that all
      workstations will be of the same type.  The following instructions will
      attempt to cover all of the workstations currently on the network but as
      new equipment is added and developed you may find that your particular
      workstation is not listed.  If this is the case please contact technical
      support at DCE Systems, Inc. for additional documentation and assistance.
      
      
            Using a Televideo Terminal on the Network 
      
      The first step in using any terminal is to turn on the power and with the
      Televideo terminals this is accomplished with a button that pushes in at
      the bottom right corner of the display screen.  When the terminal is
      powered on pay attention to the self-test routine which includes a loud
      beep followed by a message on the screen indicating whether the terminal
      components passed or failed the test.

                         III. COMPONENTS OF SCUBA-DIVING EQUIPMENT
      
      
           As you begin the sport of scuba diving, it is important to know the
      key pieces of equipment you'll be using--their functions, characteristics,
      quality considerations, and costs. Scuba equipment includes such items as
      the mask, fins, snorkel, bouyancy control device, backpack, and several
      others. Each of these will discussed in detail in the following sections.
      
      
      [Spot 1]
      
           [Spot 2] The mask enables you to view the underworld, as well as allows you to
      control constant pressure in your sinus cavities.  Goggles, the other
      alternative lenses, only cover your eyes and do not enclose your nose.
      This failure to equalize pressure can result in what is known as a mask
      squeeze or a negative pressure that could implode your skull and
      surrounding tissues.  Be certain to purchase a mask specifically designed
      for scuba diving, not just poolside sports.
      
           [Spot 3] Masks are composed of a faceplate or lens, a comfortable silicon or
      rubber skirt and a head strap made of similar material.  They range in
      styles from simple round or oval-shaped models to more modern styles with
      lower internal volumes and a wider field of vision.  A low-profile mask,
      shown in Figure M1, has a notched faceplate and a nose . .  . .

           [Spot 4] There are three basic styles of BCDs.  The back-mounted BCD, in Figure
      B1, is similar to a backpack because it rests behind the diver.  Another
      type shown in Figure B2, the front-mounted BCD, is in the form of a life
      vest and is worn over the head.  The third type of BCD shown in Figure B3,

      Regulators
      
           The next item of equipment to consider is what attaches to the tank
      valve, the regulator.  This piece of equipment is designed to convert high
      pressure air of a scuba tank to a level which we can breathe.  The
      mechanism of a regulator is very simple, as you inhale, a flexible
      diaphragm is sucked inward opening the inlet valve of the regulator by
      pushing down a lever.  As you exhale, that same diaphragm is forced outward
      releasing the lever and allowing the valve to close. (See Figure R1 for
      further explanation on this concept).  Attached to the mechanism is a
      mouthpiece similar to that of a snorkel.  This allows the diver to breath
      air through the largest airway, the mouth.  A purge valve is installed also
      in the regulator which allows you to access free flowing air should the
      regulator fail or to clear water from the valve.
      
                                  [Spot 1--level 1]
      [Spot 1--level 2]
           [Spot 1--level 3] The regulator is connected to the tank valve
      at a point called the octopus.This is a group of three high-pressure hoses
      and a low-pressure hose.  Two high-pressure hose consists of a regulator
      connecting to the tank valve by a high-pressure hose.  The second stage
      high-pressure hose, usually called an alternate air source, is used as an
      emergency regulator for you if your first stage high-pressure hose is not
      working properly or as for your buddy during an emergency.  The third hose
      is connected to the submersible pressure gauge.  The low-pressure hose
      connects to the low-pressure inflator of your BCD.  Figure O1 gives an
      example of a typical octopus.

      [Spot 2--level 2]
           [Spot 2--level 3]The next step in setting up your new video driver under OS/2 is to prepare
      your installation disks from the file you downloaded.  You will need two
      preformatted 3-1/2 inch diskettes.
      
      
      1. Create a directory on your computer called TMPINST.
      2. Copy 732_OS2A.EXE to that directory.
