WHEN ENTERING THE PLANNODEC MODE THE DISPLAY FIRST BRIEFLY

SHOWS TISSUE LOADING, THE REMAINING DESATURATION TIME BEFORE GOING INTO PLAN

MODE. USE UP AND DOWN BUTTONS TO SCROLL DIFFERENT NO-DECOMPRESSION LIMITS.

NO-DECOMPRESSION LIMITS LONGER THAN 99 MINUTES ARE DISPLAYED AS “–”.

The Planning mode takes into account the following information from previous dives:

•any calculated residual nitrogen

•all dive history for the past four days

The no-decompression times given for different depths will therefore be shorter than before your first “fresh” dive.

You can exit the planning mode by pressing the MODE button.

NOTE

The Planning mode is disabled in GAUGE mode and in Error mode

 

(see Section 5.6. Error conditions). The planning mode calculates

 

no-decompression times for MIX1 only. If an additional mix is enabled

 

in the NITROX mode, it does not affect the calculations in PLANNoDec

 

mode.

Higher Altitude and conservative Personal Adjustment settings will shorten the no-decompression time limits. These limits at different Altitude and Personal Adjustment setting selections are explained in Section 5.9.4. Diving at altitude and in Section 5.9.5. Personal adjustments

Dive numbering shown during dive planning

Dives belong to the same repetitive dive series if the instrument was still counting down the no-fly time at the beginning of the dive.

The surface interval must be at least 5 minutes for a dive to be considered a repetitive dive. Otherwise, it is considered a continuation of the same dive. The dive number will not change and the dive time will continue where it left off. (See also Section 7.2. Dive numbering ).

7.5.2. Simulation Mode (PLANsimulator)

The Simulation mode can be used to become familiar with the features and displays of the device before diving, to plan dives in advance, for demonstrational or educational purposes, or just for fun.

In the Simulation mode, time runs faster than real time, so after 15 seconds using a simulator, the dive time will be one minute.

Dive Simulator

The Dive Simulator is an excellent tool for familiarizing yourself with your dive computer and for planning your dives. The Dive Simulator allows you to "perform" dive profiles of your choice and to see what the display would look like during an actual dive - including basic dive information as well as audible and visual warnings.
