Section 4: Pre-Dive Planning Mode

Overview

The Monitor 3 Air has a built-in dive planner that allows you to plan both no-stop dives and decompression dives. The planner takes into account the temperature of the most recent dive and altitude.

WARNING: Planned decompression dives violate the responsible diving practice standards of every major diving organization. Recreational or sport scuba divers should not attempt decompression dives. Only professional divers with extensive experience, training, and the appropriate equipment for decom- pression diving (including the presence of an on- board recompression chamber) should attempt to plan a decompression dive. Those who attempt decompression dives must be willing to accept an increased risk of decompression sickness.

You can access the Pre-Dive Plan Mode form either Ready Mode or Surface Mode. When you access the planner from Surface Mode, you have the option of adding surface- interval time to plan for a dive at some point later in the day.
