Dive numbering shown during dive planning
Dives belong to the same repetitive dive series if the instrument was still counting down the
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.
