NOTE: Temperature affects the battery voltage. If the dive computer is stored at

temperatures below freezing point, the low battery warning may be displayed even

though the battery has enough capacity in warmer conditions. Make sure that the low

battery warning disappears before diving.

3.2.2 Dive Planning

It is possible at any time on the surface to enter the DIVE PLANNING mode, simply

by touching the PLAN/ON and COM contacts. The display will rapidly cycle through

the no-decompression limits for various depths from 9 m [30 ft] to 45 m [150 ft] in 3 m

[10 ft] increments (Fig. 3.5). It takes about 45 seconds to run through the complete

cycle, after which the dive computer will automatically return to the READY display.
Higher personal/ altitude adjustment modes will shorten the no-decompression time

limits. These limits at different personal/ altitude adjustment mode selections are

shown in Tables 6.1 and 6.2 in Section 6.1, “OPERATING PRINCIPLES”.

DIVE NUMBERING SHOWN DURING
DIVE PLANNING

Several repetitive dives are considered to belong to the same repetitive dive series

when the dive computer has not deactivated itself. The first dive of the series will be

numbered as DIVE 1, the second as DIVE 2, the third as DIVE 3 etc. (Fig. 3.6). When

the surface time has been less than 10 minutes, the dives are considered to be the

same. The dive number will not change for the second part of such a dive and the dive

time will start where it left off.

Fig. 3.5 DIVE PLANNING

The no-decompression time limit at 30.0

m [100 ft] is 14 minutes in A1 mode.

Fig. 3.6 DIVE PLANNING

The no-decompression time limit at

30.0 m [100 ft] is decreased to 5 minutes in

A1 mode after the third dive of the series.
