4.4 DIVE SIMULATOR
The simulation mode can be used to plan dives in advance, for demonstrational or
educational purposes, or just for pleasure. The SOLUTION
á has complete dive
simulating capabilities, including repetitive dives. The simulator can also be used
between dives. The simulator will take into consideration the nitrogen loading from
previous dives and modify the no-decompression times accordingly.
The dive simulator is activated using the menu selection. Lift your fingers when dSI
is displayed. When in simulation mode, the depth is controlled using the three water
contacts. This has been described in detail in Section 2.3, "The Dive Simulator - For
Easy Learning".
4.5 SETTING TIME AND DATE
The current date and time is read by connecting the TIME/MODE and COM contacts
for about one second, as described in Section 3.2.3, "Calendar Clock Function".
