Set Dive - Mode
Set Dive - Mode is used for setting the general
parameters for the planned type of dive, as described
previously for air. This section covers dives using Nitrox
breathing mixes.
Nitrox
The general parameters for Nitrox dives are
the same as those for compressed air dives
(Air), with the addition of settings for the
percentage of oxygen and its maximum
partial pressure:
- oxygen percentage (%O2) in the Nitrox mix;
- maximum O2 partial pressure (PPO2)
- altitude
- personal correction factor
- uncontrolled ascent
- audible alarms
This section will describe only the two
parameters specific to Nitrox dives.
Therefore, users are advised to carefully read
the "Set dive - Mode - Air" section, before
proceeding further with the Nitrox section.
WARNING
Users are advised to carefully read the
"Set Dive - Mode - Air" section, before
proceeding further with the section on
Nitrox dives.
WARNING
The use of oxygen rich mixes exposes
the diver to different hazards from
those associated with compressed air.
The diver should be aware of these risks
and understand how to avoid them.
