Time to surface (Asc Time)
The ascent time is given by the sum of:
• duration of the various decompression stops;
• time required to ascend at an average speed of
10 m/min (32 ft/min);
• any deep stops.
Decompression stops
Nemo also checks that the decompression stops are
performed correctly; two icons graphically indicate what
action the diver should take.
• 2 triangles: correct decompression stop depth;
• upward triangle: diver below decompression stop
depth, ascend!
• downward triangle: diver has ascended beyond
decompression stop depth, descend!
If the diver overshoots the decompression stop depth by
more than 30 cm (11 inches) the "downward triangle"
icon starts blinking; if the overshoot exceeds 1 m (3 ft)
an audible alarm is sounded in addition to the blinking
icon. These warnings remain active until the diver
returns to the correct depth.
WARNING
Never ascend above the correct
decompression stop depth.
WARNING
When the omitted deco stop alarms are
triggered, desaturation of the simulated
tissue compartments is halted and
resumes only when the diver returns to
the correct stop depth.
Note:
If the deco-stop overshoot exceeds one
meter and lasts more than three
minutes, the computer switches to
"Omitted Stop" mode and the
corresponding icon appears.
In this case, if after surfacing the diver
attempts a repetitive dive, Nemo will
function only as a depth gauge and
timer (BT mode), and display the errors
of the preceding dive.
