7. Freedive Mode
Freedive Mode optimizes the Tern for freediving�
Although many of the basic functions of the computer
are the same as in other dive modes, Freedive Mode
has several unique features that are covered in this
section�
Since decompression tissues are not tracked in
Freedive Mode, changing to or from Freedive Mode
resets the deco tissues�
Free Dive Mode features:
• High Speed depth sampling - 4 samples / second�
• Fully customizable vibration alerts
• Freedive focused Info screens
• Quick Log Tagging
7.1. Default Freediving Layout
By default, Freedive Mode uses the Big layout� It shares
most features with the other dive modes but has a few
unique characteristics�
• Active Freediving Set shown beside Mode Indicator�
• Last dive time and max depth on home screen
• Ascent / descent shown in feet per second (fps) or
meters per second (mps) instead of fpm / mpm�
