SubGear XP-3G - 3.6 Diving in Mountain Lakes

36
Diving with Subgear XP-3G
WARNING
For the calculations of the desaturation and no-y time it is assumed that the diver breathes air while
on the surface.
3.5.2 Residual nitrogen bar graph
The segments in the residual nitrogen bar graph will gradually turn off as Subgear XP-3G
follows the offgassing of your tissues during your surface interval. There is a 1:1 equivalence
in the meaning of the segments between diving and surface. Thus, on a repetitive dive the
bar will resume from its status on the surface just prior to the dive. There are two exceptions
however:

No-fly time
Ascent to altitude range 4 prohibited
5 minutes after a dive Subgear XP-3G shows the time of day, the “do not fly time”, the
no-dive warning (if applicable), the current altitude range and the prohibited altitude range
(->38).
No-fly time is the time in hours that should pass before a flight and is displayed and
adjusted until the value becomes 0 hours.
WARNING
Flying while Subgear XP-3G displays “do not y” may lead to serious injury or death from
decompression sickness.
