Diving Fields

Name Description

CNS Your current central nervous system oxygen toxicity percentage.

Current Gas PO2

The partial pressure of oxygen (PO2) of the diluent gas during a closed-circuit

rebreather (CCR) dive.

Maximum Depth The maximum depth descended during a dive.

N2/He Load Your current nitrogen and helium tissue load level.

OTU Your current oxygen toxicity units.

Time to Surface The amount of time required to safely ascend to the surface.

Surface Gradient Factor The expected gradient factor if the diver were to instantaneously surface.

Elevation Fields

Name Description

Avg. Ascent The average vertical distance of ascent since the last reset.

Avg. Descent The average vertical distance of descent since the last reset.

Elevation The altitude of your current location above or below sea level.

Glide Ratio The ratio of horizontal distance traveled to the change in vertical distance.

GPS Elevation The altitude of your current location using GPS.

Grade

The calculation of rise (elevation) over run (distance). For example, if for every 3m (10ft.)

you climb you travel 60m (200ft.), the grade is 5%.

Lap Ascent The vertical distance of ascent for the current lap.

Lap Descent The vertical distance of descent for the current lap.

Last Lap Ascent The vertical distance of ascent for the last completed lap.

Last Lap Descent The vertical distance of descent for the last completed lap.

Last Move Ascent The vertical distance of ascent for the last completed move.

Last Move Descent The vertical distance of descent for the last completed move.

Max. Ascent The maximum rate of ascent in feet per minute or meters per minute since the last reset.

Max. Descent The maximum rate of descent in meters per minute or feet per minute since the last reset.

Max. Elevation The highest elevation reached since the last reset.

Min. Elevation The lowest elevation reached since the last reset.

Move Ascent The vertical distance of ascent for the current move.

Move Descent The vertical distance of descent for the current move.

Total Ascent The total elevation distance ascended since the last reset.

Total Descent The total elevation distance descended since the last reset.
