DECOMPRESSION DIVE MODE
The DataTrans Plus will help you to avoid and manage decompression.
WARNING: Oceanic recommends the application of respon-
sible diving practices and does not recommend decompression
diving, or diving deeper than 130 feet (39 meters), as these
practices will greatly increase your risk of decompression sick-
ness.
Decompression Dive Mode (Fig. 90), identified by the Decompression Dive icon
located to the left of the Main Time Display, activates when the theoretical no
decompression dive/depth limits are exceeded causing the Tissue Loading Bar
Graph to pass the yellow caution (C.Z.) zone and enter the red decompression
(DECO) zone. Also, the audible alarm will emit a double beep to alert you.
The other bar graphs will continue to represent their respective information.
Information displayed includes Tank Pressure, current depth, and total ascent
time that includes stop times required at all ceilings and vertical ascent time
calculated at 60 feet (18 meters) per minute. The Message Box alternately
flashes the required stop depth and time, and CEILING (Fig. 91).
The amount of decompression credit time that you receive is dependent on
depth, with slightly less credit given the deeper you are. Still, you must
