How to plan a decompression dive
When planning a decompression dive, select Deco as the dive type and follow the same steps as for a no-decompression dive when setting the surface interval and depth. In addition, you must define your planned bottom time. While adjusting the bottom time, the planner displays the corresponding no-decompression limit (NDL) and total time to surface (TTS) for that depth.
The decompression plan shows a detailed breakdown of your planned dive, including:
- Type of Step: Descent, bottom, ascent, stop, or surface
- Depth
- Time to spend at each stop
- Accumulated run time at the end of each step
- Suggested gas for each segment
- Gas switch recommendation, if required
- Dive profile graph showing the depth curve and stop positions
- Total run time: Total dive time including all decompression stops
- Total decompression time required
NDL value at the maximum depth
