=== Planning rebreather dives
|
||||
|
||||
To plan a dive using a passive semi-closed rebreather (pSCR), select "pSCR" rather than
|
||||
"Open circuit" in the Planning tab. This takes the oxygen drop in the rebreather into account.
|
||||
The parameters of the pSCR can be set in the preferences in the Graph tab. A warning apears
|
||||
in the dive plan details, if the pO~2~ drops below what is considered a save value. For pSCR dives,
|
||||
the gas consumption calculation takes into account the pSCR ratio (default 10:1).
|
||||
|
||||
To plan a dive using a closed circuit rebreather (CCR), select the "CCR" option in the PLannig tab.
|
||||
This makes all user entered segments use the default setpoint value (configured in the Preferences
|
||||
in the Graph tab). The gases from the gas list are considered to be diluent gases (the oxygen tank is
|
||||
implicitely assumed to be present).
|
||||
|
||||
Then, individual setpoints can be set for dive segments in the "Dive planner points" table. A zero setpoint
|
||||
means the diver bails out to open circuit mode for that segment. The decompression is always calculated
|
||||
with the setpoint of the last manually entered segment. So, to plan an bail out ascent for a
|
||||
CCR dive, add a one minute dive segment in the end with a setpoint value of 0. The decompresseion
|
||||
algorithm does not switch decogases automatically in CCR mode (but of course for bail out ascents).
