SAC Surface equivalent air consumption
|
||||||
|
The air consumed during a dive at different
|
||||||
|
depth is adjusted for depth/pressure to give
|
||||||
|
an easy to understand air consumption number
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
OTU Oxygen Toxicity Unit - a measurement how O₂
|
||||||
|
negatively impacts the lung tissue. This number
|
||||||
|
has no unit, the values are rather abstract
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
CNS Central Nervous System Oxygen Toxicity - a
|
||||||
|
measurement how O₂ negatively impacts the
|
||||||
|
central nervous system - this is a percentage
|
||||||
|
or a number <= 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
maxCNS the highest CNS value during a dive
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
PO2, PN2, PHe These are all partial pressures of the three
|
||||||
|
PO₂, PN₂ gases Oxygen (O2 or O₂), Nitrogen (N2 or N₂)
|
||||||
|
and Helium (He).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
O₂%, He% The fraction of Oxygen and Helium in a gas.
|
||||||
|
The partial pressure is therefore the pressure
|
||||||
|
of the gas times the fraction of the specific
|
||||||
|
component. E.g. a gas with O₂% = 30 (also called
|
||||||
|
30% Nitrox or EAN30) at 30m depth (where the
|
||||||
|
pressure is 4atm) therefore has a PO₂ of
|
||||||
|
4 * 0.30 = 1.2

CSV Comma separated values - a common file format

|
Stopdepth The depth at which the diver needs to wait for
|
||||||
|
some time in order to "off-gas". Also deco stop.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
WorkPress Working Pressure of a tank - the pressure it should
|
||||||
|
be filled to
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
StartPress Starting Pressure - at the beginning of a dive
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
EndPress Ending Pressure - at the end of a dive
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Switch at the depth at which the diver wants to switch to
|
||||||
|
a certain gas
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Device ID Unique ID for a specific dive computer
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
trip dives are grouped into "trips" based on their
|
||||||
|
individual start time. As soon as there are more than
|
||||||
|
48h between dives the automated algorithm will start
|
||||||
|
a new trip
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
UDDF standardized file format
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
GFHigh, GFLow Gradient Factors of the Buehlman algorithm. These
|
||||||
|
impact the way the deco obligations are calculated
|
||||||
|
in Subsurface. Typically these are between 20 and 100.
|
||||||
|
Lower is more conservative (i.e., more deco). It's
|
||||||
|
possible to use values below 20 and above 100 in
|
||||||
|
certain circumstances, but 70/30 is much more common.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
CC Closed circuit - short for "repreather diving"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
OC Open circuit - traditional scuba
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
CC Set Point Rebreathers often are run with a fixed PO₂ - the "set point"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Bailing out to OC
|
||||||
|
in a rebreather dive the dive switches to their emergency
|

Auto Group automatically arrange dives into trips
|

|
||||||
|
Ceiling when the diver is "in deco", i.e., when the diver cannot
|
||||||
|
directly ascend to the surface but has to put in "stops"
|
||||||
|
to give their body time to "off gas" (reduce the amount of N₂
|
||||||
|
and potentially He in the body), there is a minimum depth
|
||||||
|
they should not climb above - that's the ceiling. Often a
|
||||||
|
diver will do a deco stop well below the ceiling
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Viz short for visibility

belt, ankle weight system types - a backplate is used mostly by tech

safety stop stop at the end of a recreational dive, typically
