4050675965ea 3.10 stable release

4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
64 It is only effective if "CalcGas(B/O)" is switched on, too. If both
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
65 options are switched on, the deco calculation will switch to another

66 tank (i.e. gas) once the tank of the current gas is calculated to be
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
67 used up.
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
68 This function can be used to automatically calculate a contingency in
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
69 case of running out of a deco gas, as the deco calculation will then
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
70 continue to calculate a deco making use of the spares from the another
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
71 gases carried. Another application is with two or more tanks holding
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
72 the same gas (i.e. independent double configuration, side-mount), as
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
73 the calculations will then take the cumulative amount of gas carried
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
74 into account before raising a gas needs attention or alarm.
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release

75
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp

76 - Fixed the urge of the better gas hint to always favor one specific gas
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
77 out of a set of two or more gases that have the same change depth.

4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:

80 showing the tissue pressures and supersaturation levels as of at the
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release

86 - When changing the battery or doing a cold start, the current CNS value
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
87 does not get lost any more.

88
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:

89 - During loading of a new firmware the clock will not loose time any more
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:

90 (on old firmware it became late by about 15 sec on each firmware update).

heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
91
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
92 - When run from a 3.6 V battery (either replaceable or built-in), the
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
93 surface mode timeout is now extended to 4 minutes before going to sleep
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
94 mode. If the OSTC is run from 1.5 V disposables, the timeout remains at
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
95 the previous 90 seconds to save on battery runtime.

4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
diff changeset
98 the communication system (firmware uploading, dive data downloading)
4050675965ea 3.10 stable release
heinrichsweikamp
parents:
