Higher Altitude and conservative Personal Adjustment settings will shorten the no-
decompression time limits. These limits at different Altitude and Personal Adjustment
setting selections are explained in Section 5.8.4. Diving at altitude and in Section 5.8.5.

Dive numbering shown during dive planning
Dives belong to the same repetitive dive series if the instrument was still counting
down the no-fly time at the beginning of the dive.
The surface interval must be at least 5 minutes for a dive to be considered a repetitive
dive. Otherwise, it is considered a continuation of the same dive. The dive number
will not change and the dive time will continue where it left off. (See also Section 7.2.
Dive numbering).
7.5.2. Simulation Mode (PLAN Simulator)
The Simulation mode can be used to become familiar with the features and displays
of the device before diving, to plan dives in advance, for demonstrational or educational
purposes, or just for fun.
In the Simulation mode, time runs faster than real time, so after 15 seconds using a
simulator, the dive time will be one minute.
Dive Simulator
The Dive Simulator is an excellent tool for familiarizing yourself with your dive computer
and for planning your dives. The Dive Simulator allows you to "perform" dive profiles
of your choice and to see what the display would look like during an actual dive - in-
cluding basic dive information as well as audible and visual warnings.
