Dive Setup

You can customize the dive settings based on your needs. Not all settings are applicable for all dive modes. You can also edit the settings before you start a dive.

Hold MENU, and select Dive Setup.

Gases: Sets the gas blends used in the gas dive modes (Setting Up Your Breathing Gases). You can have up to twelve gases for each gas dive mode.

Dive Network & Air Integration: Allows you to pair Descent transceivers and configure the data screens (Air Integration).

Conservatism: Sets the level of conservatism for decompression calculations. Higher conservatism provides a shorter bottom time and a longer ascent time. The Custom option allows you to set a custom gradient factor.

NOTE: Make sure you understand gradient factors before entering a custom level of conservatism.

Water Type: Allows you to select the water type.
