Sharing Dive Settings Between Devices
It is your responsibility to use discretion when sharing information with others. Always ensure you are aware of and comfortable with the individual with whom you share information.
You can transfer dive settings between two dive computers. For example, you can share settings between your primary and backup dive computers, or your dive computer and that of another user, such as an instructor.
The dive computer receiving the data performs a simulated dive test to confirm the new settings and tissue load. If there is an issue with the data sharing process, the dive computer receiving the data provides more details about the issue.
