VI Dive Planner

1 Survey

The Aladin

®

 Sport is equipped with a dive planner which allows the planning of no-stop and decompression

dives with freely determinable surface intervals. The water temperature of the most recent dive and present
altitude sections 

 are incorporated in the calculation.

The Aladin

®

 Sport does not allow the planning of decompression dives.
