2.3.9 PMG
(default:
OFF)
Galileo can calculate decompression
schedules for dives in which up to three Nitrox
mixes are used (PMG stands for Predictive
Multi Gas). This adds signifi cant complexity
to the interface, so for increased ease of
use for single gas dives, with this option you
can quickly turn Galileo into a single gas
computer (without erasing any of the settings
you may use for multi gas diving).
2.4 Digital
compass
Galileo has a tilt-compensated digital
compass which can be used at almost
any inclination. The compass can be called
up at any moment during the dive and it
can also be used on the surface. This
menu allows you to use the compass on
the surface, change the auto-off time and
assign a declination to compensate for the
deviation between true North and magnetic
North.
2.4.1 Using the compass on the
surface
Upon selecting the
USE COMPASS
menu, the screen will display the compass,
the time of day and the surface interval, if
applicable. The buttons are now labeled
SET
and
EXIT
.
With the middle button (
SET
), you can
set a reference bearing. This is useful for
instance if you are on a boat and there is a
landmark on the shore that you can use for
alignment to reach a specifi c spot on that
dive site.
Press SET
to set the bearing,
and the display shows the message
SET
BEARING SUCCESSFUL
for 2 seconds.
A dot will appear to indicate the set
bearing. Once underwater, align the dot
with the arrow and start swimming in that
direction. If you
press SET
again, the new
bearing will override the one in memory. If
you
press and hold SET
you erase the
bearing. When you set a bearing, Galileo
automatically marks the points at 90, 120
and 180 degrees as an aid in navigation.
See section 3.4.1 for more information on
using this feature.
The right button (
EXIT
) returns to the main
Digital compass
menu.
