2.  Menus, settings and functions

If there is remaining desaturation on the 
computer at the time of starting the dive 
planner, the text 

ADD

SURF

INT

. appears 

on the display. This allows you to defi ne an 
additional surface interval to what has already 
elapsed since the end of the last dive. 

Press

 

the 

+

 or 

-

 buttons to defi ne this interval, then 

press

 

>>

 to confi rm it. If at present there is 

a prohibited altitude recommendation due 
to the last dive, Galileo shows you how the 
prohibited altitude changes with increasing 
surface interval. 

Press

 

>>

 directly if you want 

to plan without an additional surface interval. 
In case Galileo is displaying the no-dive 
warning (section 1.5), the duration of the 
warning itself is displayed as recommended 
surface interval for planning purposes 
(rounded up to the nearest fi fteen minute 
increment).

2.11.1  Planning a no-stop dive

To plan a no-stop dive, enter a depth using 
the 

+

 or 

-

 buttons (depth will change in 

3m/10ft increments): Galileo will show you 
what the corresponding no-stop time is. 
Depths greater than the current MOD are 
not displayed. 

Press and hold

 

>>

 at any 

time to exit the dive planner and return to 
the main menu.

 NOTE: 

 

If you have set ppO

2

max to 

OFF

, the 

planner will show only depths up to 
a corresponding ppO

2

max value of 

1.6bar.

At any point, 

press

 

>>

 to switch to the 

decompression dive planner for the 
indicated depth. Galileo will add one minute 
to the no-stop time and show the resulting 
decompression obligation.

2.11.2  Planning a decompression dive

Once in the decompression dive planner, 
you can change the bottom time in one 
minute steps via the 

+

 and 

-

 buttons. 

Every time you increase the bottom time, 
Galileo shows you the corresponding 
decompression schedule in terms of 
deepest stop, time at deepest stop and 
total ascent time.

Pressing

 

>>

 while in the decompression 

dive planner will bring you back to the no-
stop dive planner. This allows you to choose 
a different depth and continue planning. To 
exit the dive planner at any point in time, 

press and hold

 

>>

. This will bring you 

back to the main menu.

2.12 Reviewing the logbook

A dive is entered into the logbook if the 
dive time is longer than 2 minutes. Galileo 
can record the profi les of approximately 
100 hours of diving. The information can 
be transferred to PC via the SmartTRAK 
software and an infrared interface (see 
Chapter 4 for details). In addition, Galileo 
can show most of the information directly
