3. Diving with Galileo
In
FULL
confi guration, the alarm message
CNS O
2
=
100%
is displayed in place of
the no-stop or decompression information
for 12 seconds and during this time the
audible signal goes off. In addition, in the
lower left corner, the CNS O
2
information is
displayed in inverted colors (white on a black
background) and remains displayed until the
CNS O
2
value drops under 100%. Alternate
information is accessible as described
in section 3.3.4, but after 5 seconds the
inverted CNS O
2
is again shown.
In all confi gurations, the alarm message
and the audible signal are repeated for
5 seconds in one minute intervals after the
fi rst occurrence and for as long as the value
of CNS O
2
stays at or above 100% or until
the ppO
2
drops under 0.5bar (see section
3.1 for a list of depths at which ppO
2
equals
0.5bar for some typical Nitrox mixes).
3.2.4 Missed
decompression
stop
!
WARNING
Violating a mandatory decompression obligation
may result in serious injury or death.
In
CLASSIC
confi guration, the alarm message
MISSED DECO STOP
! is displayed for
12 seconds in the bottom row and the depth
is shown in inverted colors (white on black
background) for as long as the diver stays
above the prescribed stop depth. The audible
signal persists until the diver descends to the
prescribed depth or deeper.
In
FULL
confi guration, the alarm message
MISSED DECO STOP
! is displayed for
12 seconds in the bottom row and the
depth is shown in inverted colors (white
on black background) for as long as the
diver stays above the prescribed stop
depth. The audible signal persists until the
diver descends to the prescribed depth or
deeper.
3.2.5 RBT = 0 minutes
The RBT (remaining bottom time) is the
time you can spend at the current depth
and still have enough gas supply to make a
safe ascent and reach the surface with the
tank reserve. The RBT calculation is based
on your current breathing rate, accounts for
any existing and upcoming decompression
obligation and for any temperature gradient
in the water. It assumes an ascent at the
ideal ascent rate (defi ned in section 3.2.1).
When the RBT reaches 0 minutes, an alarm
is triggered: Galileo has computed that if you
start your ascent now and ascend at the ideal
ascent rate, you will arrive at the surface with
just the tank reserve, and any further delay
increases the risk that you run out of gas
supply before reaching the surface.
