NO DECO DIVE TIME REMAINING (NDC)
The Element II constantly monitors No Decompression status.
NDC is the maximum amount of time that you can stay at your
present Depth before entering a Decompression situation. It is
calculated based on the amount of Nitrogen absorbed by
hypothetical tissue compartments.
The rates each of these compartments absorb and release
Nitrogen is mathematically modeled and compared against a
maximum allowable Nitrogen level.
Whichever one is closest to this maximum level is the controlling
compartment for that Depth. Its resulting value will be displayed
as NDC (Fig. 49a) and the NiBG (Fig. 49b).
As you ascend from Depth during a dive, the NiBG segments
will recede as control shifts to slower compartments.
This is a feature of the Decompression model that is the basis for
multilevel diving, one of the most important advantages that the
Element II dive computer offers.
