Besten Dank Ralph!

I'm still very puzzled with those new results. I'll have to invest time in adapting the GF to have matching runtimes on both computers.


Schönen Tag
Ludo

Thank you Ralf for the very detailed description of the parameters of influence! I still don't get why during diving I had deco stops at 12m and none at 9m. Coming back to the simulations I compare, there are no gas changes. Deco gas are deactivated. And the 1m/min after 3m doesn't influence the dec...

Thank you Claude.
You have a 3rd different result too.

Kind regards
Ludo

@HW: which other parameter(s) could make such a difference?

Thank you
Ludo

Hello Claude

I don't really agree with your statement.
And testing it still leads to huge difference in DTR between the 2 computers /HwOS versions, as shown in the attachement.

Kind regards
Ludovic

Hello team, I upgraded my OSTC3 some time ago with the latest HWOS v2.97 I then parametered it with the same setting (GF 45/85 and saturation 110/90) as before and as on my OSTC2 with version HW v2.26 The runtimes I get on the OSTC3 are not comparable to previous similar dives, I get deco stops at l...

Thanks Matthias for confirming such critical parameters are checked from release to release.
I have an OSTC3, so no Bluetooth, and the screen brughtness parameters are always set to the minimum.
I hardly use the compass.

So consumption remains a mystery.

Looking back in my log book, I've been diving almost 3 times longer with my first Saft LS 14500 than with the second.
Many firmware upgrades have been released in the meantime, could it be that latest firmwares are much more battery consuming?

Hello Matthias,

I was using the same battery as the original: Saft LS 14500

Ludo

That's a good question. I changed my first OSTC3 battery with less than 10% and finished the dive without problem. Last month I started a dive with 34% battery. When doing the safety stop, the OSTC3 was warning about 10% battery and it didn't make it until the end of the dive. (by the way the log do...

It looks great, congrats!
+1 for bearings

Cheers
Ludo

Great Release, congrats!

Hi, Would it be possible to implement two different PpO2 max ceilings: . one for the bottom gas - one for deco gas Some federations use e.g. 1.4 bar for the bottom gas, and 1.6 bar for deco gases. I would like to use different settings for those gases types, I'm sure it will be used by other tec div...

Some good suggestions!
I'm looking forward to using them on my OSTC3

Cheers
Ludo

Hi


Would it be possible to implement the gas consumption estimation when doing a simulation? This would bring additional security to the manual dive planning.

Thanks in advance
Ludo

Hallo zusammen,

Update to v1.40 done, thanks again for the safety stop

No issue with the compass, working fine. And still looking forward to a graphical representation with bearings.

Regards
Ludo

Hey, good news!!
Thanks Matthias and team for the integration of the safety stop!

Looking foward to the next firmware

Hi everyone, If I read the product tag line correctly, it says: "Our OSTC 3 is the perfect fit for recreational divers with an interest in technically challenging dives" So, definitely not just for technical dives. Matthias, if the feature is already implemented on the OSTC2, it should be ...

Hi It looks like more and more OSTC3 customers are requesting the safety stop feature. I use my OSTC3 in simple dives without deco as well as in more complicated dives with deco: we are talking about security here with the safety stop feature, the OSTC3 must be able to provide the necessary security...

I agree with dnaandy for a classical graphic compass implementation. I would also find it useful to have the posibility to lock a bearing.(tu) Bad experience yesterday when divin for the first time with my OSTC3: it generates quite a strong magnetic field around it, so that it completely offsets my ...

Hi Denis
That's also what I would like to do.
However the battery you suggest is bigger than a AA battery. Can it fit in the OSTC3?


Ludovic

Hi Has anyone experience with rechargeable batteries and the OSTC3? - Would NiMH fit or is the nominal voltage too low? - What about those Lithium-Manganese (and cutting the lugs) http://www.conrad.ch/ce/fr/product/250848/Batterie-Emmerich-Li-manganse-ULF?ref=list They need a special charger. Thanks...
