Hello,

I have done a dive today. All ok.
When I was on the surface I saw that on the screen indicated me to choose if the battery was new, rechargeable, etc. I suppose that the contacts have been touched with the fold or ring of the dry glove and it has arrived at that screen without me being aware ...

Hi Ralph,


In the OSTC manual you can read that it can be set between 80% and 100%. In fact, in my OSTC I can only set a value between 80% and 100%. I cannot set a value lower than 80%.

Anyway, I would like to know what this set refers to. Could you explain a bit more?

Also whether it should have ...

Hi,

Could you explain this setting in a little more detail?

In my AP Inspiration, when I am calibrating O2 cells, the OXIGEN % is requested. It is requesting the oxygen % in the scrubber lid after the oxigen inject take place during calibration. Default value is 98%.

It is not clear to me that ...

Hi Ralph,

thank you very much for your quick reply. Well explained and understood.

[quote]PS: i would opt for more convervative GFs while in CCR mode as length of the dive => available gas volumes is not the key limiting factor. But in BO, when gas reserves may become marginal, i would rather have ...

Hi,


I have two question, both of them in CCR mode:

- When I want to simulate a dive, in the menu calculator setup I have three options. I don't understand gas cont. meaning.

- In the same menu I have use aGF. Whether you choose it or not, the calculator uses the GF for both parts of the dive ...

Hi Ralph,

explained and understood. Thank you!!

Hi,

I have done a simulation in CC mode and I have a doubt.

These are the simulation data:
Diluent: TX17/37
SP: 1.3
BT: 12'
Depth: 60m
GF: 50/85
SAC Work: 18L/min
SAC Deco: 16L/min
Bailout: TX18/43 (first) and NX50 (Deco)

These are the results referring to bailout:
from the bottom to 21m I ...

Hi,

I've already found where the problem was.
In setup I did not put the depth of the SP change. Default= 0 m.
So the whole dive was done with a low SP of 0.7

Thanks

BR

Hi Matthias,

First of all, thanks for the quickly respond.

I'm sure that for the OSTC deco stops has been omitted, since the whole dive was done with 0,7 low SP, which greatly lengthens the deco times.
However, the truth is that the dive was made with 1,3 high SP and all deco times and ascent ...

Hi,

4 days ago I did a CCR simple practice immersion. I used the OSTC as backup computer and setup the OST as Auto SP.
My guess is that the OSTC didn't automatically change from low to high SP because the TTS was much higher than the vision of the AP inspiration.
I have to look why it doesn't ...

Hi Ralph,

Thank you very much for the quick answer.
Doubts have been completely resolved.

Hi.
I've done one simulation in my OSTC plus in CCR mode. Data:
Dil NX32
B/O NX30
SP 1.3

I realize a couple of details:

1- At 30m. I have a diluent warning ppO2 1.25. This warning tells me that if I would flush with my diluent now or breathe it OC, the ppO2 value would be too high or too low ...

Hi Ralph,

Colud you check the 0 m MOD issue?
Thanks.

Hi Ralph,

I think so. I have the feeling that we do not understand some things because of my level of English, which is not very good. Sorry about it.

I know that I always have to select the gases maually, either via the menu or by acknowleding the gas-switch promt. My question refer to paragraph ...

Hi Ralph,


Thank you very much for the reply. It has cleared up a lot of things for me.

Just a few questions in paragraph C and E:

- On the ascent, do I have to manually (via the menu) select the gas1, configured as trip, to use it as deco? Or is it going to be the computer itself that suggests ...

Hi Matthias,

I wold like to make sure that I have understood you correctly.

Predive. Setup gas list:
Gas1, first, TX 12/65, depth MOD
Gas2, deco, TX 16/45, depth 51 m.
Gas3, deco, TX 30/30, depth 42 m.
Gas4, deco, NX50, depth 21 m.
Gas5, deco, O2, depth 6 m.

Just after starting the descent ...

Hi Matthias,

I know it's no usual but I like to use a gas that pulls me off the bottom in case of problems with the bibo (emergency gas).
I could not use it if it was not necessary, and then I would have 4 gases, one of the four would also be the travel gas.
But I also want to use the emergency ...

Hello,

in the OSTC plus I can set up until 5 gases. But if I need a travel gas, a bottom gas and four deco gas, how do I set it up?

Actually, I use five gases, but the travel gas and one of the deco gas I have to configure twice. Once as travel gas and once as deco gas, and both at the same depth ...

Hello,

I have the following problem trying to recharge the battery on my OSTC plus.

The battery was at 15% when I put it to recharge with the qi charging pad, but the screen stayed black and the qi charging pad kept a constant red light.

I have changed the battery for a rechargeable one. I have ...

Ok.

My question comes from the following doubt.
Data that I use (there is a little difference in the numbers with yours):

- Standar conditions. 0º C and 101,325 kPa
He 0,179 g/L
N2 1,251 g/L
O2 1,428 g/L

- Normal conditions. 25º C and 101,325 kPa
He 0,166 g/L
N2 1,165 g/L
O2 1,331 g/L ...

Hi

How does OSTC calculate gas density for a given respired gas at a given depth?
What air and the individual components of gas mixes density values does the software use to calculate it?
Does it take temperature into account?

Thanks.

Sorry Matthias.
I was setting up the OSTC when I saw this funtcion.
I did not remember reading it in the manual and assumed it was a new funtcion.

Thanks.

Hello,

I can choose yes/no but I’m not sure about its function.

Could someone explain me the use for that setup?

Thanks.

Isobaric counter diffusion.
You can activate the warning in the ppO2 setup.

Hello,

respect to IBCD. I would like to know what increment value in a tissue there must be to display the IBCD warning.

Thanks.
