Now it works OK.
So, it was just for your statistics records of unexplained failures.

Hi,
Last week, since I read that the new release 3.33 was available, I engaged the procedure to download it.
I got the release 3.34, why not.
When I dived this morning, my OSTC was down (see picture attached). I mean it was blocked on that screen (see below attached) when I jumped into the water ...

Die Kompass-Anzeige tut da wieder so, egal ob der OSTC beim abtauchen an ist, oder nicht.


Der Tauchgang am Montag war so toll, dass ich total vergessen hab die Funktion des Kompass zu testen... :-) Ich vertraue also voll und ganz euren Fähigkeiten :D


Would be useful to have an online ...

Hi,
I have just downloaded the said 3.33 version.
And now, I have the version 3.34 in my OSTC+, glups.
Yves

Thanks. So, I stick to hwOS TECH (forget hwOS TECH2).

I was in release 3.28. I tried to download the so-called new release 3.29, but I am now in release 3.30 (?).
What went wrong ?
What is the difference between hwOS Tech and hwOS Tech 02 ?
These 2 firmwaretypes are always available on my smartphone (HWOS Config) for choice.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
I was on Release 3.23 on an OSTC Plus loaded with hitech SW until september 2024. It worked OK with the new battery I had to changed because yours was HS after 2 years. Then in October this year I decide to install the Release 3.24 as advised before I leave for dive holiday in Madagascar.
I ...

Glups, my firmware version is 3.20

Hi Raph,

This is exactly what I expected to hear to confirm my understanding.
Thanks for your explanations.
It is all clear now.

Best Regards,
Yves

Thanks for your response.
Precisely, I have the english and french versions of this document, and my question derives from my understanding of this document.
Probably, my question was not clear enough.
In short, I wanted to know how sat/desat factors interact with the gradient factors when both are ...

Hi,
I am trying to figure out how the saturation/desaturation factors stand against the gradient factors. It looks clear to me that the gradient factors (GF) are simply a shift of the M-Values to bring more accurate stringency to the decompression calculations. However, although I understand that ...

Hi ralph,

Main menu->Settings, (then after Simulator)->Display settings->in following screen, second parameter between Speed graph and Display PpO2: Variable speed (default=no):
Here is my OSTC screen display (in french):
20201002_var_speed.jpg
French "Préfér. Réglages" = Display Settings
French ...

Thanks Ralph,

Although I understand your explanations, I have a couple of remarks:
"Variable Speed" is no longer in the current hwOS firmware.
I have the latest firmware v3.12 for the OSTC+ Tech that I downloaded recently, and I still have this Variable Speed parameter available for selection ...

Hi,
I read in page 9 of your referred document:

...you never come shallower than the indicated ceiling depth and never ascend faster than 10 meters per minute (this is anchored in the model)

How about if you choose "Variable speed" instead of 10m/min in your deco parameters?

I tried my ...

Hi Ralph,

It's all fine to me.
Thanks for your time and patience with me.

With best regards,
Yves

Hi,
I had the same problem. I believe it is adviseable to have a separate lithium battery charger, and a battery tester. This is cheap.
Once you charged the battery, you can check its load, and replace it in your OSTC. Then, place it again on your round shaped charger to synchronize your recharged ...

Hi Ralph,
Thanks a lot for your detailed explanations. I am getting closer to the heart of the OSTC :)
Yes, it is much clearer.
If you permit me, I still have some comments for your appreciation:

You: It is correct that the OSTC still shows NDL for a short time even if the ceiling already started ...

Thanks Matthias for this riveting didactic document.
However, I have still a question. In the OSTC "tissue chart" display you show on page 9, Figure 12, I see 2 sets of horizontal bars, apparently each for 16 tissues. What is the meaning of these 2 tissue bars?
I noticed on my OSTC+ tech four ...

Thanks Ralph,
I agree.
However, I received the new OSTC-GF-calculations document from Matthias, and, instead of determining the time without decostop as soon as the NDL=0 turns to decostop=3m, 1', I checked the Ceiling, and I used the simulator with the following parameters:
GF=30/85, depth=30m. I ...

Vielen Dank an Google für die Übersetzung
Das Problem der wiederaufladbaren Batterien ist sehr heikel. Sie müssen wirklich aufpassen, um aufzuladen, sobald die 30% -Ladung erreicht ist (sinkt).
Prost

Ralph? No feedback?

Hi Ralph,
Indeed, no problems to share my simulations.
Actually, I wanted to gauge the dive duration at the definite depth before a deco stop is displayed. My reference was the MN90 deco table of the french navy.
The selected depths at stake were : 9m, 12m, 15m, 20m, 25m, 30m, 40m, 45m, 50m.
Since ...

Thanks Matthias, this is great !
I am looking forward to reading this document that should be riveting.

Hi,
I assume that all computers using the ZH-L16+GF model from Erik Baker are the same.
Should my buddy be using a non-OSTC computer (eg Shearwater), and configure the GF parameters with the same configuration as my OSTC, can I take for granted than the deco will be the same (same deco stops and ...

Bonjour,
En effet, il faut chercher sur votre PC (ex Windows 10) le numéro de port COM utiliser pour la connexion Bluetooth, et la reporter dans HWOS Config sur Androïd :
Voici comment accéder aux paramètres Bluetooth :
Sélectionnez Démarrer > Paramètres > Périphériques > Appareils Bluetooth et ...
