Why not just make sure you do ...

So the color chart in your first reply in this thread is quite useless then?

Any plans for a gamma corrected color chart so we know what to test without manually have to scroll through 255 different settings?

There's a lot of things you Scubatinoo don't understand or agree with after following your posts in the forum.

Was this fix incorporated in the official 3.00 release?

I'm asking as my color config still is like the pics below (same result after complete CF reset and/or setting on the OSTC itself and not through OSTC tools).
Note the color of text and battery symbol...
Yellow is impossible to get on my ...

Can't you please write in English so the rest of us have a chance to understand whats being said?

I think it's a shame that so many discussions turns into nonsense whenever a forum-thread turns into German... (nonsense by not being able to understand)
Or don't you want input from other non-German ...

...even though I still (from a esthetic viewpoint) think the main display should be reworked with: "41.0" and "Max." swapping places.
All other data have the header above the data, so I don't understand why not the max depth value?
;)


DiverM, will you compile a 6m Safetystop binary again?

Again, thanks for your great support Matthias!
It's fun to read about the updates you do to the OSTC!

Exactly, make CF65 a numeric where the recommended values are 0 - 10. (minutes)
Obviously 0 would be = disabled.
And set it default = 0 (not to upset all hardcore tech'ies!) ;)

With the right keystrokes it works, thanks!

Another wish regarding the Surface Mode screen,
would it be possible to have the OSTC to remember what info it was showing before going to sleep mode or after a visit in the menus?

So if I would right-button until it shows the Surface Interval as an example, I would like the computer to remember ...

Yet again,
Thanks to Rob for his efferots!

And to scubatinoo, good comments and wishlist!

Used OSTCTools to flip CF42 again, and now it shows in Simulator mode. maybe there was a hickup during FW upgrade, whatever - so that can be removed.


But another feature that maybe would be nice regarding gaslist;
When the OSTC thinks there are a better gas (and CF 42 is set to ON), wouldn't it ...

Don't know what other think, but a few things I get annoyed about ;)

* Display in DiveMode: For me it's totally unknown why the label of max.depth is below the data? I think it would be more consistent with having label "Max." above the data. (So in the pic on heinrichs website it would say Max ...

Good work!

Regarding the safety-stop feature (CF65), I'm glad you added it.
I almost always dive with my set of doubles even though the dive itself don't require them, it gives muscle memory and repetition.
For the same reason it's nice to have the possibility to have safety-stop reminder turned on ...
