How are switches to bailout in CCR mode logged?

Post by danou »

Hi everybody,

Reading the latest ostc_interface_description.odt (dated 2013/05/26), I have a question about CCR mode: I do not understand how switches to bailout are recorded into the logbook.

For each dive in CCR mode, the 5 possible diluents are recorded in the header (bytes 19-28), it sounds reasonable to assume that the bailout gases are the same
(otherwise other bytes should be reserved in the header to store their composition).

Now, looking at the "Extended information", gas changes and setpoint changes are recorded, but how do I know when a gas change is a diluent change or a switch to bailout? In other words, when I switch from CC mode to OC mode during a dive, how is it recorded into the logbook?

Thanks and best wishes,

Hi Daniel,

There currently is no event "Bailout" or similar.

But I have now added a "bailout event" to the code and documentation. :)
