error mode?

Hi,
I was wondering, does the computer go in errormode in some cases? I'm refering to things like skipping a decostop, surfacing without the necessary stops etc. How does the computer react on this? Error mode, longer stops, or just all kinds of alarm until you go back to the decostop you have to make (or until you're desaturated), or ...?
Thx,
Kurt

Hello Kurt,

The OSTC does not "lock up" after violations, it will display warnings but can be used for the next dive assuming that its user knows what he/she is doing... Decompression will be much longer for the next dives, of course.
