Hello Antoine,

The OSTC measures the ambient pressure every minute in sleep. All calculations during the dive are based on this surface pressure (In detail, the 30min old Surfacepressure is used to avoid that the OSTC "compensates" in the water during swimming ect.). When diving in high altitude the decompression stops will be longer, of course.

regards,
Matthias
