EAD custom view - change po2 to EADD

As we have a stable 2.x now I'd like to come up with a previous discussion started in here: http://www.heinrichsweikamp.com/read.ph ... 3#msg-4713

In the custom view for EAD/END there is ppO2 displayed which - for CCR usage - covers the part of O2 in the loop contributed by the diluent, which is uncommon and IMHO of no use. Do others think the same?

As the diluent ppO2 (which is important to know) is already shown on the main screen (triggered by CF settings) there is no need to show an (other) ppO2 in the custom view. A more related value to the already displayed EAD and EAN would be EADD - Equivalent Air Density Depth. This would be a similar value as EAD and END and would match in this custom view perfectly.

Would like to here your feedback on this :-).

Just to make clear: This is not a personal request by me but an idea to be discussed to improve the unit further.

Thx,
Jan

Jan,
You convice me already. Long ago. Since eons, the ppO2 is the Flush ppO2 you will get if you do a Diluant flush... ;-)
Which is an important security issue you might have to check when you have O2 cells in trouble.

See the example below:

Diluant air. Depth = 10m, so Pamb = 2bar. Diluant flush pO2 is 0.42 bar.

Enjoy,

But isn't the Diluent ppO2 (fiO2) already displayed in the main screen (depending on the limits set by the CF)? I think yes and I use it this way already by setting the limit to display very low, i think it is CF19 but would check this again.

Thx,
Jan
