stop times or longer decompression
times. Moreover, the duration of the
no-dive warning at the end of the dive
can increase considerably.

while the display is switched off. If the
computer detects a sufficient increase
in altitude, it switches on automatically
and indicates the new altitude range (1-4)
and the desaturation time. Desaturation
time indicated at this moment refers to
adaptation time at this altitude. If the dive
starts within this adaptation time, Aladin 2G
treats it as a repetitive dive, since the body
is offgassing.
Altitude is divided into five ranges, which are
influenced by barometric pressure. That is
why the defined altitude ranges overlap on
their fringes. If a mountain lake is reached,
the altitude range is indicated at the surface
(time of day display), in the logbook and
in the dive planner by a stylized mountain
and the current altitude range. Sea level to
an altitude of approximately 1000m (3300ft)
is not indicated. In the following diagram,
you can see the approximate breakdown of
the altitude ranges:
