4.1. - Data Management.

This chapter deals with "surface" functions, namely data
management after a dive.
(Mode) button , you can enter the following functions: (
- Dive Logbook (chapter 4.1.2.); (
ter 4.1.3.); ( )- Dive Profile (chapter 4.1.4.); Data transfer
to PC with interface (optional) (chapter 4.1.5.).

4.1.1. - Surface Interval Time.

When you ascend back to less than 5ft depth, the UFDS dis-
play gives the following information (fig. 21):
1 Desaturation time, expressed in hours and minutes, and
indicated by the (
DESAT
2 "Don't Fly" ( ) icon.
When displayed, you should not fly or go to any altitude higher
than the diving site until this icon disappears from the screen.
IMPORTANT: DAN (Divers Alert Network) and UHMS
(Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society), before any flight
after a no-decompression dive, recommend a 12 to 24 hour
surface interval time, and a 48 hour interval after a decom-
pression dive or several particularly demanding dives;
3 surface interval time, expressed in hours and minutes, indi-
cating the current surface interval time and shown with the

NOTE: Dives taken after more than 10 minutes are con-

sidered as subsequent dives.
By pressing the M (Mode) button twice, you enter the dive
planning program that has already been described in Chapter
2.4 and represented by the (
(fig. 22). It takes account of tissue nitrogen left following the
previous dives, thus changing no-compression times which
will obviously be shorter than for the first dive.
Once saturation time has elapsed, the bar representing resid-
ual absorbed nitrogen (fig. 23) will be blank, meaning that all
the nitrogen has been eliminated and this factor is no longer
affecting subsequent dives.

4.1.2. - Dive Logbook (
The Archimede Cressi-sub dive computer stores the last 30
hours of diving (or the last 60 dives). Data are recorded in the
Logbook every 30 seconds. You can turn on the Logbook
while on surface by pressing the M (Mode) button repeated-
ly until the ( ) icon is displayed (fig. 24).
NOTE: Dives shorter than the recording time interval (30
seconds) will not be recorded.
Archimede's Logbook is an exceptional tool allowing you to
view data from past dives, listed in a chronological order
starting from the most recent dive.
