Using the NiTek Plus

44 NiTek Plus Dive Computer User Manual

Surface mode (upon surfacing from a dive)

Once you surface from a dive, the NiTek Plus automatically

switches to time mode. In addition to the normal information

displayed in time mode such as time of day, there is other

information that is displayed that pertains to the dive you just

completed. This includes:

• Nitrogen (N2) bar graph

• Oxygen limit index (OLI) bar graph

Additional information is displayed on a second screen about the

dive, which includes:

• Desaturation time

• Surface interval time

This information is displayed on both screens until the NiTek

Plus calculates that it is no longer needed or after 24 hours have

passed since the last dive.

Note: If you are making repetitive dives, you need to pay

attention to your surface interval and use it in conjunction with

plan mode. This ensures that you stay within no-decompression

limits.

Note: The diagram above shows the information that is

displayed on each screen.

(1) Surface interval time: This is the amount of time you have

spent on the surface since your last dive if there is residual

nitrogen present from a previous dive. It can display up to 24

hours of surface interval time.
