Dive Modes

The Descent device supports six dive modes. Each dive mode has four phases: dive pre-check, surface display,

in-dive, and post-dive.

Single-Gas: This mode allows you to dive with a single gas blend. You can set up to 11 additional gases as

backup gases.

Multi-Gas: This mode allows you to configure multiple gas blends and switch gases during your dive. You can

set the oxygen content from 5–100%. This mode supports one bottom gas, and up to 11 additional gases as

decompression or backup gases.

NOTE: Backup gases are not used in no-decompression limit (NDL) and time to surface (TTS)

decompression calculations until you activate them during a dive.

CCR: This mode for closed-circuit rebreather (CCR) diving allows you to configure two partial pressure of

oxygen (PO2) setpoints, closed-circuit (CC) diluent gases, and open-circuit (OC) decompression and backup

gases.

Gauge: This mode allows you to dive with basic bottom timer features.

NOTE: After diving in gauge mode, the device can only be used in gauge or apnea mode for 24 hours.

Apnea: This mode allows you to free dive with apnea-specific dive data. This mode has a higher data refresh

rate.

Apnea Hunt: This mode is similar to the Apnea dive mode, but tuned specifically for spearfishers. This mode

displays simplified in-dive data, and disables start and stop tones.

Using the Pool Dive Mode

When the device is in pool dive mode, the tissue load and decompression lockout features function normally,

but dives are not saved to the dive log.

1 Hold LIGHT to view the controls menu.

2 Select .

The pool dive mode turns off automatically at midnight.
