So Just another walk in th park for my two guys in training,
both diving vpm VR3 yesterday on exactly the same profile when one had had 18 mins of deco and the other 48 mins all setup is identical.
having cleared the deco at 12m - 9m we moved to the final stop 6m and the one unit pushed us back to 12m for more stops???????
Both are the latest version computers with vpm
I think I will be using my new software from now on, its called Mcdeco-on-the -fly
You will be able to down load it soon from my website it in a super size version with extra relish.
damn thats kinda worrying. Years ago I was doing a dive and at 10m I looked at my vr3 and it said i was at 20m. I was going to send it back but never got around to it. It never repeated the error again in all this time so I have no idea what the heck was going on.
I was using an explorer once and on ascent at 80m it gave me a 2 min stop. after what felt like 2 mins i looked at it and it was still showing 2mins (2mins can seem a life time sometimes on deco) a few mins later I looked again and still showed 2 mins.
The little pool of brown water collecting in the corner of the screen told me it was flooded and the display frozen. I had been sat there for probably 5+ mins ongassing like an idiot!
This is one of the reasons I dive with a couple of comps (3) I figure chances of all 3 going south are small - if they do its gonna be a loooong deco
PS you dont have time to have a McDECO you have too many students waiting! - how many certs you done this month?
