What happened is that you missed a VR3 deep stop.

You get 30 seconds to go back down and do it or it says "use tables". It does however still compute deco for you. I bet everyone who owns a VR3 has done that at least once.

Andrew,

My VR3 gives me a 60 second timer to get down below the stop level if you trav el above it. In fact my one real and only criticism with the VR3 is that if it asks me for an (e.g.) 18M stop, and I stop somewhere above ~18.6M, it will ask me to descend below 18, and give me the timer. In my books 18.6M is below 18???

Are the new ones 30 seconds?

Cheers,
Michael

PS. I know this sounds like nagging, but when's the next Surface Interval coming out?
