Matching GAP to HSE?

Hi all
I did my first KISS deco dive with my "new" HS Explorer on Sunday..nothing too extreme, 38m for 35 minutes on the bottom, total run 55min. I had cut a table in GAP Lite, Air dil planned for 1.2 on the bottom, 1.0 on ascent and 0.7 at 6m (was diving with a buddy on O/C so was in no rush to get out). GAP would only give me a deepest stop of 9m on these set points with the balance at 6 & 3m, the HS set to CF2 (RGBM cold water) wanted a minute at 15m then 12m stop, 9m, 6m, 3m etc. So does anyone have a suggestion as to what to set the GF high/low to in GAP to more closely follow the HS's deco profile?...I do not want to know about Vplanner etc as Gap lite & the HS are what I have
Thanks
Mike

Why dont you use the RGBM setting in GAP-Lite?

Hi Kees
RGBM is ticked on, Rfac1 Pfac1 Bfac1 Temp 0, conservatism "user set", the BuhlmannGF box isn't ticked but the GF is showing as High 75 Low 25....I will have a look at the manual but any pointers are appreciated

OK...checked the manual ...problem was RGBM settings were ticked but still at "user set" in the dropdown window...I have now set it to +1 conservatism & the deep stops start at 15m for the profile above which is nearer to what I was expecting...
Do you know if the Explorer RGBM implementation for CF2 (cold water, Heavy work) is closer to GAP "nominal" or +1 conservatism...

It depends on the profile.. There is no one setting that works.. The explorer increases the BFAC as you go deeper.. IF I remember correctly its .1 per ata

OK that's fine...at the relatively shallow depths I'm operating at I should be able to get a fairly close track between the table & the computer. The more I use the HS the more I like it.
