Looks really good - Tell us more :-)

I would out of personal preference seperate important information, and nice to know:

Important:
Depth
PPO x3
Current Setpoint / OC
DiveTime
NDL / TTS
Decoceiling (+Stoptime)
Ascentrate
Current Gas

Less important - another screen perhaps
CNS
Temp
Max depth
END
EAD
Battery voltages
Deco-Setting (GF?)

Regards
Nicolai

Very impressive bit of homebuilding, my hat is well and truly off to you!

One thing comes to mind- your display reminds me of the HS Explorer, lots of info all over the screen, which is good once you've learnt it, probably easy for you as your wrote the code.

I know have a GF which uses a very simply 3 line display, diving and deco across the top, PPO2 in the middle and anything else at the bottom, its incredibly simple to use.

I don't know if you have any input devices to your GUI, whether you can prompt it to change info underwater? But in my mind you will want to simplify the working screen and have rarely needed info moved to somewhere a button push or two away.

Look forward to seeing more!
