3.10 Decompression dives

If you exceed the no-decompression limit on a dive, Suunto EON
Steel provides the decompression information required for ascent.
Ascent information is always presented with two values:
ceiling: depth that you should not go above
asc. time: optimum ascent time in minutes to surface with given
gases
WARNING: NEVER ASCEND ABOVE THE CEILING! You must not
ascend above the ceiling during your decompression. In order to
avoid doing so by accident, you should stay somewhat below the
ceiling.
On a decompression dive, there could be three kinds of stops:
Safety stop
Deep stop
Decompression stop
You can turn deep stops on or off under Dive settings / Parameters.
In addition, you can adjust the safety stop time to be 3, 4 or 5
minutes.
The illustration below presents how decompression is displayed on
Suunto EON Steel. When you ascend close to the ceiling depth and
enter the deco window area, two arrows appear in front of the
ceiling number.
