(marked MORE). The gas summary table
stays on the display for a maximum of
12 seconds, after which Galileo reverts to
the regular computer display. Pressing the
middle button while the gas summary table
is displayed brings up the deco summary
table, explained in the next section.

3.7.3 Deco summary table

Galileo shows you the predictive multi
gas decompression calculation on the
main computer screen. However, in the
background it is also calculating what the
decompression would be if you were to
fi nish the dive with just the gas mixture
that you are currently breathing from. If you
are diving with an MB level higher than L0,
Galileo also computes both the predictive
multi gas decompression calculation and
the current gas only calculation for L0. All
these calculations are shown at once in the
deco summary table.
During the dive, from the gas summary
table, press the middle button to access
the deco summary table. On the top row,
with label PMG L5 (or whichever MB level
is active) you see the predictive multi gas
decompression calculation at the active
MB level. This is the same as on the main
computer screen. Underneath it, with label
1G L5 (or whichever MB level is active) you
see the decompression calculation for the
active MB level if you were to fi nish the
dive with the gas mixture you are currently
breathing. Next is the row with label PMG
L0, showing the predictive multi gas
decompression calculation for L0 (this is
what you see in the MORE sequence also),
followed by row 1G L0, showing the single
gas decompression calculation at L0 for
the gas you are currently breathing from.
The fi rst two rows described here do not
appear if Galileo is set to L0.
3. Diving with Galileo
The deco summary table stays on the
display for a maximum of 12 seconds, after
which Galileo reverts to the regular computer
display. Pressing the middle button while
the deco summary table is displayed brings
up the dive profi le, as described in section
3.4.4. In the case of dives with more than one
mixture, Galileo adds a solid line indicating
the MOD for the various gas mixtures. The
vertical line then represents the predicted
time and depth of the switch.
3.7.4 Switching gas mixture during
the dive
During the ascent phase, when you reach a
depth corresponding to the MOD of T2 or
TD, Galileo will suggest that you perform the
switch. An audible sequence goes off, and
the message SWITCH TO GAS T2 (or TD)
appears on the display. Simultaneously, the
labels of the left and middle buttons change
to SAVE and >>, respectively. You have 30
seconds to respond to this message, else
Galileo will consider that tank T2 (or TD)
never existed and adapts the decompression
schedule accordingly. You can:
- Press or press and hold SAVE to
confi rm the gas switch.
- Press or press and hold >> to choose
the next gas in sequence, after which
you would still have to press or press
and hold SAVE to confi rm the switch.
- Press and hold the right button to
terminate the gas switch procedure
without carrying out any switch.
