DECOMPRESSION DIVE MODE
The Veo 100Nx is designed to help you by providing a repre-
sentation of how close you are to entering decompression.
Decompression Dive Mode activates when theoretical No
Decompression time/depth limits are exceeded.
Upon entering Decompression Mode, the Mode icon will change
from No Deco to Deco (Fig. 35).
 The UP Arrow and Deco Bar will flash if you are greater than
10 FT (3 M) deeper than the Required Stop Depth.
 Once you are within 10 FT (3 M) of, and below, the re-
quired Stop Depth, both Arrows and the Bar appear solid.
Total Ascent Time
Total Ascent Time (Fig. 36a) includes Stop Times required at all
required decompression ceilings and vertical Ascent Time
calculated at 60 FPM (18 MPM) for depths deeper than 60 FT
(18 M), and 30 FPM (9 MPM) per minute for depths of 60 FT
(18 M) and shallower.
Managing Decompression Stops
To fulfill your decompression obligation, you should make a safe
controlled ascent to a depth slightly deeper than, or equal to, the
Required Ceiling Stop Depth indicated (Fig. 36b) and decom-
press for the Stop Time indicated (Fig. 36c).
