BAR GRAPHS
Tissue Loading Bar Graph (TLBG)
The Tissue Loading Bar Graph (Fig. 1a) represents tissue loading
of nitrogen, showing your relative no decompression or decom-
pression status. As your depth and elapsed dive time increase,
segments will add to the Graph, and as you ascend to shallower
depths, the Bar Graph will begin to recede, indicating that
additional no decompression time is allowed for multilevel
diving.
The Tissue Loading Bar Graph monitors 12 different nitrogen
compartments simultaneously and displays the one that is in
control of your dive. It is divided into a No Decompression
(normal) zone, a Caution zone (also No Decompression), and a
Decompression (danger) zone.
While you cannot provide a guarantee against the occurrence of
decompression sickness, you may choose your own personal
zone of caution based upon age, physique, excessive weight,
etc., to reduce the statistical risk.
NOTE: Displays associated with oxygen and the O2
Bar Graph will only appear if FO2 has been set at a
value other than 'Air' (e.g., a numerical value).
