The surface interval must be at least 5 minutes for a dive to be considered a repetitive

dive. Otherwise, it is considered a continuation of the same dive. The dive number

will not change and the dive time will continue where it left off (see also section 3.5.2.

“Dive Numbering”).

3.1.4. User Definable Functions and Alarms

The ZOOP has several user definable functions and depth and time related alarms

that you can set according to your personal preference.

The dive computer model (Air/Nitrox) can be set in the MODE- SET- MODEL submode.

The dive alarms can be set under MODE- SET- SET ALARMS, the time and date

settings in MODE-SET-SET TIME, and the units (metric/imperial) as well as personal

adjustments in the MODE- SET- SET ADJUSTMETS submode. Setting of the user

definable functions and alarms are explained in detail in section 4.2. “Set Modes”.

3.2. SAFETY STOPS

Safety stops are widely considered “good diving practice” and are an integral part of

most dive tables. Reasons to perform a safety stop include a reduction in sub clinical

DCI, microbubble reduction, ascent control, and orientation before surfacing.

The ZOOP displays two different types of safety stops: Recommended Safety Stop

and Mandatory Safety Stop.
