So DivePal allows you to specify your own gradient factors for dive planning/playing. But it takes it one step further where you can specify the M values for each compartment of the Buhlmann ZH-L16 model (see screen shot below; GF 100/100). To validate this functionality I tried to replicate a GF 85/85 by adjusting the Nitrogen PM0) to 85%.
(PM0)-1bar)*0.85+1bar =
Expecting a shift in the M line with no change in slope ie 85/85, I actually get something like 100/85! I'm not sure if I am missing a step. One thing I did notice is that for the 1st compartment, the PM0 defaults to 3.224 when it should be 3.24 or if using 1b; 2.96 but this number can be easily corrected by the user. Any help would be appreciated.
