hey,

So I'm a little confused as to how the no fly time and desaturation time work. My no fly time is usually about 12 hours after a couple of dives but the desaturation time can be upwards of 24 hours. Can someone explain to me what the correlation between the two is and why they can be so different.

Also, the computer shows some mountains and that I can't go past level 4. But supposedly I am now able to fly. Which is higher than the 4000m. Confused! Is there any way to turn this off because it is a pointless feature for me.

Thanks.
 
flying is not higher than 4000m, at least in terms of cabin pressure. Typical cabin pressures are around 2000m equivalent elevation for reference.

It is highly unlikely you can't turn it off as it is built into the algorithms, and this is also unfortunately one of the compromises with recreational computers
