5 Product Activation In order to use full functionality of the Planner it must be activated. You can run the planner in trial mode without activation but dive depth and time are limited in the trial version to 140 FSW/42 MSW and 20 minutes. To activate the planner, you must do the following: 1. Purchase a Product Key 2. Enter (Copy/Paste) the Product Key into the product key field on the activation screen 3. Enter your preferred address (note we will only use your address to inform you of product issues and major upgrades) 3. Press Activate Product You only have to do this once. If you have problems, contact support@freephasedive.com

Oxygen is selected in the decompression gas window and is used on all dives. The green + icon adds a row to the dive plan. Select a row, press + and a new row is added below the current row.

6 Dive Planning Dive planning is controlled through the Dive Plan pallet on the main screen. You have the option to use the dive wizard to guide you through a single dive or be more specific using the pallet. In this example we are planning a dive for 180 FSW for 20 minutes in TX 16/40. Oxygen is selected in the decompression gas window and is used on all dives. The green + icon adds a row to the dive plan. Select a row, press + and a new row is added below the current row. The red - icon deletes the current row. Dive phases can be selected from the drop down box. There are three phases: Dive, Deco, and Surface. A dive segment is the time spent at a planned depth, for a specified quantity of time, breathing a specific gas. The dive gas can be selected from a list of favorite gasses (added in preferences) or can be typed in. Gasses are specified as O2/He. Entering 10/60 is a trimix with 10% Oxygen and 60%v Helium. If you omit the Helium component the gas is considered Nitrox. The value 50 would be treated as EAN would be EAN 21 (or Air). The combination of Oxygen and Helium cannot be greater than 100%. Time is specified in minutes.

To specify the end of a dive add a Surface segment. The time is your surface interval. If you choose to breathe a gas other than air at the surface you may specify it.

7 To specify the end of a dive add a Surface segment. The time is your surface interval. If you choose to breathe a gas other than air at the surface you may specify it. A sequence of two dives is illustrated here. First dive is to 180 FSW for 20 minutes on 16/40. Following a 3 hour (180 minute) surface interval another dive to 130 FSW on 26/17 is planned. Deco gas is 100% Oxygen on both dives since it was selected in the example above on the global deco gas pallet. It is possible to specify a decompression gas be used only on one dive. In this example 100% Oxygen is used on both dives (since it was selected in the first example on the global deco gas pallet). We have also specified EAN 50 be used at 70 FSW on the first dive. When you manually insert a deco gas into the plan currently the time is ignored. The wait time specified in preferences is used. This planner checks for problematic gas switches and warns you. The gas switch from TX 16/40 to EAN 50 is an isobaric switch and you will see the following warning. In the dive notes section of the screen: Isobaric counterdiffusion warning on the gas switch from Tx 16/40 to EAN 50 at depth 70 fsw (ppn2 from 1.37 to 1.56, pphe from 1.25 to 0.00). To run the plan, press the PLAN button on the right hand side of the main window.

To see the Dive 1 plan set the dive to 1.

8 The model (RGBM/Bühlmann) and mode (OC/CCR). All dives are displayed on the same screen and controlled with the Dive switch. To see the Dive 1 plan set the dive to 1. To select Dive 2 press the up or down arrow next to the dive number box. Other commonly used parameters can be specified here as well including whether or not you are generating a CCR bail out plan and the bail out gas. Here are the two dive plans for the current example:

9 Preferences

Preferences include various global dive parameters and favorite gasses. Most are self explanatory. RGBM conservatism ranges from -2 to +2 and match the levels in the Liquivision Xeo dive computer.

10 Preferences include various global dive parameters and favorite gasses. Most are self explanatory. RGBM conservatism ranges from -2 to +2 and match the levels in the Liquivision Xeo dive computer. The -2 level is the most aggressive and mirrors the NAUI RGBM tables. Each additional level of conservatism adds roughly 3-5 minutes of additional TTS but this really depends on the gasses selected and dive time. RGBM uses M-Values for the dissolved gas phase calculations. The current version of the planner allows you to switch between the ZHL-16B and ZHL-16C values. Gasses can appear in the dive plan pallet, the global decompression gas pallet, or both depending on the Usage selection. Switch depth is used when a gas is specified as a decompression gas. If you enter EAN 80 with a switch depth of 30 FSW it will be inserted into the plan at 30 FSW when it is selected in the global decompression gas pallet. A fixed wait time can be specified. If you want to spend a minimum of 5 minutes at the 70 FSW stop on EAN 50 set the wait time to 5 minutes. Note that all time values are in minutes. If you specify a quantity of gas (either cubic feet or cubic liters) a warning will be generated on profiles where you do not have enough gas to safely complete either decompression or bail out/decompression. Tables Open circuit decompression tables and CCR bail out tables can be generated. Square profiles only. Basic table profiles are specified on the table screen. The decompression gasses selected on the global decompression gas pallet (main screen) are used for table generation.
