Cobalt Guide: Simulating a Dive

Simulating a dive is done by pressing the DOWN button to descend 5 feet (or 2 meters if depth preference is set to meters) for each button press. Pressing SELECT will then increment the dive time by one minute.
The display updates through the dive, including showing predicted gas consumption in Surface Cubic Feet (or liters, if liters are selected in the volume preferences).

To exit the simulation and return to the surface at any time press the BACK button. A pop-up menu will appear, giving you the option of saving or not saving the dive. If you select Save, a safe ascent profile will be drawn to the surface, including any decompression stops, deep stops, or safety stops. If any gas switch alerts are set, the gas switches will be automatically made. The dive will be saved in the Sim Dive Log, and you will be returned to the Simulation Menu.
