Hello,
I just bought a new Suunto D4i. Used it for the first time on my nitrox/deep speciality courses last week.
For some odd reason however, it would not allow me to plan dives deeper than 36.0 meters at 1.4 pO2/EAN 28. This is even though in theory, the 1.4 limit is reached at 40 meters on EAN 28. I had to re-adust the pO2 to 1.5 so that alarms don't start going off beyond 36.0 meters.
Is this just conservative accounting for a possible margin of error or is there some other reason?
Many thanks in advance.
