Abstract
In a divers' information display device, a plurality of display modes or the manner of switching features has been improved in order to thus improve the display ability of the device. The divers' information display device has simplified switching of indications and is user-friendly. Specifically, a time mode is changed to a log mode by performing a manipulation, and to a plan and surface mode by performing another manipulation. In the plan and surface mode , an amount of intracorporeal nitrogen, a nitrogen discharge completion time, a depth-of-water rank, and a non-decompression diving enabled time are indicated. After plunging into water is acknowledged, any of the time mode , plan and surface mode , and log mode is automatically changed to a dive mode . After the dive mode is designated, if a diver ascends, the dive mode is automatically changed to the plan and surface mode . Even when a diver ascends, the diver need not manipulate any external manipulation member but can plan a diving schedule immediately.
