What is your starting point for using any technical dive planning software?
What is it you need to make repetitive deco dives, or repetitive no-deco dives following dives that require decompression?
What is it you will need to be able to do if you only have one mission-capable computer, or you simply elect not to rely on a computer as any more than a depth gauge and bottom timer?
Key Points to Remember
Your starting point for using any technical dive planning software is having an idea of your planned depth and bottom time, and the gas mixtures you intend to use as your bottom mix and deco gas.
Repetitive dives can greatly complicate dive planning. Either your dive-planning software must allow for this, or you need be using two mission-capable dive computers.
If you only have one mission-capable computer, or you simply elect not to rely on a computer as any more than a depth gauge and bottom timer, you will need to generate dive tables based on your plan and be able to take these tables with you under water.
