Workload

After upgrading to the HR Monitor feature,
your Galileo will have additional options
within the WORKLOAD menu. In addition
to RESPIRATION and OFF, you now have
HEART, ALWAYS HIGHEST and ALWAYS
LOWEST.
You can now choose between workload
(WL) estimation based on heart rate
(HEART, default) or based on changes in
the breathing pattern (RESPIRATION).
You can also have Galileo always choose
the highest between the two estimates
(ALWAYS HIGHEST), the lowest between
the two estimates (ALWAYS LOWEST) or
you can turn it OFF completely. If you turn
it OFF, Galileo will behave like an UWATEC
Aladin PRIME dive computer.
If you choose WL = HEART, you must
personalize the algorithm adaptation by
entering your maximum heart rate and your
base heart rate while diving. If you do not
know your maximum heart rate, a good
approximation is given by subtracting your
age (in years) from 220. For instance, a 35-
year old would have a maximum heart rate
of 185 beats per minute. To determine the
base heart rate, use Galileo in its default
setting on a relaxed, unstressed dive,
then look up the average heart rate in the
2
logbook or, better yet, download the dive to
a PC using SmartTRAK, then observe the
heart rate profile during the dive. For the
example shown below, the base heart rate
is approximately 100-110bpm.
If you choose WL = RESPIRATION, Galileo
will observe your breathing pattern during
the first two minutes of each dive, and use
that as a reference. Any increase in breathing
with respect to that initial pattern will be
interpreted as an increase in workload.
If you choose RESPIRATION or OFF, you
can also choose whether you want to keep
the heart rate monitor ON (to display the
heart rate on the screen and to log it in the
memory), or if you prefer to have it OFF.
If WL is set to HEART or ALWAYS
HIGHEST, the computer display will show
HEART+ instead of just HEART. If WL is set
to ALWAYS LOWEST, the computer display
will show HEART- instead of just HEART.
If WL is set to RESPIRATION or OFF and
the heart rate monitor is set to OFF, the
computer display will show HEART OFF.
If WL is set to RESPIRATION or ALWAYS
HIGHEST, the computer display will show the
tank pressure with a + next to the unit (BAR+ or
PSI+). If WL is set to ALWAYS LOWEST, the
computer display will show the tank pressure
with a - next to the unit (BAR- or PSI-).
