Any way to have some unts metric and some imperial?

Just got a transmitter pod for my Suunto Eon Core so I'm traking pressure and SAC for the first time. Being a Canadian we tend to use US equipment so most SPGs sold here us PSI, but most (or at least I) use metres for depth and degrees celcius for teperature.

I've got my Eon core setup ths way so it matches my SPG, but can't see how (or if) I can do this in Mac-Dive for the iphone.

Any way to do it? Thanks

I have thus far neglected to bring this option over from macOS, but I will look in to it when I get back home.

So on macOS, the temperature is in C but depth is feet and pressure is PSI. That's what I would look at bringing over.

Alternatively, I could just consider adding separate preferences for distance, pressure and temperature. I've tended to avoid wanting to do that, but perhaps it's easier and more flexible. It would just take a little more time for me to implement that as it's a bit more work.

Hi Nick,

For me, the most important ones are Depth in Metres and Pressure in PSI - and to go with pressure Tank size in Cubic Feet. I have no idea how many litres the 117 CF steel tank I used this weekend is.

Thanks.

Sure.

I started working on this last night, I have it mostly working on iOS, so you can just pick what you want for the three main units of measure (depth, pressure, temperature). This is more flexible and allows bespoke configurations such as you are after.

Thanks so much Nick. Looking forward to the release!

No problem. Feel free to email me if you want to try out the beta version on TestFlight and help make sure it’s all correct.
