I would prefer:

Screen 1:

A. Current Depth
B. Max Depth
C. Run Time

Screen 2:

D. Current Ceiling
E. Current Deco Reqd
F. Total Deco Reqd.

The first screen is similar to the info given by current
dive timers, and so more familiar. The second then gives
all the info on deco, collected together.

The first screen would be much better when keeping an eye
on printed tables/run-times.

I presume that changing from one screen to the other will
be easy/ one handed, ie a shake of the wrist, in the same
way as the Cochrane (sp?) wrist units.
