Not entirely sure on this.  I just ignore it because the differential
time interval is actually set too short (this could be different
between the old and new models).  I can swing my arm from below me to
above me without changing my body depth and the thing shows a violation
due to the speed.  Of course, I have long arms...

I forget where I heard this, but someone told me once that it was
programmed with two rates according to depth (something like 60 fpm
below 33 feet, and 30 fpm above) but I have not verified this.  It
really is a moot point.  Make dead slow ascents between all stops,
paying careful attention to the last 20 feet or so before surfacing..
