technical divers who dive deep or long. As far as _Subsurface_ is concerned,
there are only two types of information that need to be provided:
-- *Describe the cylinders used during the dive* This is performed in the *Equipment tab* of
- the *Info* panel, as xref:cylinder_definitions[described above]. Enter the cylinders one by one,
- specifying the characteristics of the cylinder and the gas composition within each cylinder.
-
-- *Record the times at which switches from one cylinder to another was done:* This is information
- provided by some dive computers (provided the diver indicated these changes to the dive computer
- by pressing specific buttons). If the dive computer does not provide the information, the diver has to
- record these changes using a different method, e.g. writing it on a slate.
-
-- *Record the cylinder changes on the dive profile*: If the latter option
- was followed, the diver needs to indicate the gas change event by right-clicking at the appropriate point
- in time on the *Dive Profile* panel and indicating the cylinder to which the change was made. After
- right-clicking, follow the context menu to "Add gas change" and select the appropriate cylinder from
- those defined during the first step, above (see image below). If the
- *tank bar* button in the toolbar has been activated, the cylinder switches are also indicated in the
- tank bar.
-
-Having performed these tasks, _Subsurface_ indicates the appropriate use of
-cylinders in the dive profile. Below is a multi-cylinder dive, starting off
-with EAN28, then changing cylinders to EAN50 after 26 minutes to perform
-decompression.

-Sidemount diving is just another form of multicylinder diving, often with

-configuration for cave divers, sidemount diving can be performed by

-==== Semi-closed circuit rebreather (SCR) dives

-[icon="images/halcyon_RB80.jpg"]
-[NOTE]
-Passive semi-closed rebreathers (pSCR) comprise a technical advance in
-diving equipment that recirculates the breathing gas that a diver breathes,
-while removing carbon dioxide from the exhaled gas. While a small amount
-(typically a tenth) of the exhaled breathing gas is released into the water,
-a small amount of fresh gas is released from the back gas cylinder
-(typically containing nitrox). A diver, using a single cylinder of
-breathing gas can therefore dive for much longer periods than using a
-recreational open-circuit configuration. With pSCR equipment, a very small
-amount of breathing gas is released every time the breather inhales. With
-active SCR (aSCR) equipment, in contrast, a small amount of breathing gas is
-released continuously from the back cylinder.
-
-To log pSCR dives, no special procedures are required, just the normal steps
-outlined above:
-
-- Select pSCR in the _Dive Mode_ dropdown list on the *Info* panel.
-
-- pSCR diving often involves gas changes, requiring an additional cylinder.
- Define all the appropriate cylinders as described above and indicate the
- cylinder/gas changes as described above in the section on
- xref:S_MulticylinderDives[multicylinder dives].
-
-If a pSCR _Dive Mode_ has been selected, the dive ceiling for pSCR dives is
-adjusted for the oxygen drop across the mouthpiece which often requires
-longer decompression periods. Below is a dive profile of a pSCR dive using
-EAN36 on the back cylinder and oxygen for decompression. Note that this dive
-lasted over two hours.
