+=== Planning CCR dives
+
+To plan a dive using a closed circuit rebreather, select the _CCR_ option in
+the dropdown list, circled in blue in the image below.
+
+*Available gases*: In the _Available gases_ table, enter the cylinder information for the
+diluent cylinder and for any bail-out cylinders. Do NOT enter the information for the oxygen
+cylinder since it is implied when the _CCR_ dropdown selection is made.
+
+*Entering setpoints*: Specify a default setpoint in the Preferences tab, by selecting _File -> Preferences -> Graph_ from the main menu. All user-entered segments in the _Dive planner points_ table
+use the default setpoint value. Then, different setpoints can be specified for dive segments
+in the _Dive planner points_ table. A zero setpoint
+means the diver bails out to open circuit mode for that segment. The decompression is always calculated
+using the setpoint of the last manually entered segment. So, to plan a bail out ascent for a
+CCR dive, add a one-minute dive segment to the end with a setpoint value of 0. The decompression
+algorithm does not switch deco-gases automatically while in CCR mode (i.e. when a positive setpoint is specified) but, of course, this is calculated for bail out ascents.
+
+The dive profile for a CCR dive may look something like the image below.
+
+image::images/Planner_CCR1_f20.jpg["FIGURE: Planning a CCR dive: setup", align="center"]
+
+Note that, in the _Dive plan details_, the gas consumption for a CCR segment
+is not calculated, so gas consumptions of 0 litres are the norm.
+
+=== Planning pSCR dives
+
+To plan a dive using a passive semi-closed rebreather (pSCR), select _pSCR_ rather than
+_Open circuit_ in the dropdown list.
+The parameters of the pSCR diver can be set by selecting _File -> Preferences -> Graph_
+from the main menu, where the gas consumption calculation takes into account the pSCR dump
+ratio (default 10:1) as well as the metabolism rate. The calculation also takes the oxygen drop
+accross the mouthpiece of the rebreather into account. If the
+pO~2~ drops below what is considered a save value, a warning apears in the _Dive plan
+details_. A typical pSCR configuration is with a single cylinder and one or more bail-out
+cylinders. Therefore the setup of the _Available gases_ and the _Dive planner points_ tables
+are very similar to that of a CCR dive plan, described above. However, no oxygen setpoints
+are specified for pSCR dives. Below is a dive plan for a pSCR dive. The dive is comparable
+to that of the CCR dive above, but note the longer ascent duration due to the lower oxygen
+in the loop due to the oxygen drop accross the mouthpiece of the pSCR equipment.
