With a wrist dive computer, a separate submersible pressure gauge (SPG) and compass are still required. These may or may not be mounted together in a console. With a console mounted dive computer, the computer will be mounted in an instrument console, with or without other instruments, depending on the divers gear and preferences. Dive computer consoles typically have mating compasses available that can be attached to the console. Many dive computers can simply be inserted into the depth gauge pocket in a standard instrument console.
Nitrox dive computers typically can be used for either air or Nitrox mixtures up to 40% or richer. By programming the Nitrox mix into the dive computer, decompression limits are automatically adjusted for the breathing gas being used. Most newer dive computers are Nitrox programmable.
