Re: com ports missing (windows 7)!

Its a shearwater petrel (v1) so uses bluetooth.
There are no ports available to choose - bluetooth or otherwise - when I try to do the import and the computer is in sync mode.
It shows up as a bluetooth device elsewhere

Re: Petrel BT import problems

For anyone else having the same problem after several hours I finally got it to work. I am not quite sure how - but I *think* this is what happened :) When the PC detects the bluetooth device it sets it up with ports etc. All looks and appears fine but nothing works :( When it receives the first con...

Petrel BT import problems

I am trying to get the BT import from my Petrel (V1) to work on a Windows7 machine: a) PC can import dives from Petrel through Shearwater desktop, so I know that Petrel and PC are talking to each other through bluetooth. (yes I know that uses sockets rather than serial) b) PC detects Petrel and crea...

Bluetooth + iOS

I have your DL5 on my PC and on my iPad. I dont take the PC around with me to dive sites so it would be great to get data off my computer directly into the IoS version of DL5. Until now I haven't been able to do that - because the iPAd has no USB connectivity and my Nikek needs USB to sync. But - I ...

Import some data (merge)

Is it possible...or can you add as a further feature...the ability to import some data from a dive computer and merge with other non-computer data for the same dive? What do I mean? Well I am overseas diving right now and don't have a PC with me. Every day I dive my nitek trio logs all the the impor...

Temperature not improted from Nitek Trio (N2ition3)

Hi when I download data ffrom my DiveRite Nitek Trio (which is a rebadged N2ition3) it brings in the date, time depath and profile data.
It doesnt bring in the water temp - despite that being in the computer?
Could this be added to the import - one less thing to type.
Thanks

Re: Bug in download function

turned out to be due to the fact that I was downloading from a brand nwe computer with empty memory; which caused the parser to choke. Jef kindly fixed it up and sent me a new dll which works just fine and will be included in later versions of downloader....just in case anyone else has the same prob...
