Diving Log 5.0.3 released

Thursday, May 26th, 2011

After five month of development and five beta versions, the final version 5.0.3 is now available (install the update from 5.0.2 to update from any beta 5.0.3). For those of you, who have been downloaded and installed each beta version, there are just a few changes since the last beta. But those updating from version 5.0.2 will get a really big update with tons of new features, which would normally justify a new major version:

This update is a big improvement for technical divers and scuba divers with lots of new data fields including Nitrox, Trimix and Rebreather dives!

Changes from Beta to Final

Wednesday, May 25th, 2011

The final version 5.0.3 will be released shortly and I want to show you the few things which have been added since beta 5. It’s mostly polishing, some minor bug fixes and the German localization (other languages will follow during the next weeks). I’ve updated the Suunto Dive Manager (SDM 4.0 not yet supported!), Oceanlog, Mares Iris/Drak and UDCF import and there is a new import from the Atomic Cobalt logbook software. You can also display now in CCR dives the ppO2 chart from all three O2 sensors (if supported by the O2 monitor):

Display up to three ppO2 Sensor values

Blue is sensor 1, green is sensor 2 and cyan is sensor 3. The yellow line is the setpoint. The dive site dialog has now a 2nd page with some more data:

New profiles and CCR features

Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011

You can now import and manage your CCR dives with Diving Log. Switches from diluent to bailout (including changing the diluent and/or bailout gas) are supported, as well as ppO2 recording from up to three O2 sensors, setpoint, OTU and CNS profile data. Additionally, if supported by the dive computer, deco ceiling, NDL and stop time could be imported and displayed.

Deco ceiling, NDL and stop time

On the screenshot below you can see the ppO2 profile recorded from the O2 monitor, the yellow setpoint line (in the ppO2 profile). After 30 minutes you notice the switch to bailout and at the end another switch of the bailout gas. Switches of the diluent gas are also supported.

OTU and CNS profile

You can enter your rebreather diluent / O2 tank and all bailout tanks within the tank management dialog. Select the CCR option for the diluent and O2 tank and the OC option for the bailout tanks.

Tank Management

CCR profile data is automatically imported from APD (copy/paste), BFT, ProLink, DR5, HS Explorer, Liquivision X1, Poseidon and Shearwater. If you notice any problems or wrong data after the import, please let me know.
