Diving Log - Supportforum

Hi, I'm seriously considering purchasing a Suunto EON or EON Steel dive computer and have a question. Is it possible to import new dives to Diving Log on my iPad Pro and iPhone 6s from the EON/EON Steel via Bluetooth? I will be traveling for four months including liveaboard and shore diving and will...

I think it is maybe Windows Update which is installing the wrong driver over and over again. If you check Windows Update and see the wrong driver offered again, right click this update and hide it, so it doesn't get installed again. If you're on Windows 10, it is more difficult to prevent automatic...

It appears you are correct and the driver had reverted to the old prolific (fake) one as per this previous post which was sorted out for me by tnt (gawd bless im :D ) https://www.divinglog.de/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2418 Reinstalled the correct driver and all is now good to go with the correct...

What has changed? It sounds as it has worked before, so something must have changed. Please note, this is not a Diving Log problem. Diving Log does not create COM ports and does not contain drivers. Diving Log can only use the existing COM ports. COM ports are created by drivers, so I guess the dri...

Trying to download recent dives fron Suunto Vyper to DL5 via Suunto downloader and Universal Downloader with the same issue. I am only given the option of COMPort1. Both downloaders return COMPort not found and fail to download. This is very frustrating as it seems to be an ongoing intermittent prob...

The usb-serial chip is in the pc interface, not your brand new PC. If the cable worked fine before on an older PC, then most likely you had an older driver installed. And when moving to a new system, you installed the latest version, which happens to have that counterfeit check added. Note that the...

The exlamation mark icon indicates the driver failed to load. That's why COM5 doesn't show up. You might be affected by the counterfeit chip detection that Prolific added to their driver. If that's the case, you'll need to find an old driver: http://wp.brodzinski.net/hardware/fake-pl2303-how-to-ins...

Diving Log does not contain any drivers, but when it shows up in device manager, it will show up in Diving Log for sure. Make sure the "Bluetooth only" check box is not checked. Bluetooth only is not checked but still refusing to download! Whilst device manager is picking up that the Suun...

When I attach the Suunto cable to a usb port on my PC with Device Manager open it comes up as "Prolific USB-to-Serial Comm Port (COM5)". However in Divelog both the Suunto downloader and the generic downloader COM5 is not an option for selection. Only Com1 is available. Worked fine on my o...

I assume so as I did a fresh install of the programme.

I have a new personal computer which is failing to download dives from my Suunto Vyper. My old PC had no problems. The 'Downloader' and the 'Suunto' downloader, although set to download by default from Port COM1 would search and eventually find the dive computer and download successfully. This new P...

Cheers Greg.
Much appreciated. I will give it a good look later. Off on a liveaboard next week and in this ever increasing world of weight limits for air travel it is becoming tedious to carry two huge logbook folders with us

Actually I have another question on the same theme. I cannot see a way to open a second logbook on the ipad app. Is it possible to have two logbooks on the same ipad? If so how do I achieve this? If it isn't possible can I load my ipad app to a second ipad to sync the other logbook on that without h...

Sorted. Thank you very much.
