I apologize for not having actually loaded the

to manually start the Dropbox sync, after having created the mentioned
directory. If you open my Dropbox folder right now you are going to find it
as expected.

In the same folder you will also find the subdirectory Smarttec_import ,
with the log file.

No problem. I have them now.

I have not hitherto considered the chance of installing the Windows version
of subsurface on the WXP VM .  I thought it might have been be a good
suggestion, just in order to try to get the memory dump. It is  a bit
funny, since I have begun to look for linux dive log software mainly in
order to get rid of the WXP virtual machine ...

I have also tried this possible solution. Subsurface seems to be flawlessly installed, but it does not work. As I try to launch it I only get an error pop-up saying : "The procedure entry-point qsort_s could not be located in the dynamic link library msvcrt.dll" . This is not surprising since, in the subsurface web site, WXP is not mentioned in the list of the subsurface
supported Microsoft operating systems.

That's probably a subsurface issue on Windows XP. As a workaround, you can download the memory dump using libdivecomputer's command-line tool. You can get it here:

http://libdivecomputer.org/builds/stable/windows/dctool.exe

Execute with these options:

dctool.exe -v -l smart.log -f smart dump -o smart.bin


What I would like to confirm with this test is very simple: Since you are able to download your smarttec with smarttrak, we know that IrDA is working fine on this system. That allows us to check whether the problem is located. If downloading with libdivecomputer works on this system, then the failure on linux is an IrDA related issue, if it fails then it's in libdivecomputer.

As far as the reasons for not being able to connect the SmartTec to the
linux ( Ubuntu trusty ) IR interface, I think it may be related to the fact that, even with the SmartTrak program running on the WXP VM, the SmartTec
takes much more time than the Galileo for the download, in spite of the
fact that the amount of data sent by the former is much smaller than that
sent by the latter. This means that the transmission data rate of the
SmartTec is much lower.

For the smarttec, we don't even get a chance to download any data. The IrDA device was discovered successfully, but connecting to the device failed:

INFO: Discover: address=f0e03201, name=Aladin Smart Tec, charset=00, hints=8000
INFO: Connect: address=f0e03201, lsap=1
ERROR: Connection reset by peer (104) [in irda.c:369 (dc_irda_connect_lsap)] ERROR: Failed to connect the device. [in uwatec_smart.c:188 (uwatec_smart_device_open)]

This might indeed indicate a problem with the IrDA.
