"Device discovery error: The Bluetooth adaptor is powered off, power it on before doing discovery." so i think this is a about the driver on Windows. it's currently disable somehow. have you used BLE on this machine before? a couple of things: 1) newer Windows has this thing on the bottom right of the task menu that looks like a chat bubble, where you can quickly turn on/off services like Airplane mode, Wifi, Bluetooth. see if Bluetooth is listed there if not - 2) 2) open the start menu and type "Device manager" - See if a Bluetooth entry is present. - expand it and there should be things like "Bluetooth LE generic attribute service", "BLE Enumerator" ^ if these are missing then a BLE driver has to be installed. This tool can be used to debug device connectivity and BLE services / characteristics etc: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/bluetooth-le-explorer/9n0ztkf1qd98 if the above tool doesn't work then it's a OS level problem. lubomir -- _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list subsurface@subsurface-divelog.org http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
