hi! so far i've had no success to get subsurface on macOS to download dives from my teric.
i've had success with subsurface-mobile on iOS though. version 2.1.3 scanned and found the teric, connected and downloaded with no issues. i've since gone diving again, and upgraded to v2.1.4. and have a few observations: (1) when i touch the "DC" logo to import dives, i get a menu where i can select a DC and/or scan/download. the Connection drop-down shows around 10 LE devices even before i scan. i can select a few DCs, but need to rescan to get the teric to show up in the Connections drop-down. it's not clear to me why i need to tell subsurface that i'm downloading from a teric when it finds and recognizes the LE device as teric. (2) If i've found the teric earlier, there's a "previously used" entry with my teric, but touching it does nothing. this is unexpected. (3) the download dives interface is not very clear and leads to user- induced mistakes. sw: touch "DC image" sw: touch "rescan" sw: Connection: select teric sw: vendor name/dive computer: select shearwater / teric teric: "Wait connect" sw: i touch download teric: "Wait Cmd" teric: "Sending" sw: "Info: model, ...firmware, ... ............ 2m teric: "Sent Dive" sw: show list of dives there's no feedback that the scan found something. when i touch download, it seems to talk to the teric, but there's no update on both the teric or subsurface for over 2 minutes. i actually thought it had gotten lost and aborted several times before i let it run its course to find out that i actually _did_ succeed eventually. with the shearwater sw, i get the following behaviour on the teric: sw: i touch "BT Scan" sw: Scanning teric: "Wait Connect" sw: Immediately shows the teric sw: i touch the teric entry teric: "Wait Cmnd\n3:00" sw: show menu to download/disconnect sw: i touch "download dives" teric: "Sending list" teric: "Sent list" sw: shows list of dives. sw: i touch download dives sw: loading 1/4, transfer in progress teric: "Sending" teric: "Sent Dive\n3:00" sw: loading 2/4, transfer in progress teric: "Sending" teric: "Sent Dive\n3:00" sw: loading 3/4, transfer in progress teric: "Sending" teric: "Sent Dive\n9:59" sw: loading 4/4, transfer in progress teric: "Sending" teric: "Sent Dive\n9:59" sw: shows menu the shearwater sw is more intuitive to use, TBH, feels faster, and gives much better feedback on what's happening. And it does seem to use different commands. (4) when the new dives are imported, and i touch download again, it immediately returned with "no new dives found", so that works well. teric: "Wait Cmd" teric: "Sending" teric: "Sent List" (5) from the dive download screen: when i touch "Rescan" and then select the teric in the "Connection" menu, but don't select vendor/model and touch "Download", subsurface-mobile crashes. (6) not teric specific: subsurface-mobile crashes on merge conflicts. i downloaded the same dives on my iPhone and my iPad. i used "sync manually with cloud" on the iPhone. after that i did the same on the iPad. the iPad mentioned something like "merging local dives with cloud" and immediately afterwards crashed. on restart, the list is identical to the cloud and a manual resync works successfully. -- Thomas 'Mike' Michlmayr | ignorami: n: The BOFH art of folding problem <[email protected]> | lusers into representational shapes. _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
