Import new dives from a Uemis Zurich
|
||||||
|
------------------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Things are very similar when downloading dives from a Uemis Zurich
|
||||||
|
divecomputer (which certainly is one of the ones that DO recharge when
|
||||||
|
connected to the USB port). The main difference is that you don't enter a
|
||||||
|
device name, but instead the location where the UEMISSDA file system is
|
||||||
|
mounted once you connect the divecomputer.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
On Windows this is a drive letter (often 'E:' or 'F:'), on a Mac this is
|
||||||
|
'/Volumes/UEMISSDA' and on Linux systems this differs depending on the
|
||||||
|
distribution that you use. On Fedora it usually is
|
||||||
|
'/var/run/media/<your_username>/UEMISSDA'.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
So once you have selected this as device name you can download the dives
|
||||||
|
from the Uemis Zurich. One current issue is that you cannot download more
|
||||||
|
than about 40-50 dives without running out of memory on the SDA. This will
|
||||||
|
usually only happen the very first time you download dives from the Uemis
|
||||||
|
Zurich - normally when downloading at the end of a day or even after a
|
||||||
|
dive trip, the capacity is sufficient. If Subsurface displays and error
|
||||||
|
that the divecomputer ran out of space the solution is straight forward.
|
||||||
|
Disconnect the SDA, turn it off and on again, and reconnect it. You can
|
||||||
|
now start a new download session and it will continue where it stopped the
|
||||||
|
last time you tried. You may have to do this more than once, depending on
|
||||||
|
how many dives you have stored on your divecomputer.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At this point Subsurface doesn't download all the information that is
|
||||||
|
stored on the SDA. Information about dive spots, buddies, and equipment is
|
||||||
|
not yet downloaded.
