There are no known issues with this 3.16, so update to 3.16 and I'm sure it will work fine with your 2C then.

Using Subsurface to update BLE-only OSTC
The newer OSTC+ (2026 and later) and OSTC Nano models require a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)-compatible updater to update the firmware. While the OSTConf iOS app or the latest HWOS Config for Android (to be released shortly) can perform this task on your mobile device, the old OSTC Companion is unable ...

Re: comparison 2, nano or +?
The battery compartment in the OSTC+ and the USB port in the OSTC nano are watertight. This is fine for a small leak or in freshwater, but if you dive a week-long liveaboard with a leaking battery cap or missing USB cap, both units will suffer damage.

Re: comparison 2, nano or +?
Hi,
I have our comparison sheet attached here. If you don't mind the slightly smaller display, the OSTC nano is very popular right now. Especially for CCR divers (as a backup with fixed setpoints).

We have this in the code already: https://code.heinrichsweikamp.com/publi ... 73180fde1d
It wasn't added to the latest release because we have not tested it in detail yet (Tests with the logbook software/Apps).

Von welcher Version bist Du denn gekommen? Stelle zudem noch den Batterietyp auf T3 (Reset menü). T0 stimmt für den OSTC cR nicht.
