Hi,

As I changed the HDD from my MBP to a SSD, I re-install everything (to start with a clean configuration).

Hence I needed to setup the OSTC communication again, and went again trough some hassle :(

So I wrote down all steps I did, hoping it will help me in the future. Here are all those steps ...

It scares me as well!
FYI, mine was in "Please wait" mode for over 9 minutes!!!

In fact, I paid attention not to ascend and stayed in a +/- 1m depth-frame.
For the second point, I had an Uwatec Air X previously and, from what I remember, it showed increasing values once the deco was over, until the maximum NDL.

Thanks for your reply, Peter.

Hi All,

I'm new with using the Mk2 (v.1.90).

I did a dive yesterday and was waiting to have some deco - I was curious how it will display.
When it shows that I will have 0' to wait before having some deco, actually it tooks 5' before having 1'/3m displayed.
Then I started to ascend and after a few ...

Thanks for the link, Reiner.

I already have the latest JDiveLog version, so looks like it is still not resolved...

In the JDiveLog OSTC settings, the first line is about the Serial Number.
This number is 1858 while my computer is the 1865 (displayed on the main screen). I'm confused - Which one is the correct one and how to change the wrong one?

Thanks,
Kristian

YEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHEEEEEEEHHHH :):):)

kobus, you saved my life! I had the correct linrxtxSerial.jnilib but I was not in the _uucp group ;)

So now, I have two more questions:
1) Is there a way to avoid changing the divecomputer setting each time I open JDiveLog?
2) In the JDiveLog OSTC ...

[quote=jostein]
The "Protocol" settings for the OSTC must not be in "Auto" - that doesn't work. I choose "1.80-x"

Thanks jostein,
That's the setting I tried - along the others...

I think you are right, the solution should sit in front of me but can't see it

Hi Oliver,

As I still have issues to connect my OSTC, could you please help me understand what do you mean by "on the main screen" vs. "standby mode"?

Thanks,
Kristian

Sorry to bother again with the same topic, but I'm still not able to make it working :(:(

No one had the same JDiveLog error message once?

Could not load data - Com port already in use

Thanks for helping,
Kristian

I installed and tried Mac Dive and it worked directly. I was able to download the dives :)
Unfortunately, it is not possible to update the OSTC FW with this SW :(

So, this means that the com port is working, so why JDiveLog always send an error message Could not load data - Com port already in use ...

Pfff... since JDiveLog is not working for me - I'm still unable to have my OSTC communicating to it - I was hoping that Mac Dive may update the firmware!

So at least I can upload my dives today :)
And I need to continue my battle to make it working with JDiveLog for the FW :(

Thanks all for your ...

And what about upgrading the FW - Is that possible?

Thanks,
Kristian

I have 2 files in my /Library/Java/Extensions folder:

1) librxtxSerial.jnilib - 237.5kb
2) RXTXcomm.jar - 114.6kb

Anyone would be able to provide me both files they use in a working configuration under 10.6.7 (my email is "decouverte(at)yahoo(dot)com")?
Is there any other files I need for the RXTX ...

OMG! Honestly I don't know what to do to make it work :(:(:(

Is there any Mac "guru" around, it would be helpful...

Matthias, maybe someone from your team, or yourself?

I still have:

[quote=nakatomi]
Did you make sure the OSTC was turned on (on the main screen) before downloading dives? You need to wake it up, otherwise you will get comm errors in jdivelog.

Nakatomi, Jean-François,
What do you mean by turned it on, on the main screen? Is it the ...

I tried to disable the 64bits support, but both 64 and 32bits moves to disable, I was not able to uncheck only the 64bits support :(

But honestly, I understand that I have to put my hands into some work, but why is it that hard? I just use a normal MacBook Pro with a normal JDiveLog and a brand new ...

Wow, thanks again.

So now I believe I installed the correct librxtxSerial.jnilib in /Library/Java/Extensions.
I also have the RXTXcomm.jar - the one from rxtx.qbang.org - in the same folder.

Then I plugged the OSTC, switched it on and loaded JDiveLog. Then in JDiveLog, Settings > Divecomputer ...

Thanks hexxon

With your topic, I remarked that, as I have a Core 2 duo processor - which means a x64 chip, the RXTX driver I tried to use is only working with x32.
I'm struggling to find the right one now

Hi All,

I just received my new Mk2 last Friday :) It runs with the FW 1.80.

After a few hours of fights to connect it with my Mac, I don't know what to do to make it recognized :(

I have a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard with JDiveLog already installed - I was not asked to choose for the RXTX ...
