New firmware 2.21 stable available for the Mk.2/2N

[heinrichsweikamp]

Hello,

Today, we released the 2.21 stable for the Mk.2/2N!

Updating is very easy if you have 1.90 or later (e.g. all 2N users!) and using Windows.
1. Get new bootloader v2: http://www.heinrichsweikamp.com/en/ostc_2n/
2. Follow the step-by-step instructions: http://www.heinrichsweikamp.com/en/ostc ... _firmware/

New since 2.20:
- pSCR Support. ppO2 for passive scr can be displayed. The counterlung ratio and the O2-Drop must be configured in CF62 and CF63
- Bugfix: Decolist showed a gas change stop where no gas change was configured to

New since 2.01:
- a lot of small bugfixes and improvements
- quicker screen refresh and calculations (e.g. in the Deco Planer)
- new features like the Cave divers consumption display and alarm (CF59)

Important: This update does not reset your CF values. When updating from 2.01 you'll need to reset CF56,57,59 and CF60 manually. The OSTC will display a permanent warning for all CF that should be checked by the user (Until they are checked). For those not messing around with the CF settings: Menu -> Reset Menu -> Reset all will reset all CF to the default values.


Hallo,

Heute haben wir die Version 2.21stable für den OSTC Mk.2/2N veröffentlicht!

Das Updaten auf die neue Version ist sehr einfach, wenn bereits 1.90 oder später installiert ist (z.B. für alle OSTC 2N Benutzer) und Windows verwendet wird.

1. Neuen bootloader v2 herunterladen: http://www.heinrichsweikamp.com/de/ostc_2n/
2. Die einfache Schritt-für-Schritt Anleitung befolgen: http://www.heinrichsweikamp.com/de/ostc ... _firmware/

Neu zur 2.20:
- pSCR Unterstützung. Der OSTC berechnet nun auch für passive SCR den ppO2 im loop. Das Gegenlungenverhältnis und der O2-Drop müssen dafür in CF62 und CF63 eingestellt werden
- Bugfix: Die Decoliste zeigte einen Gaswechselstop an, wo keiner hätte sein sollen

Neu zur 2.01:
- viele kleine Verbesserungen und Bugfixes
- schnellerer Bildaufbau und schnellere Berechnungen (z.B. im Decoplaner)
- Neue Funktionen wie das Berechnen des Bailouts für Höhlentauchtänge (CF59)

Wichtig: Dieses Update setzt Eure CF-Werte nicht automatisch zurück (Dies auf vielfachen Wunsch der Nutzer dieses Forums). Wer also von 2.01 auf die 2.20 aktualisiert muss die CF56,57,59 und CF60 manuell zurücksetzen. Der OSTC zeigt daher nach dem Update eine Warnung für diese CF an, solange sie noch nicht zurückgesetzt wurden. Wer an den CF nichts verstellt hat oder möchte: Menu -> Reset Menu -> Reset all setzt alle CF auf die Grundwerte zurück.


Viele Grüße/Best Regards,
Matthias

Hi all,

Just did the FW update. It really is a breeze if you RTFM.

Hallo alle,

Habe soeben die FW auf den neusten Stand gebracht. Einfacher gehts nicht so lange man der Anleitung folgt.

[scubatinoo]

What's about a "Bootloader" for Mac-Users? I'm doing updates now using JDiveLog and it works so far... But i don't know how fast they are if the firmware of OSTC changes in a way, that it doesn't work with JDiveLog anymore... So it would be nice to have an independent way to update the OSTC on a Mac...

Added: Did the new firmware update very smooth with JDiveLog on my Mac. Everthings seems to work quite well.

[Jean-François]

Awesome. Looking forward to test it.

And as scubatinoo said, a bootloader for Mac would be great. It's so simple to update the OSTC with windows' bootloader that I want it for my Mac too.

[Bardass]

Why a bootloader for Mac ?
It's really simple to upgrade firmware with Jdivelog

[Solodiver]

Thx a lot for not resetting date and time this time!

Does this mean we are running out auf CF now? CF63 is the last one in the CFII Set, isn't it?

Thx,
Jan

@Jan: My date and time was resetted as within former versions...!?

mine too

[scubatinoo]

Mine kept time and date. But maybe this has something to do because i'm updating with JDiveLog?

[scubatinoo]

I'm confused about the logbook... Divenumbers in the detail page of a dive are now the same as the number in the logbook overview... Last time i used to look into the OSTC Logbook it was IMHO the opposite: Latest dive in logbook overview had number 1 but the dive number on the detail page was the actual number of dives done with OSTC (without setting any CF)... Is it true?

And something else: Changing to the second page of the logbook overview has quite a delay... like it was before the last firmware update... Switching back to the first page works fast!

[Solodiver]

My logbook numbers are as usual, wrong (ordered from 01...XX) in the Overview and correct in the Detailview.

There might be a (new) bug in the logbook displaying the graph, but I consider this a more general topic as I set a very low sampling rate. Discussion is in the "Amount of logbook entries" thread:

My date and time is for sure still correct, I did the update using JDiveLog (as usual).

I don't care about the numbers in the Overview, as longs as the
latest dive is on top... Did you set a logbook offset in CF,
because I did not.

My graph looks like before, so no problem there on my OSTC so far.

[tiefunten]

So the time is only resetted when updating with the bootloader and does not happen when using Jdivelog....

@Solodiver: Interesting profile Why are you jumping from one extreme CF to the opposite extreme? 3s sampling rate vs. 120s sampling rate is a rather big step from my point of view.

I did some simulation dives with the new stable and none of the reported bugs from 2.2 were visible!

[swissdiving]

I can confirm that the time was reset when updating with Bootloader. Though I never got any warnings in relation to CF56,57,59 and CF60. I reset the CF's anyway.

Profiles are showing normal but haven't had the opportunity to dive since the upgrade.

@PeterK
RTFM is obvious. What about: PEBKAC

[PeterK]

@Hansjoerg:

According to the initial posting by HW warnings re CF56,57,59 and CF60 are only shown when updating from FW 2.01 or earlier.


What does "PEBKAC" mean?

[Bardass]

"Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair"

you, in short

[swissdiving]

@PeterK
That explains it. I must have been on 2.01

@Bardass
You got it.
You have to be one to recognize one

Whatever that is.

[PeterK]

Ah, I knew this one as PICNIC: Problem in chair not in computer

[Felini]

Gestern neue Firmware von 2.00 auf 2.21 geladen mit bootloader v2.
Zeit und Datum wurden zurückgesetzt, Battery Information zeigte Tmin:-69,5° (am Nordpol habe ich nich getaucht , habe auch nicht vor), Tmax:30,7° scheint in Ordnung zu sein.

[Rüdiger]

Hallo,

habe letzte Woche die V 2.21 aufgespielt. Lief alles gut. Beim Tauchen hatte der OSTC allerdings ein Problem, er hat ständig zwischen Oberflächen- und Tauchmodus hin und her gewechselt. Nach einer gefühlten halben Stunde Tauchzeit hat er 3' angezeigt und 38 h Entsättigung (ich war beim Eistauchen max. 4 m tief). Beim 2. TG hat er gar nichts mehr gemacht.
Ich habe ihn auf die V 2.10 Beta zurückgesetzt und es hat alles wieder funktioniert.

Grüße
Rüdiger

[swissdiving]

Salut Rüdiger,

Wie hoch über Meer ward ihr?

[PeterK]

Unfortunately the ice is gone now. Nevertheless we went diving today. Nice and easy dive, the OSTC is running on FW 2.21. No issues whatsover. I'm happy.

[Rüdiger]

Hallo Hansjoerg,

die beiden Eistauchgänge waren auf knapp 1600 m (vor einem Jahr hat er da mit einer älteren Version tadellos funktioniert), der letzte TG mit der Version 2.10 war auf 550 m.

Grüße
Rüdiger
