Done! Quick and easy. Thanks.

Note that some things reset back to default, for example, safety stop (off and depths), alternate GF (off) and perhaps others.

I've noticed the same. Thanks for update and fast respond.

New features like the Ceiling display

Can someone please explain me how this feature can be used?

I was doing a sportsdive these days with some light deco at 6m and 3m... While ascending i was playing around with the Custom View and got a ceiling display of 1.10 or 0.90 when i was somewhere between the 6m and 3m stopp...

[Bardass]

in few words :

deco stop are defined every 3m (10 feet) since Haldane.

this means that when the real calcul of supersaturation defines you gotta stop at 4.4m, your OSTC shows you a deco stop at 6m.

The new feature CEIL displays ... 4.4m
According to the algorithm Bulhmann + GF, you can't go above this limit.

[nodekh]

Is it pure ZH-L16C or modified by GF?

Shouldn't it be done like this: I have ceiling @3,2m deco is calculated according to GF set (let's say 70%) so the deco ceiling will be @4,16m but computer will show stop @6m? But ceiling displayed will be @3,2m?

[Bardass]

i wrote "Bulhmann + GF"

Ceil is calculated with GF High

[nodekh]

OK. Thanks.

Frage zu "NEW: Show event Bailout in internal logbook"

Bailout hat ich ja nur im CCR (pSCR) Mode, oder?

bei OC Tauchgängen ist das ja dann ein normaler Gaswechsel auf Dekogas und kein "Bailout"...

oder hab ich bei meinen OC Gaswechseln was falsch (im OSTC) gemacht, so das es als "Bailout" im Logbuch steht?

The bootloader should try to get http://www.heinrichsweikamp.net/autofirmware/ostc2.hex - which is the 3.00 stable. You can check your tinybld.ini for this link.

But at least you had success by manually installing it.

Hello Matthias

I tried bootloader V1 and JDivelog to resuscitate my OSTC2, even my PC system manager recognize the port COM3 when OSTC2 is plugged. But JDiveLog is sending: Could not establish handshake. Did you press RESET? And Bootloader V1 is showing the following:

I'm using a magnet during the all process, but :S.

Help please.

Last try: Please follow these instructions STEP BY STEP read.php?2,14083

I think it's easier if you send the unit to us for the update...

Please email us directly: info@heinrichsweikamp.com

No magnet is needed for the update.
A magnet reset during the update process may cause the unit to end up with a corrupted OS.
This might inhibit any further update attempt.
Better follow the procedure linked to by Matthias.

[Dahab Boris]

I got, unusually a Could not write.. Error ! the 1st time.
Just tried Update Firmware again and all OK.
Remember when the initial v3.00 screen comes wait for the reboot..

nein, mit der 2.7 - ist vermutlich schon längst behoben.

[gorcio]

In the logbook, profile graph has a color legend for different mixes, but profile curve displays different colors than a legend.
F.e - last weekend, switched to O2 @6m.
Legend shows G2: 100/0 as green color. Graph shows it blue. There is a red text "Bailout" in bottom right corner but for sure I did not bail out as I was on OC.

Best regards

@gorcio

I have seen exactly the same on a dive in my logbook. But this dive was before i update to Firmware 3.00. With my old Firmware 2.90 was this dive displayed correct.

[gorcio]

@Sandro - fully agree. The dives I was referring to were also done while unit was still on 2.9. It only means that 3.0 does not display properly data from logbook dives, recorded with 2.90. Just an annoying detail.

[heinrichsweikamp]

Hi,

It's faulty data from 2.9 dives that is now (correctly) displayed in the 3.00. You won't see this with new dives made with the 3.00.

Matthias

Hallo zusammen,

ich wollte gerade das Update von der 2.90 auf die 3.00 Version machen.
Der Bootloader ( egal welche Version ) gibt mir folgende Fehler:

Connected to \\.\COM3 at 115200
Searching for PIC ..., unknown pic type: 57h
ERROR!


Connected to \\.\COM3 at 115200

Was kann das für ein Fehler sein?

Nachtrag:
über Diving Log funzt alles

[heinrichsweikamp]

Die tinybld.exe nicht direkt aus dem ZIP file starten, sondern erst beide Dateien entpacken (z.B. auf den Desktop) und dann vom dort starten.

Matthias

[Willy]

Danke @ Matthias,

jetzt passt es!

Super danke!

[khagse]

Falls meine Frage bereits gestellt und beantwortet wurde, bitte um Entschuldigung und Link zur Antwort.

Anderenfalls: Wie lässt sich die neue Firmware mit einem Mac (OSX 10.10) updaten?

Danke, André
