OSTC Companion

Post by Scuba_Wandy »

Evening all,

So I'm trying to get the latest firmware onto my OSTC Sport. I've done it before and all worked fine.

I'm having a problem with the companion software. I select the bluetooth port on my computer as I always have as it seems to change from Port 3 and Port 4 sometimes.

Anyway, when I switch the bluetooth on the sport and try to connect, it tells me that it it not an OSTC Sport that is connected.

Now I've done all the usual such as switch it on and off again etc. I've even switched all other bluetooth devices off (such as phones) in the house, but still, when I try and connect it tells me that its not a sport.

I've even tried selecting different options, but to no avail.

The sport connects fine when I download dives to Dive Log, so I'm pretty sure the issue is with the companion software rather than the sport or my laptop.

Anyone got any ideas?

Appreciate your time.

Cheers

Hi,

Choose "OSCT 3+" for the new firmware generations. I already have a test version of the new companion running with reduced options in the computer list for easier use.

Cheers Matthias, worked a treat. Deffo a bit confusing though as if you have a sport, obviously you're going to select the sport to connect to! Look forward to the simplified update of companion. Have a great week and thanks again for the help.
