Hi guys
After last week's posts about logging dives on line, I realised my being too lazy to upload my dives from my computer to my laptop was a copout - especially it would take less time to upload than to enter the data... or so I thought.
So I choofed (that means went) to the computer store and bought a shiney good quality infrared adaptor. I installed the software (Smart Trak), installed the hardware (infrared thingy) and checked that it was functioning.
I turned on my Aladin Prime, clicked the transfer dive button and it search but couldn't find the dive computer. I tried a few times with different angles etc, but nada.
So I choofed off again, but to another computer store and bought a more expensive infrared device. Installed it, did a check on it, and again tried to download my dives... but it still wouldn't talk to the dive computer.
Any suggestions?

PS. My computer literacy isn't crash hot, but I can follow directions and I can install and check hardware.
