SubSurface and the new Deep6 Excursion firmware

[rhwestfall]

Is there any initiative or timeline for the new deep6 Excursion (firmware re-write) to be included in SubSurface supported devices? I've delayed upgrading from the current firmware due to wanting logging support.

Thanks.

point is, it seems nothing works with the new firmware...

I just downloaded some dives from my Excursion to my PC running WIN11.
Critical info is in this thread, posts 35-36-37.
My Excursion is D01-6C.

What bluetooth device and driver's are you using? Or, what pc?

DELL XPS-8930
Shearwater BT Dongle
Microsoft BT Driver dated 6/21/2006 Driver Version 10.0.22621.1778
Generic BT Radio

Nothing special, as far as I know.

I've only used the native bt radio. Maybe I need to try the SW dongle and see. IIRC, it didn't work with my one mini-pc. I can try it on another PC.

Has anyone figured out how to get this to work from a mac?

In the subsurface daily build directory there are recent dmg files present. You can try those on Mac.

So far I have not been able to get any to work. It seems like it’s been awhile since a new version has been released hopefully that will happen at some point all all will work again

Any updates?

It's been in libdivecomputer for a while, but I am uncertain of current adoption into the apps depending on LDC. I was able to download dives in Macdive when I tested a while back.

I think there are some relevant posts further up that were listed out by @tursiops

What is your setup? ie: What desktop OS and what are you trying to do.
