The Suunto Dive Manager software (say version 2.3) provides average depth information. Since this is a piece of cake to calculate from the profile data, which is stored in all Suunto dive-computers, I am hoping this information is always displayed. However, computers like the D6 and D9 do not seem to provide average depth on the dive-computer screen itself (I know for sure the D6 doesn't) and I am wondering if the dive manager software indeed calculates it from the profile data or whether it simply displays what's already in the dive-computer (in which case average depth would not be available). Can anybody with a D6 or D9 and also using the Dive-Manager software comment on this one?
As someone who has reverse-engineered the download protocol for these computers, I did not find the average depth being sent from the dive computer to the desktop. My software calculates it from the profile data.

Thanks Mark. Unfortunately I don't own a MAC... Any plans for making a Windows version? Wih regard to average depth, somebody mentioned in a different thread that the Suunto software calculates it from the profile data also...
