    Infrared Interface for downloading dive data?

    Hey Divers,

    I recently bought an Aladin 2G dive console. I am looking to download my dive information to my computer via an infrared interface but have no idea where to find one. I went to Best Buy a couple of days ago and they had no idea what i was talking about?

    Some guidance would be appreciated...

    Thanks

    Try doing a search here on ScubaBoard.

    Several folks on this particular thread have offered up various IR dongle solutions.

    What would you do? ScubaBoard has a "What if...?" series geared for beginner divers.

    I have four uwatecs that download through iRda. Buy the cheapest you can find (online).

    IF you have a 64 bit operating system, buy one for that.

    Or, if you ask nicely, I'll send you the one that came with one of mine . . . since I never use it, anyway.

    Just make sure you get the 64-bit driver, if that is what your PC operating system is.

    Not sure I'd recommend buying the cheapest one. I did that. Every time I downloaded my 2G to my laptop it was successful... but crashed the system forcing me to reboot.
    Dr. Bill: I once had a 6-pack but now I have a full keg... well, maybe just a pony!
    Dr. Bill: Not THAT kind of doctor... but I'll take a look at it anyway!
