Running OS10.12, no problem downloading dives from my Cobalt2 (and the wife's cobalt 1) at all with MacDive. And I can't agree more, Nick at MacDive is hells-nice guy and super quick to respond and help.
Very easy installation. Should only take a tech a couple of minutes. my local dive shop has them, so its probably a matter of who's noticed they are available and who's walked in and asked for them.
Actually Tammy, ODiN only allows instructors to download the open water instructor manual, not the open water student manual. The instructor manual is really a big outline, so its not very useful to someone that doesn't know the material very well already.
I'm fairly certain if SSI, or any of the other agencies, made a copy of their OW Manual available as a PDF, they would be out of business. They sell books for a living... So like as cardinal rule of scuba diving states, don't hold your breath.
Sorry, i was replying to Crosshair's comment about counterfeit cards.
I made no assertions about the length of a c card number, only that the qr code appeared to be useless. If you want to verify an ssi c card, you can either dig out the phone, scan the qr code, put in the divers birthdate...
I think you'd be really hard pressed to find a dive operator that wants to check the validity of every card that comes into their shop. At our shop, we photocopy every card for every diver that we didn't teach, a big enough hassle for the staff. I look at the card, it has the person's picture...
The c card is verification of scuba cert, so lets put a qr code to verify the authentication of what's on a printed card....seems circular logic. If you didn't have the card, you wouldn't have the qr code....cart...horse....chicken.....!!! :-)
I'd love to see a regular clock while diving with my Cobalt, I always want to know when lunch is.....and maybe even release notes with firmware upgrades letting us know what changed....
