    Suunto Cobra vs. Vyper

    If you like the Cobra get one. Just be aware that there are situations that it is not optimal. You May find you don't like a console, many don't - I don't. Personaly, I don't like AI, I tried it once. An older Dacor console that had a digital pressure gauge and an 'air remaining in minutes'...

    Suunto Cobra vs. Vyper

    Ask a few of the divers from around detroit about river diving. Yeah, call the dive and go straight up into a shipping channel - a very busy shipping channel. There are a lot of senerios that have a 'soft' ceiling. Time isn't as important as how much gas is left. If you dive enough, you can even...

    the Gauge is as good as an analog - but have you ever heard of a battery failing in an analog guage??

    Has anyone got the PC interface for the Suunto D6?

    It shouldn't be very hard to make an interface. The CustomIdeas USB cable is almost a perfect cadidate for a conversion. It woud take a different connector to the computer and a "bent" set of pins and thats about it! I'll send them an email and see what they think.

    Suunto Gekko - Dive Download ????

    How are you initiating the download? Are you using the "left click on the 'computer' icon", or the "(right click in window)->Connect->Vyper method" I'm not sure it'll matter but try both. I do have a tool that'll dump all the memory, but it's not ready for release yet. You would have to do all...

    Drowning: A peaceful way to go?

    What a perfectly Morbid subject. If you're really curious, look up Ron Ault at HoodSportanDive over on the olympic penisula of washington state and ask Him. When he was in the navy's experimentental diving program back in the 60's, they strapped him to a board and drownd him just to see what...

    Be sure to back up the D9.mdb database before you uninstall SDN 2.x.! You are correct sir! Pressure readings are in 1/2 bars. It could be worse - in the computer itself depths are actualy stored as 1/128 ft :shakehead I fix those before they get outside though. Good Luck.

    Suunto Gekko - Dive Download ????

    You're welcome, glad it helped. DCEraser is a windows program and should run from the 'start' menu ( or desktop) not the command line. It is packaged in a 'Wise for windows' selfinstalling executable and will be shown in the start menu under 'JCONN'. Once the program is running select the...

    suunto gekko vs aeris atmos 2?

    hack :confused: HACK :redhot: And I bet you think Sliced bread is just a hack of a good loaf eh? :cussing: Naw, you're right, it's a hack. :D A better description of how it works is: It tells the Gekko to tell Suunto's dive log software that it's talking to a vyper and thus should...

    I didn't see the number, but it seems fitting :devil: Yes, I know the files are missing, they will be back up after I'm done with an upgrade. The API is waiting on more D model support, And I'll likely hold off on it until i see the New models this spring. I have a guess that they will use...

    Suunto Gekko - Dive Download ????

    I just finished a portion of the new version of the DLL. It should work better with thirdparty interfaces. Your's is not the first 'homemade' to have problems, USB/RS232 adapters should have more luck also. At least I'd appreciate some testing, please. Look for the new Gekko2vyper download on...

    Split Fins

    I'm not sure I fully agree with you. I'v noticed that even with proper trim the votecies tend to drop towards the bottom. I think ( and it's only a guess ) that they are a little like the wingtip vortex generated by aircraft, the vortexes move outwards and downwards. Even in a 'frog' (or...

    That program is being rewritten, I'm updating it from the primitive 'test' program it was to a more user freindly version. Unfortuanatly, it's on a back burner, I'm tring to get a 'D model' version of the downloader going. It'll be nessesary in the spring - I'm fairly certain the new vyper/cobra...

    New Profile Eraser available for Suunto comps

    I've rewritten the history/profile eraser tool. The previous version could cause errors in the way the computer read the histories. http://LiquidImagePhoto.com click "free stuff" Does anyone work at a shop that has a copy of the suunto program to remove the tissue loading from the...

    Well, I could have screwed up and reveresed a value or 2, you know "tihs sneppah" . This program was originaly written for 'Sharkpoint', and as they had trouble integrating it into their software, it recieved minimal testing. Also, AFAIK nobody who is useing this program uses that data to build...

    The DiveManager does indeed model the tissue compartments based on the data downloaded in the profile. There is (AFAIK) no way to get the tissue loadings out of the computer. Likewise, I haven't found a way to set/retreive the Gas Mix values. They are stored in the DC but not available...
