only transferring some dives?

Post by gaits »

only transferring some dives when connecting macdive on my imac.

Basically i recently went to Egypt on a livaboard and completed 16 dives. These are all showing in my log-gau memory within my Oceanic GEO 2.0 watch.

However upon transferring them in the usual manner, it seems to only transfer 4 dives. I thought it may be an issue as i recently had a low battery when on holiday but after checking i can see all the logged dives within the watch.

Do you have any ideas why it would only be transferring 4 new dives and not all 16 i completed.

Thanks

If you don't get an error, the most likely reason is that you have your sample rate set very low (or high depending on how you view it), say at 2 seconds. If you do this, you will only be able to store a few dives before it fills up.

Note that what you can see on the device itself (without profiles) is not necessarily what you can download. This is actually covered specifically in the FAQ:

And Oceanics fall in to this category. So check your sample rate.
