Re: Suunto D9 Problem

I was trying the Suunto DM4 software for some time and gave up, and decided to try Mac-Dive. FWIW. I like the User Interface better with Mac-Dive and hope we can figure this out. All is not lost if unable, but a wish is a wish. I am going to try this on my early 2009 iMac that is also running Maveri...

Re: Suunto D9 Problem

Put this conversation together for others to follow in one place. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP NICK! Seriously, THANK YOU. Alternatively, if you have and that's the only serial port, are you sure that the cable is not from a D4i/D6i/D9tx ? The cables are incompatible between the newer and older D-series ...

Re: Suunto D9 Problem

I have not tried to re-install yet. I found the verification process on the TN_105 document from FTDI Chip Web site. Sounds like there is an issue of .kext not migrating (write verbage??) to the root library and not a temp user folder. I do not see it in my libray/extentions folder. Here is a copy o...

Re: Suunto D9 Problem

You are quick! Thank you so much for your help. I am going to try your suggestions right now.

The battery was replaced in the watch and the transmitter in November.

The watch worked flawlessly while diving over Christmas and New Years for 10 days of 3 dives a day.

Sincerely,
Duke

Re: Suunto D9 Problem

Thanks for the quick response. In part of the post you trimmed I highlighted that I used the FTDIUSBSerialDriver_v2_2_18 installer to install the USB driver. http://duked.smugmug.com/photos/i-XpPRvqN/0/M/i-XpPRvqN-M.png http://duked.smugmug.com/photos/i-p2RqqwX/0/M/i-p2RqqwX-M.png After that I could...
