amadus98:
According to the website it supports import of Oceanic and Aeris, not direct uploading of dive profiles. Sounds like you have to upload you PDC data to your Oceanic software and then import that into Dive Log 4.0. I have an Atmos 2 and I may download his software and give it a try.
Direct download is unfortunately not available for Oceanic / Aeris computers, so you must download with Oceanlog and then import the data into Diving Log. A direct download is at the moment possible for ReefNet Sensus Ultra / Pro, Uwatec Aladin, and most of the Suunto computers (thanks to James Connell).

Thanks for the info Sven.....
Trying to avoid Oceanlog completely......

I have it and like it.
There are some issues with imperial vs. metric measurements, particularly with regard to the difference in the way tank capacities are handled on each side of the pond, and measurements and figures in general. It is very Euro-centric in that regard. Hopefully many of the little issues will be resolved with the next version. It is actively being worked on, however, so perhaps even an interim update can(has?) address the issue.
Also, there is a LOT of information that does not get imported from SmartTrak, for those with ScubaPro/Uwatec computers. The basics, yes, the extra info I spent so much time inputting, no. I don't have an Oceanic computer, so I can't attest any functionality (or lack) there.
Overall, however, I like it a lot. I just wish I could completely replace SmartTrak with it, but since it leaves out so much info, I mostly use it to import from SmartTrak and then print logs (which is does very well).
