Download of Uwatec Sol compass bearing

[jovialjames]

Greetings from Australia, can anyone advise if the Sol passes the compass bearing over the datalink during download please?

I have only used SmartTRAK for my downloads, but the answer is YES it does. And if you set your bearing 10 dives ago it will continue to be that bearing unless you reset it. I have no idea how it would appear on another download program such as with DiveNav.

Many thanks Jeff, is it only the bearing that is "SET" by the diver or the actual compass heading traversed by the diver at preset intervals that will enable the diver to plot a dive (understanding that I don't have GPS) please?

 

[Jeff Scott]

Its the bearing that you physically set and and its just a little red dot in the top left corner of the screen that says "bearing" and a degree. It just keep that bearing in memory I guess and will continue to do so until you reset it.

What if you re-set your bearing more than once during the dive, will it transfer all of the bearings set during the dive?

Thanks Jeff, is SCUBAPRO able to advise if the actual compass heading in addition to the set compass bearing are passed over the infra-red datalink please? Independent of what data is actually presented in Smartrak or Datatrak.
