Oceanlog 2.1.8 SAC calculation problem

[Doug Krause]

Got your email - wrong file. I need the most recent file ending with .dlg, in the OceanLog directory.

I will try again. what are the perks for program lab rats?

ok, got it changed back to imperial. now all my numbers (temp, tank size) etc all end in .99 or something. the conversion obviously got messed up.

Can you please wait to post until it is kink free?

?? Seems OK to me - I can toggle back and forth between Imperial and Metric without problem and the values seem to be valid.

I find that the SAC rate calculator isn't accurate on v 2.1.8. I run the exact numbers in my Excel spreadsheet and I get different numbers.

tell me if I am correct:
tank size: 133
PSI rating: 3442
Avg. Depth: 40
time: 49
PSI used: 1600psi
start pres: 3400
End press: 1600
SAC rate from oceanlog: .813
SAC rate from my Calcs: .57
I have attached my calculator that I used.

Am i wrong with my calcs or is oceanlog off?



All also find that when I enter anything in any box i must save it as soon as I am done. It will not retain it until I close the problem. If i switch views, See-ya! it deletes it all. I also can't change my dive gear profile as stated before.

Lastly, why is the dive type (dry, night etc) located under the Location page?

Start 3400 - end 1600 = used 1800


Could that be the problem?

Oops, someone beat me to it....

I get all the numbers I enter regarding my tank specs/pressures don't convert both directions properly. I think the code is rounding off the numbers improperly when it switches back to imperial from metric.

any new news?

version 2.1.9 and release notes are available now at:

Oceanic Worldwide - Owner Services - Software

I will add the additional reports made to be discussed with the programmers. Any others?

Doug-

Your link on the web page still links to 2.1.8. The release notes show 2.1.9.
If I change the filename of the download, I can download 2.1.9, but the link is not linking to the proper version.

OK - 2.2.0 is ready for scubaboard review -

Oceanic Worldwide - Owner Services - Software

I went to Scubase some time ago because of all the shortcomings of Oceanlog. It has not been totally workable, because every time Oceanic updates Oceanlog, some type of problem is created in the export file that is used by Scubase.

The most recent release of Oceanlog 2.1.8 creates a file that cannot be imported into Scubase without some manual massaging of the data file.

The latest Oceanlog has the heading, "Dive Data" at the top of the export text file. The versions prior to 2.1.8 had "Dives Data" in the heading. That small little change is what causes the Scubase import to fail. If you go add the "s" back at the end of "Dive" in the text file, it works.

I just emailed Scubase about the small fix needed.

Doug - Oceanlog 2.2.0 seems to work for me, but I am not switching back and forth from imperial to metric, so I haven't tested that.

doug, can you add the 's' and submit 2.2.1?
