Anyone got any tips/tricks on getting a Petrel 2 to connect to anything outside of the outstandingly bad Shearwater Cloud 2 App ?

Devices and software that I have tried to connect:
  • iPhone 11 MacDive & Subsurface
  • iPad Pro MacDive & Subsurface
  • 2019 Macbook Pro MacDive and Subsurface (both in boot camp and in MacOS)
  • Pixel 5 Subsurface]
  • Windows Desktop Subsurface
Nothing wants to talk to this petrel other than Shearwater cloud app.
  • Updated firmware
  • Replace battery
  • Made sure device was off between connections

Teric, Perdix, and Nerd are all fine. I mean the goal is to get MacDive to work with this computer, I would highly reluctantly settle on subsurface working.
 
Try this mate, it's all I've ever used and it's awesome.

 
Petrel 2 is on this list of compatible models, good luck

No, I have never been able to get to download to Subsurface on my laptop, but downloads to the Shearwater App on my Android phone.
