Subsurface and multiple dive computers

[dylanfromwinnipeg]

I just switched to CCR and now dive with both a perdix and a petrel. Up until now I've been downloading all my dives from the perdix -> subsurface. What happens in subsurface if I try to download from both the perdix and the petrel? will I end up with duplicated dives in subsurface? Or will it do something more intelligent?

If the start time of the dives match up reasonably well (I don't remember exactly how close, but a few minutes difference isn't a problem), then you'll have the profile from both computers linked to one dive. On desktop you can switch between the different computers with the left and right arrow keys. At the bottom of the profile it'll list the name of the computer and how many you have. You can also right click on the name to change the order they are shown, delete, rename it, or split into separate dives.

In the mobile app only the first computer is visible as far as I know and I don't think it will let you change which one that is.

I download both my Teric and my Perdix to the Shearwater Cloud, and display the data on my desktop and on my phone (Android).
I'm able to search for just my Teric dives on my phone by inputting that as a search parameter.

@tursiops, are you by chance talking about the Shearwater Cloud? (The OP is using Subsurface.)

Here is how Subsurface handles multiple DC. Here's one such profile:

Notice the highlighted (by me) lower left corner where the DC model is followed by (#1 of 2). By pressing the left/right arrow you move to the next DC which in this case looks like this:

Now the profile from the 2nd DC is shown and to identify what we are seeing the 2nd DC model is followed by (#2 of 2).
All these work only on the desktop version. Not the mobile app.
I hope this helps.

I can't speak for the iOS version, but on Android there is are "Prev DC" and "Next DC" buttons just below the profile graph that cycle through the profiles as recorded by each computer.

Yes, I added the word "Shearwater" for clarity. My point was that I could filter to just one of my computers in the SW app, and perhaps the OP can do that in Subsurface too. Subsurface is too flakey for me; I don't use it, so don't know.

Indeed, I can confirm this. Learning something new every day.
