Okay there in my gallery and now??

That must have failed also since I don't see a gallery with your username on it.



If you do see it, find your photo click on it and open it up in a medium view. There will be links off to the side. Highlight the second one down (Linked Image) Hit Ctrl-C and then paste it into your post. Note: you have to Ctrl-C to copy the link - not highlight and right click select it.

Try installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable and see what happens.

Thans but this also not works. I have have to get. Windows installer 3.1. THE problem is that Windows do not support win 98 anymore. I think I Will leave iT or may be I buy a new irda

After install it, finally success,
It is very hard to get the connection between XP to Smart Pro,
i have press the connect button more then 100 times,
it keep showing "connection error"
but finally it work.

There are one thing need to be remember,
The Smart Pro need to set to logbook icon!

Hi DeDragonSlayer,

i'm trying to replace the battery of smart pro rev D, i've soldered the new battery and the wrench symbol appears
is that i need to ground the pin of the IC now in order to reset it? and is that i must lift the pin out of the board in order to ground it?
if my soldering skills is not good enough to lift the pin, can i juz cut the pin and ground it?
Thank you and looking forward to your advice. (really done a nice job here )

one last question? there 's no software solution for resetting it so far rite?

Yes, as I wrote before, the pin is grounded by design in rev.D. So you must effectively unground it, and then temporarily ground it again to reset the microcontroller.
You can do by cutting of course, if your cutting skills are better than my soldering skills. However this way you risk more damage, because of the increased force needed. You might break off a trace from the main board, or do some more irreversible damage. A soldering iron with a very sharp tip would be my preferred tool.

Not that I know of, my soft only resets the battery counter, not the whole device.

Thank for your reply, DeDragonSlayer
I'll try unsoldering it then

May i ask one more question?
I've unsolder the pin and ground it, it beeps but then the wrench is still there, with temperature reading blink n displaying oxygen 21%
is it normal? or i need to do something?

Thanks a lot for any advice

Uwatec Smart Pro does that. Temperature will stop blinking tomorrow. I don't remember first hand what happens to the wrench symbol (it's been a while since i messed with my computer), but as I understand post #70 the wrench will disappear also.
