Re: Mares Puck trouble downloading SOLVED

[Tim Collins]

Thank you for that suggestion--I bought the Mares Puck retail 2+ years ago,  and all the documentation with it says "Mares Puck".

Changing the dive computer to "puck 2" fixed the problem, downloaded with no problem.

thank you

Are you sure you have a Puck, and not one of the newer versions (e.g. Puck 2 or Puck Pro)? Despite the similar name, they use a completely different communication protocol.

PS: Please keep the mailinglist in CC. If you answer me personally, then nobody else sees your question and thus nobody else can help you.

When I try to download from my mares puck, I get this error

any suggestions?

Enable the libdivecomputer logfile checkbox and include the generated
logfile here.

 it appears that the device is connected, as this command (found on another

discussion board)

tail -f /var/log/syslog

gives (in part)

This looks good.
