Depth seems to be converting from feet to meters

[tscheven]

Hi Sven,

Happy New Year!

When I download the data from my dive computer to DL5 RC1, despite the fact that Units preference is set to Imperial, it seems to be converting the Max Depth from feet and displaying it as meters.

Can you tell me where this is controlled and if I can change it?

Thanks,

Todd.

Todd,

This a Suunto?
If so could you send me the debug log and the download .xml file?
I want make sure things are normal.

[tscheven]

Yes; a Gekko.

Here's the Suunto XML file. How do I generate the debug output?

Thanks.

Hi Todd, hi James

This is a bug in my XML parser and happens only when Diving Log runs in imperial units. I'll release a bug fix later this week, in the meantime you can temporary switch Diving Log to metric units, then download and then switch back to imperial units.

Kind regards,
Sven

Hi Sven,

I'll just enter the correct depth in FT in the field itself. No biggie.

Thanks,

Todd.

I agree with Todd.
This is more of an annoyance but not a biggie. I know you will fix it, but it does not need top priority.

Thanks Sven.

I'll test it now and let you know if I still have an issue.

Sven,
This update (1/5/10) fixed the problem. I re-downloaded my dive data and now my dive log matches what is on my D9.
I have done some beta testing before; I have never worked with anyone as diligent as you are with fixing bugs. Thanks a lot!
I'll keep looking for any other problems or challenges. If you need me to directly test anything with my Suunto setup, let me know.

Hear, hear.

Top notch.
