Liquivision DC support?
by Lutz Vieweg 21 Feb '13

21 Feb '13

Hi Jef, a friend of mine happenes to use a Liquivision X1 computer. I understand libdivecomputer does not yet support that model, but wanted to ask whether there are any known attempts underway to change that? Or would it be realistic to assume that borrowing that computer for just a few days trying to sniff its protocol would deliver enough information to support it? Regards, Lutz Vieweg

Now we only have to convince them to provide protocol documentation rather than a pre-build shared library (see my other email to the libdivecomputer and subsurface mailinglists). Jef

Hi, The v0.3.0 release is now available! http://www.divesoftware.org/libdc/releases/libdivecomputer-0.3.0.tar.gz The v0.3.0 release introduces some interesting features for technical divers, support for a number of new devices and many smaller bugfixes. There have been a few minor changes to the public interface, to remove a few deprecated functions. Therefore this release is not completely backwards compatible with the previous release. However, most applications won't be affected by these changes. New features: * Add support for the Cressi Leonardo. * Add support for the Mares Nemo Wide 2, Matrix and Puck Pro. * Add support for the Shearwater Predator and Petrel. * Add support for decostop / ndl samples * Add support for setpoint, ppO2 and CNS * Add support for salinity and atmospheric pressure * Add a new gaschange2 event with O2 and He percentages. * Add a new vendor event. * Add some missing size macros. * Add timestamps to the default log function. * Include the git commit SHA1 in the version number. Removed/changed features: * Remove the suunto_vyper_device_set_delay function. * Remove the reefnet_sensusultra_device_set_maxretries function. * Remove the xxx_device_set_timestamp functions. * Remove the uwatec_smart_device_version function. * Remove the dc_device_version function. * Remove the page, packet and memory size macros from the public api. * Add a model parameter to the mares_iconhd_device_open function. Bug fixes: * [d9] Fix the fingerprint offset for the Suunto D4i, D6i and D9tx. * [d9] Add support for the new D6i firmware. * [veo250] Add support for the Seemann XP5. * [atom2] Add support for a second Aeris Elite T3 variant. * [atom2] Fix the tank pressure decoding for the Hollis DG03. * [vtpro] Fix the unit conversion for the max depth. * [iconhd] Decode the serial number as a 32 bit number. * [suunto] Fix the decoding of the Suunto serial numbers. * [d9] Add support for trimix gas changes. * [cobalt] Add gas changes and violation events for Atomic Aquatics Cobalt * [ostc] Fix gas handling for OSTC * [misc] Log the date/time and version in the example applications. * [puck] Add a small delay before retrying a packet. * [misc] Update the msvc project file. * [vyper2] Read the version info when opening the connection. * [atom2] Fix a typo in the Sherwood Wisdom 3 model number. * [misc] Fix a redefinition warning for the ERROR macro. * [ostc] Skip the size validation for unused divisors. * [atom2] Add support for the Aeris A300 AI. * [ostc] Autodetect the three OSTC variants. * [ostc] Fix a regression in the depth calculation. * [atom2] Add support for a second Sherwood Insight variant. * [ostc] This adds support for a subset of the events the OSTC provides. * [ostc] Correct the OSTC depth calculation * [atom2] Add support for a second Aeris Epic variant. * [atom2] Fix the parser for the Hollis DG03.
