Now I have a Win7 computer an portmon is running , but it is 32-bit. But the crap software from SEAC requires a 64-bit machine. So I can't get any further :-(
On 64bit windows you can use some other capture application. Unfortunately I'm not aware of a free one. I have good experience with Eltima and it has a fully functional 14 days demo version that you can use for this purpose:
https://www.eltima.com/products/serial-port-monitor/
But before you try this, I suggest you try the following first:
Download this build:
https://libdivecomputer.org/builds/experimental/windows/seac-tablet.exe
Connect your dive computer, and run the command-line tool with these options:
seac-tablet -vv -l screen.log -f screen dump -o screen.bin COMx
(Replace COMx with the correct serial port.)
When finished, send me the screen.log and screen.bin files. The screen.bin file will only exist if the download was successful, so no worries if it's not there.
For the bluetooth, download this build:
https://libdivecomputer.org/builds/experimental/windows/dctool-ble.exe
First scan to find the MAC address of your Seac dive computer:
dctool-ble -vv -l scan.log scan -t ble
And then try to connect to the dive computer:
dctool-ble -vv -l screen-ble.log -f screen dump -o screen-ble.bin -t ble MAC
(Replace MAC with the MAC address you found in the previous step.)
Send the scan.log and screen-ble.log files. Downloading over BLE won't work at all, but it will let us discover which services and characteristics are available. That's the first step.
