I am trying to download data from the Pro Plus 2 dive computer. dmesg shows ttyUSB0 being created and I have added myself to the proper group. Also tried as root.
It looks like nothing is coming back from the computer. I entered the 2 minute download mode and can watch the time count down.
Anymore suggestions?

Do you have a Pro Plus 2, or a Pro Plus 2.1? These are completely different devices, and you wouldn't be the first one to be confused by that. If I remember correctly, they even require a different cable. For the 2 you need the "vtpro" backend, but for the 2.1 it's the "atom2" backend.
Have you ever tried downloading with Oceanlog? If not can you try, to rule out problems with the cable, or hardware? Any change you have a low battery? It's a know problem that low battery causes download problems, even if there is still enough power left for diving.

It is a 2 (the older one. I'll try the 2.1 just in case. The cable wasn't labeled, but does fit.

The battery should be OK. I'll check.
