6.3 DATA TRANSFER AND PC-INTERFACE

The Spyder can be connected to an IBM compatible personal computer (PC), us-

ing the optional SUUNTO ACW PC-Interface and its software. With the PC-Inter-

face dive data from the Spyder can be downloaded to a PC. The PC-Interface

software can be used for educational and demonstration purposes, for planning

dives, as well as for keeping complete record of your dive history with the Spyder.

Complete Logbook data can also be included. Paper copies of your dive log and

profiles can then easily be printed.
The data transfer is carried out using the water contact of the Spyder. The follow-

ing data is transferred to the PC:
• depth profile of the dive

• dive time

• dive number

• altitude and personal adjustment settings

• temperature at maximum depth

• surface interval time

• dive entry time (year, month, day and time)

• additional dive information (e.g. violations)

• identity number
It is also possible to manually add comments and other personal information to the

PC based dive data files. The SUUNTO ACW PC-Interface package comes com-

plete with the interface unit, the software on 3.5" disks, and a complete instruction

manual.
