PC INTERFACE
The VT 4.0 is configured with a Data Port (Fig. 130a) that enables it to be connected to a PC through a USB port using a special
Interface Cable supplied or available as an optional accessory.
A USB Driver is provided on the OceanLog CD. This must be installed on the PC with the program.
The Settings Upload feature can be used to set/change all of the unit's settings except FO2 which must be entered using the unit's
control buttons and menu system.
Information* available for retrieval (DownLoad) from the VT 4.0 to the PC OceanLog program includes items such as dive num-
ber, surface interval time, max depth, elapsed dive time, start date and time, lowest temperature underwater, sampling rate, dive
profile, Set Points, start/end pressure, Air Time Remaining, O2 data, ascent rate, TLBG, and Switching events.
*
FREE Dive information is only available using the PC interface system.
The VT 4.0 checks for the presence of an interface device connection to the Data Port once every second while in Surface Mode.
Checks are not made if the Wet Activation contacts are wet. Upon sensing an interface connection, the requesting device (PC)
connects to the VT 4.0 and is prepared for Upload of settings or Download of data which is then initiated using the PC OceanLog
program.
Prior to attempting to Download data from your VT 4.0 or Upload settings to it, review the Help section of the OceanLog pro-
gram. Recommended is to print those sections of Help that you consider appropriate for your interface activities.
The VT 4.0 checks for a connection to the Data Port once every second while the Surface Main is displayed. Checks are not
made if the Wet Activation contacts are wet.
When the PC Interface cable is plugged in, the graphic PC COMM is displayed (Fig. 131) with a 2 minute countdown timer that
runs until the connection is confirmed, then the graphics PC COMM CONNECTED are displayed (Fig. 132) until completion of
the upload or download operation.
