PC INTERFACE
Interface with a PC (for data Upload and Download) is accom-
plished by connecting the Element II to a PC USB Port using the
USB Interface Cable avaiable as an optional accessory.
The PC Interface program, together with a USB Driver, is
downloadable from tusa.com. The Help portion serves as the
user manual and can be printed for personal use. The Settings
Upload portion is used to check the Element II's existing Settings
and for entering Time, Alarm, and other settings into the Element
II. The Download portion is used to retrieve Data that was
sampled during dives and stored in the Element II's memory.
The Element II checks for an External Access request once every
second while in Surface Mode. Checks are not made if the unit
is wet. For a connection to be made, the Interface Cable is
clipped onto the Element II's Data Port and plugged into a PC
USB Port. To establish the connection, the PC program must be
running.
When the connection is made, a PC screen appears on the
Element II displaying the graphic PC and a countdown for 2
minutes or until completion of the interface operation. Then
operation reverts to the Surface Main screen.
