Can I use the infrared receiver in my apple remote control?

No. The embedded infrared receiver is not suitable for IrDA. You`ll need an extry external USB adapter.

The UWATEC-IrDA Adapter discontinues the transmission, what went wrong?

For the IrDA Adapter that looks like a golden lipstick, please make sure that the position from the dive computer to the infrared adapter is correct. The infrared beam has to be on a straight line to the blue window (receiver) of the dive computer. Just a few centimetres off target and the beam can not focus properly.
Important: The new silver lipstick from UWATEC is now supported for Intel Macs!

Do I need an extra language pack?
