Thanks for the tip. I have noticed at least one difference, Surface is
19 or 0x13 in DM4 and on suunto_d9_parse.c that is Deep Safety Stop.
However, this of course could be dependent on the DC. I have Stinger,
Vyper Air and D6 on the sample databases I have received but I have
not really tried to see whether the events are same or different.
