Did the downloading worked before, or is this the first time you tried?

The reason why I'm asking is that downloading from the aladin works a bit 
different compared to other dive computers. The transfer is initiated by the 
dive computer (I believe you have to activate some buttons or something like 
that), which means you have to start the download in subsurface. It will now 
wait for the data from the dive computer. At this point you have to initiate the 
transfer on the dive computer.
