Petrel 2 Download

[Anton Lundin]

I'm on a diving boat in the middle of the Baltic sea right now, and on my cell, but to me it sounds like a pairing issue.

Try bt-device yada connect something and re-pair the computer with your dongle.

Link keys are kept by the os so if you paired that device with that dongle under a different os you need to re-pair the devices.
