It is highly likely that the IrDA interface on the Aladin Sport is 
similar to that of the Uwatec Galileo computers. In that case, read the 
section on using the Galileo in the Subsurface user manual. This 
involved installing the IrDA tools from the Internet. The installation 
is simple and works very efficiently for the Galileo. Please, would you 
let me know if this mechanism works for the Aladin so that we can update 
the user manual?
Kind regards,
