Pretel dives not downloading.

[Pablo Wolter]

Thanks Rick. Unfortunately it did not help. Exact same issue. Weird
thing is that not even the Sherwater software can see my Pretel. Mac
pairs it without issues.

Will have to dig some more to try other things. Will elt you know if I
have success or find anything different.
