Connecting a Suunto D6 to a computer
I've just got a D6 to replace my Mosquito - yes, I used to have more money than sense - and realised that the interface to the PC is different to the Mosquito.

I used to have a homebrew cable from some bloke from Singapore that sells on eBay for the Mosquito which worked very well. Does anyone out there in diverland know of a similar product for the D6 or do I have to buy a Suunto cable at vast expense?

Given the amazing number of replies, I suspect that there is no cheap option.
So I've given up and paid for the presumably gold plated Suunto one.

Thanks

Did it come with all the software? Or can you get it cheaper if you already have all the software!

It came in a nice suunto box with a CD which I assume is the software. There were no instructions. I didn't get an option to go for cable only.

As I'm currently having issues with my Dell's power supply the CD could contain soothing music for all I know. I'll keep you posted.

Using a different computer I can confirm that the software is Suunto Dive Manager 2.3.0 and the USB drivers. The computer autodetects the cable and everything is really rather good.

Hopefully the software will be good too.
