+11. How to find the Device Name
+
+When you connect your divecomputer by using an USB connector, most of the
+time, the default of ยด/dev/ttyUSB0' should work. But if you have other
+Serial to USB devices, this can be different because '/dev/ttyUSB0' is
+already in use.
+
+One of the ways to find out what your dive name is:
+
+ Disconnect your usb cable of your dive computer
+ Open a terminal
+ Type the command: 'dmesg' and press enter
+ Plug in your usb cable of your divecomputer
+ Type the command: 'dmesg' and press enter
+
+Within your terminal you should see a message similair to this one:
+
+ usb 2-1.1: new full speed USB device number 14 using ehci_hcd
+ usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial
+ USB Serial support registered for generic
+ usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial_generic
+ usbserial: USB Serial Driver core
+ USB Serial support registered for FTDI USB Serial Device

+ usb 2-1.1: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB3
+ usbcore: registered new interface driver ftdi_sio
+ ftdi_sio: v1.6.0:USB FTDI Serial Converters Driver
+
+You see that in the third line from the bottom, the usb adapter is
+detected and is connected to 'ttyUSB3'. Now you use this information in
+the import settings as '/dev/ttyUSB3'. Your divecomputer interface is
+connected and you should be able to import your dives.
