ICON HD COM (COM7) Driver

The ICON HD COM (COM7) driver enables Windows to recognize the USB communication interface used by a Mares ICON HD dive computer. It is intended for owners who need to connect their device to compatible desktop software to transfer dive records, or who are troubleshooting an unrecognized USB connection.

Key Features

• USB communication support: Provides the driver interface needed for compatible Mares software to communicate with the connected device.
• COM port recognition: Helps Windows identify the device as a serial communication port. Although it may appear as COM7, the assigned port number can vary between computers or USB connections.
• Legacy Windows compatibility: Listed operating systems include Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, and XP. Choose a package that matches your Windows version and system architecture.
• Connection troubleshooting: Installing the correct driver may resolve missing-driver warnings or device detection problems caused by an absent or incompatible driver.

How to Install ICON HD COM (COM7) Driver

1. Check your Windows version. Confirm your operating system and whether it is 32-bit or 64-bit. If you are comparing Windows 10/11 compatibility, note that Windows 11 is not included in the listed supported systems; verify support with Mares before proceeding.
2. Choose a compatible package. Before starting an ICON HD COM (COM7) driver download for Windows, check the package details and source. Look for the latest version compatible with your system, and use a trusted free download rather than an unrelated driver utility.
3. Prepare the files. Extract the download if it is compressed, then review any included instructions. Connect or disconnect the dive computer as directed by the package documentation.
4. Install the driver. Run the supplied installer, if available. If the package contains only driver files, open Device Manager, locate the device, choose “Update driver,” and browse to the extracted folder.
5. Verify the connection. Reconnect the device if needed and check Device Manager for its COM port assignment. Select that port in compatible Mares software if required, then test whether the software detects the dive computer.

Keep the driver updated when Mares provides a compatible release that addresses a connection issue or supports your setup. Before you update a working installation, review the release notes and retain the previous installer in case you need to restore it.
