Initial release of Boreas Manager
Table 27: Boreas Manager Software Changelog
9.2.2 System Requirements
Boreas Manager is a Java application and therefore requires a recent version of Java to be pre-installed. This is
available for download at no charge at
. Ensure you install 64-bit Java.
Boreas Manager includes a 3D mapping display which requires an internet connection. If your machine does
not meet the graphics requirements the mapping view will only show space without a globe.
Note, when Boreas is running at very high output rates e.g. 1000 Hz, Boreas Manager can consume significant
system resources handling the large quantity of data.
9.2.3 Installation and Starting
The latest version of Boreas Manager can be downloaded from the
product page of the Advanced
Navigation website..
Boreas Manager does not need to be installed and on a Windows system it can be run from any directory by
simply double clicking on it.
On Linux and MacOS systems it may be necessary to run the application from a terminal window:
java –jar BoreasManager.jar
The Boreas Evaluation Kit includes an FTDI USB to RS232 / RS422 adaptor cable. The drivers are normally
installed automatically, but if not they are available for download from

9.2.4 Troubleshooting
If the application will not start, the most common reason is that you have 32-bit Java installed on a 64-bit

If the globe does not appear in the 3D map area, this indicates that either your graphics card is not powerful
enough, your graphics card driver is out of date, or you have no internet connection.
l
Ensure the RS232 / RS422 switch is in the correct mode. The Boreas factory default mode is RS422.
l
Ensure you select the correct COM port. This can be easily identified by unplugging and re-plugging in the
USB connector.
l
Ensure you have the correct baud rate selected in Boreas Manager. The factory default value for the baud
rate is 115200 bps for the Primary, GPIO and Auxiliary ports.
