Decoding
Set-up
If using an external power supply attach it to socket A indicated on the unit.
Connect a phono-to-phono lead from the camcorder audio (LH) output into the phono
input of the CamNav (socket C).
Set the Encode /Decode switch to Decode (switch set toward the phono socket)
Switch on the CamNav and start the camcorder playback.
Note the LEDs are flashing similarly to the encode mode – Red at once per second and
the orange at a lesser rate. The green LED should be off in decode.
GPS data is now output from pin 2 of the data connector (Com = Pin 5). By connecting
the serial lead (supplied) to the PC serial input port, the data may be observed on any PC
through the “CamNav.exe” display program supplied on the CD. Note that the program
must be installed to run. See ‘Installation’ above.
If a video card is available on the PC, the video from the camcorder may be displayed on
a window from this device alongside the data display using “CamNav.exe”.
Alternatively, by using CamNav-Mapper the position and picture may be simultaneously
plotted on the moving map by following the instructions for this comprehensive mapping
software package.
If a suitable mapping package has been installed on the PC, this can read the GPS
information being supplied via the serial port.
Operation
Ensure that the correct tape is inserted in the camcorder and commence playback.
Low Battery Indicator
Should the output from the internal battery fall below 6 volts, the LEDs will flash on and off
simultaneously at ½ second intervals. When this occurs the battery should be replaced as
soon as possible or an external supply connected.
