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.
