Blueprint Subsea ArtemisPRO User manual

CONSOLE FEATURES
GETTING STARTED Before using the ArtemisPRO system for the first time,
please read the full User Manual as this contains important
safety and operational information.
lDo not rely on this product or its sensors as a primary
means of life-support during or after a dive. Artemis is
designed as a survey tool, and not as an alternative or
replacement for dive-computers or similar apparatus.
lDo not submerge the console, unless the USB Blanking Plug
is fitted and the battery pressure valve has been checked.
lDo not use this product if any of the cabling, or housings of
its component parts appear to be damaged or
compromised for the ingress of water (where required to be
watertight).
When you have finished using your ArtemisPRO system, you
should:
lRemove any weed, or other detritus, that may have been
collected during its operation.
lWash the system in fresh water, if it has been used in salt-
water, to prevent corrosion and damage to rubber
mouldings.
lStore in a well ventilated location after use, to allow any
moisture on system components to evaporate before
closing the case.
For long-term storage (more than a couple of weeks):
lRemove the Battery Pod
lCharge batteries and store in a fully charged state
lEvery 6-12 months inspect system parts and recharge
batteries.

USB Cable
Use the USB Adapter Lead and USB Cable
to connect ArtemisPRO to a PC.

Navigate to “\\ARTEMISPRO”
You will need to install RNDIS drivers when
connecting a PC to ArtemisPRO for the first time.
See the manual for further details.
USB
Connector
Ensure the float cable is secured
to the diver or chassis and no
strain is placed on the connector.
Always replace the Chassis Cover and
USB Blanking Plug after use!
This stops the connector pins from getting
wet, preventing damage and corrosion.

Markers are geographic locations such as waypoints (defining a swim
route), targets, hazards or other points of interest.
Mission Files contains lists of markers that are relevant to a dive.
Mission Files can be created on a PC using NavPoint or on the console.
Use the highlighted

Replaying Dive-Logs
Ensure the internal Satellite receiver has a good fix
and a Mission File is selected if required.
Steps ƒ and „ allow the diver to choose the
starting location for dead-reckoning to track from.
At step … choose NO to use dead-reckoning.
Connect the external GNSS float (using the internal
GNSS receiver for continuous satellite navigation is
not recommended as larger position errors can
occur as the receiver is submerged)
At step … choose YES to allow satellite fixes to be
processed during the dive (even if a float isn't
connected).
