1 Introduction
Oudie 2 version 6.50
Company Naviter is dedicated to solving glider pilot's problems and Oudie 2 is one of the answers in this
challenge. Its intended use is helping glider, para-glider and hang glider pilots navigate during leisure,
cross country and competition flights.
Oudie 2 is a Personal Gliding Assistant which aims at providing everything a glider pilot needs in one
simple package. For this reason Oudie 2 is shipped with all cables which are required to connect to your
flight data recorder or GPS, a basic suction cup holder as well as car and wall chargers. The proven
Naviter software packages SeeYou Mobile and ConnectMe are preinstalled already. You can literally take
it out of the box and use it in your glider.
Oudie 2 works great in combination with other Naviter products such as SeeYou for the PC, ConnectMe,
Soaring Spot and others. It was designed to answer the question which was most frequently posted to us
as "Which device should I buy to run SeeYou Mobile?"
Naviter is a Slovenian based software company. We focus on highly featured and easy to use software
for glider pilots. The needs of glider pilots worldwide are what we are interested in.

Note for Oudie IGC: The Oudie IGC looks the same as the sketch above with the only difference that the MiniUSBconnector is
at the other end of the device and that a quick charger connector is located next to the miniUSB connector.
2.2 Turning Oudie 2 on and off
To turn the Oudie 2 ON press the power button for 1 second. In order to prevent turning on the device by
accident you have to press the confirm button in five seconds.
To turn the Oudie 2 OFF go to Menu > Next > Exit > Yes . Once SeeYou Mobile software is turned off ,
press the power button for 1 second while the device is running then choose the desired action:
Power Off: will stop the navigation and turn off the device. You should do this before long term
storage. Battery should be at least 50% full before you store it for a long time.
Sleep: will turn off the screen, GPS, Bluetooth and power down the processor. The navigation will be
put on hold and the battery will drain very slightly. After switching back on you are ready for navigation
in just a few seconds. You should use the Sleep function when you are waiting to launch and want to
conserve the battery for example. It's ok to use Sleep over night as well. The battery drain is
negligible.
Cancel: will do nothing and return focus to navigation.
To reboot press the reset button on the back of the device.

2.5 Learning to use Oudie 2
There is two recommended options to learn SeeYou Mobile before you get airborne.
File replay
This is by far the most efficient way to learn Oudie 2 software. What it does is it replays an already flown
flight and enables you to see the data you would have been looking at if you had Oudie 2 with you on the
particular flight.
In order to set this up, copy some of your flights from the desktop PC to your device. Then go to Menu >
Settings > Input , then change input to "File". Press the "..." button and choose a flight you wish to
replay. Alternatively you can go to Menu > Logbook > choose the flight you wish to replay > Tools >
Replay flight. Then use the buttons to change Waypoints, MacCready and pages. Tap on the screen to
see what happens and setup Navboxes to what you want them to be. Note that you can setup Navboxes
separately for each of the two Map pages.
Simulator
In the Simulator input mode, you can move the glider freely even without a prerecorded flight which
enables you to go places you haven't visited in the air yet. To move the glider, tap on it, then drag a line
out of the glider in the direction you want it to move. The longer the line, the faster it will go in the

specified direction.
Learning SeeYou Mobile on the ground will give you time to think about gliding, task and scenery in the
air rather than software.
Oudie 2 Simulator for desktop PC
In addition we have created a 100% functional copy of our software which runs on the desktop PC. This
program enables you to test all features of Oudie 2 before you decide that you would like to use it in
flight. To download the simulator for PC please visit our website: http://www.naviter.com/products/

2.6 Connecting to the GPS source
There are three basic ways to connect Oudie to the GPS source:
1. Built-in GPS
2. Serial cable connection to external GPS source
3. Bluetooth
You can choose which option you would like to use through Menu > Settings > Input dialog in SeeYou
Mobile:
6

Getting started 14
© 2003 - 2015 ... Naviter d.o.o.
1. Built-in GPS
The built-in GPS in Oudie is always on COM 1 > 4800bps. You can setup the Oudie to use internal GPS by
selecting Menu > Settings > Input > Internal GPS
2. Serial cable connection to external GPS source
The supplied Serial data cable enables you to connect to external data source such as your Variometer,
Flight data recorder, anti-collision device or similar. You should select Menu > Setting > Input > Serial
cable in order to use this option. You will need the manual from the other device in order to determine
the correct Port Settings such as Baud rate. You should always use COM 4 on Oudie for this type of
connection.
The supplied Data/Power cable has a RJ45 connector by default with standard IGC pinout. Several
converters are included in the box which enable you to connect to flight recorders with RJ12 or DB9
connectors. Special cables are also available as an accessory for a very simple direct connection to some
specific flight recorders such as LX 7007, CAI 302, LX 1600 etc. Please refer to the chapter Cables and
Converters of this manual to learn more about how to connect your Oudie with different GPS devices.
It is very important to understand that the supplied Serial cable must be connected to 12 V direct current
source (such as your glider's battery) in order to work.

Oudie 215

3. Bluetooth
Another way to receive external data source is to connect through Bluetooth. Go to Menu > Settings >
Input > Bluetooth to pair Bluetooth device with Oudie:
1. press Lookup on Oudie (only devices which advertize SPP protocol are displayed)
2. Select the device you would like to connect to
3. Press "Pair..."
4. enter the PIN of the device you are connecting to
5. connection should be established on COM 5 (make sure the Baude rate is correct)
You should refer to the manual of the other device in order to find out about its settings such as Pairing
key, baud rate, availability of the serial communication protocols etc. Once the devices are paired and
serial communication is established the data flow starts immediately.
K6 Bluetooth is a special protocol which should be used when connecting to the K6 Bluetooth device
because it enables even more features than the standard Bluetooth protocol.
2.6.1 Cables and converters
Oudie is delivered with a variety of cables and converters which enable you to connect Oudie to your
almost any logger "out of the box":
1. Power and data cable
It provides power to Oudie and (optionally) to the device which is
connected to the RJ45 connector.
It has three connectors:
. mini USB connector must be connected to Oudie
. black and red cable must be connected to 12V power supply
(red is 12V, black is ground). Allowed input voltage is 10-30V.
. RJ45 connector with standard IGC pinout where
pins 1 and 2 = +12V (anything between 10-30V is ok)
pin 5 = Receive to Oudie
pin 6 = Transmit from Oudie
pins 7 and 8 = Ground
Use directly with these devices: Swiss Flarm, Volkslogger, K6 Mux, VW1150
2. RJ 45 Female/Female Gender Changer
This connector can be used for extending the 8-wires cable using another RJ45 connector (for example
ethernet cable). It can also be used to connect RJ12 connector with 6-wires cable which can be used for
data communication with Colibri, LX 20/2000, MiniBox, RedBox and other devices using RJ12 connectors.
