FAQs
What are the power requirements for NavDive?
NavDive is powered by 4 standard AAA alkaline batteries located in
the diver console. Based on our experience, a set of batteries
can last up to 15 dives.
Is the GPS receiver cable replaceable?
Yes -- the cable has a waterproof plug on the diver console unit for
easy removal / replacement.
Why do you offer different GPS receiver cable lengths?
We have customers that work in shallower depths, so we offer a 50
foot cable to reduce the overall weight and amount of cable that
needs to be managed on the spool by the diver. It is also less
expensive. For diver's that operate deeper, we have longer
cable options to meet that need.
What is the maximum operating depth for NavDive?
The system is warranted for operation to 100 FFW.
Is the data saved on the SD memory card usable by my
other software applications?
Usually. The data files consumed and produced by NavDive are
in ASCII CSV format and can be used in almost any software
application that can import a CSV file (including Microsoft Excel).
If you have a unique data format requirement, please contact us.
What's the best way to mount the GPS receiver to my flag
float?
Because there are many different flag floats used by divers, it will
be up to you to determine the best mounting solution. The GPS
receiver does contain a magnetic base that simplifies mounting in
some installations. There are basically three things to keep
in mind when mounting your receiver -- 1) Make sure that the
receiver is out of the water, 2) Make sure that the receiver has a
clear view of the sky, and 3) Make sure that some sort of cable
strain relief be provided so the diver won't pull the receiver off
the float when moving underwater.
