VTX OPERATING MANUAL
© 2002 Design, 2014 Doc. No. 12-5382-r01 (10/24/14)
BLUETOOTH
The VTX contains a Bluetooth module that can be paired with a PC, Mac, or mobile device.
Bluetooth is initialized while the selection is highlighted on the Home Setup Menu (by S < 2 sec).
A Please Wait screen (Fig. 19A) will be displayed for 5 seconds followed by a screen displaying a countdown from 120 to 0
seconds (Fig. 19B).
If Bluetooth fails to initialize, a message will be displayed for 3 seconds instead of the countdown (Fig. 19C), then operation will
revert to the Home Setup Menu.
During the countdown, the unit is on allowing it to be paired with other Bluetooth devices.
> Mobile devices require Diverlog for Mac software that contains files required to discover and communicate with the Bluetooth
chip in the VTX. Likewise, laptops and desktops are only able to discover the VTX through Diverlog for Mac or the Ocean-
Log PC Interface program with the use of an optional dongle that can be obtained from an Oceanic Dealer.
> Once paired, a connected message is displayed (Fig. 19D) with the signal icons <<<< changing from white to green while
the Download, Upload, or Firmware Update operation is started.
> Once the VTX is unpaired from the PC, Mac, or mobile device, it will be necessary to pair/connect it through the software
before every download/upload.
> Pairing/connecting is not permanent and needs to be reestablished every time.
> This connection functions the same way the USB does in the Diverlog and OceanLog programs.
> If the 2 minute countdown elapses without action, operation will revert to the Home Setup Menu and the connection request
of the OceanLog, Diverlog, or iPhone/iPad version software will be cancelled.
> If the connection is cut using the software, operation will revert to the Home Setup Menu.
While downloading data, uploading settings, and updating firmware, corresponding screens are displayed indicating action in
progress (Fig. 19E, 19F, 19G).
