OUTBACK NAVIGATION INFORMATION SYSTEM
The Outback Navigation Information System (ONIS) can be updated from the WWW or the micro SD card.
If the ONIS is left powered on (in a controlled environment), then the ONIS will automatically update the Waypoints, Tracklogs and Geofence data at midnight when the the ONIS commences the reboot sequence (N/A in Personal Mode).
Note: For the auto update to function:
1. The "Allow Update WWW Data" must be set to "Auto" by the owner.
2. The WiFi SSID must be configured.
3. The ONIS must be in WiFi range.
All ONIS data can be updated using an owner configured micro SD card.
The owner can configure the master ONIS and then export the features, settings and data to the external micro SD card. This card can then be moved to other user ONIS units which will then be populated with identical settings, features and data, when the user ONIS is started.
The following can be exported by the owner to the micro SD card:
a. Owner Features and Options
b. Geofence Messages & Speed Alerts
c. OziExplorer Waypoints & Tracklogs
d. Video and Help Information
e. Startup Tips and Message
f. Owner Logo
g. WWW update links
h. Time Zone
i. WiFi SSID
i. Owner custom message text colour
NOTE:
1. The micro SD card update will overwrite all existing data and settings.
2. GPSIS app updates are only available via the WWW update menu.
3. This function is NOT available in "User Mode".
WWW updates can be performed from the System & Settings menu.
Note:
1. The "Allow Update WWW Data" must be set to "Manual" by the owner.
2. The WiFi SSID must be configured.
3. The ONIS must be in WiFi range.
NOTE:
"WWW Data Update" from this menu is NOT available in "Personal Mode".
The three main GPSIS apps used in the ONIS can be update from the GPSIS web site.
Note:
1. The WiFi SSID must be configured.
2. The ONIS must be in WiFi range.
3. Only newer app versions can be installed.
ONIS data can be updated using an owner configured WWW cloud file server.
The owner can populate the file server with data from the owner master ONIS.
The following data can be downloaded from the owner file server:
a. Geofence Messages & Speed Alerts
b. OziExplorer Waypoints & Tracklogs
c. iGO POI
d. Help Information
e. Startup Tips and Message
Note:
1. The WWW update will overwrite all existing data.
2. Features and option updates can only be imported using the micro SD card.
3. Video data is NOT able to be updated using the WWW due to size limitations of the large video files.
NOTE:
This function is NOT available in "Personal Mode".
When the ONIS OziExplorer App is started, the user will be prompted with an update menu for 5 seconds where they can choose to update the data.
Th user will be able to choose from "UPDATE SELECTED WAYPOINTS & TRACKLOGS" and "UPDATE DEFAULT DATA", if the WWW download links are configured correctly.
"UPDATE GPSIS DEFAULT DATA" includes Waypoints and Tracklogs that GPSIS have created using public information and is provided to the customer as is and at no cost.
Examples of GPSIS default Waypoints include overtaking lanes & parking bays for WA.
Note:
1. The WiFi SSID must be configured.
2. The ONIS must be in WiFi range.
3. The WWW update will overwrite all existing data.
The owner can configure the WWW cloud file server with up to 98 different data sets for the Waypoints and Tracklogs.
The user can then choose to download a data set for their specific needs.
e.g.
The owner can configure a data set and upload to the owner cloud file server.
The user can then download this data set from a remote location.
Note:
1. The downloaded WWW data set will be loaded into the ONIS when it startups, and will be replaced by the default data set when it it closes.
2. The last loaded WWW selected data set remains in the ONIS until it is overwritten by another downed data set.
3. The user can manually load the current saved WWW selected data set at any time.
4. The first data set (01) is reserved for the owner default data.
NOTE:
This function is NOT available in "Personal Mode".
Above could be an example of a spotter in a aerial surveillance aircraft capturing fire front Tracklog data and Waypoints and then uploading to the owner cloud file server.
Ground crews can then download this data and display on their individual ONIS units.
The time delay in the ground crew obtaining the data is only limited by the time to capture the data and then an additional 3-5 minutes for the data to be uploaded to the cloud file server by the spotter (whilst the aircraft is still airborne).
This data set can be uploaded to any of the the 98 data set options.
Radio or phone communication to the ground crew can advise which data set to load into the ONIS.
Above could be an example of stranded person, with a spotter in a aerial surveillance aircraft capturing the best access route to reach the stranded person.
The spotter can then upload the data to the owner cloud file server.
First responders on the ground can then download this data and display on their individual ONIS units.
The time delay in the first responders obtaining the data is only limited by the time to capture the data and then an additional 3-5 minutes for the data to be uploaded to the cloud file server by the spotter (whilst the aircraft is still airborne).
This data set can be uploaded to any of the the 98 data set options.
Radio or phone communication to the first responders can advise which data set to load into the ONIS.
