E.1 BLUETOOTH
The IDRONAUT Wireless Module allows bidirectional full duplex communications between the
OCEAN SEVEN 304Plus CTD and a PC (Desktop, Laptop) or PDA devices equipped with a
®
Bluetooth device. The IDRONAUT Wireless Module is formed by a Bluethoot
mounted inside the OCEAN SEVEN 304Plus CTD housing and is designed to provide an interface
conforming to the Bluethoot
The operating range of the adapter is specified in 100m although line of sight ranges of 300m can be
achieved. However, if a class-2 Bluetooth
Wireless Module, then the range will be limited to 10-20m as foreseen by class-2 devices.
The IDRONAUT Wireless Module allows instant wireless connectivity to any device supporting a
compatible Bluetooth
®
the Bluetooth devices registered on the network is guaranteed by means of the unique 8-digit PIN
code which identifies each IDRONAUT OCEAN SEVEN 304Plus CTD.
Features:
 Fully Bluetooth
 Wireless range of over 100m (330ft).
 Platform independent.
 Access security guaranteed by means of a unique 8-digit PIN code.
 Low power sleep mode when not in use.
 Integrated antenna.
 Power supply: powered by CTD.
IDRONAUT Windows programs like REDAS-5 and ITERM flawlessly operate the OCEAN SEVEN
304Plus through the Wireless Module as if it were connected through a USB cable.
E.1.1 How it works
The OCEAN SEVEN 304Plus Wireless Module is always powered (low power stand-by) and is ready
to accept wireless connections once the CTD is in ON condition and in AIR. Communications through
the OCEAN SEVEN 304Plus Bluetooth
session is established. Whenever the communication session is established, the CTD automatically and
autonomously switches the communications from the wired interface: RS232C/RS485 to the Wireless
Module. Afterwards, communication continues using the wireless module until the communication
session drops or the OCEAN SEVEN 304Plus CTD is switched off. The only limitation is that the CTD
cannot be used with both interfaces (wire and wireless) at the same time.
