Start Up and Shut Down
Start Up
To Start Artemis Dashboard
1. Ensure that the local station is powered on.
2. Double-click on the Artemis Dashboard icon.
(Or run the Artemis Dashboard application from:
Start > All Programs > Guidance Marine Ltd > Artemis > Artemis Dashboard).
3. The Dashboard display screen will appear. If the sensor is currently suspended, the
main part of the screen will be greyed out. Click on the Resume button in the side bar
in order for the sensor to begin transmitting and for the results to be displayed on the
screen. If the sensor was already transmitting, any remote station to which it is locked
will be displayed straight away.
Shut Down
To Disconnect, Exit or Suspend
(Click on the Guidance button in the lower left corner of the screen. This reveals the
Guidance Home Menu, which contains different sets of buttons depending whether
the Dashboard is in command, and whether it is tracking a remote station. Buttons are
explained below.
•
Disconnect - Ceases communications between the local station and the Dashboard
computer. The local station is unaffected and if tracking is in progress, it will
continue.
•
Exit - Closes the Dashboard without affecting the sensor.
•
Suspend – Only available when the Dashboard is in command and the local station is
not tracking a remote station. Places the local station into a ‘sleep mode’ in which it
ceases to transmit. The Dashboard remains active and connected to the sensor ready
for operations. This mode is suitable for use when travelling between locations.
•
Suspend and Exit – Same as Suspend, except that it closes the Dashboard
program.
