www.vemco.pl
Although light and portable, NaviTEK II is robust and has been designed to operate in a protected outdoor
working environment.
To ensure reliable operation:
Avoid very high or low temperatures - NaviTEK II is designed to operate between 0°C and +40°C,
although you should only charge the battery between +10°C and +30°C. You can store the unit
safely between -20°C and +70°C.
To avoid damage, we recommend that you keep NaviTEK II in its carrying case when you are not
using it.
Do not use solvents, strong detergents or abrasive materials to clean NaviTEK II. Use only
cleaning agents approved for use on ABS and polycarbonate plastics.
When your NaviTEK II has reached the end of its life you must dispose of the complete unit in accordance
with local environmental regulations.
When using NaviTEK II, always take basic safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and
injury to persons. These include the following:
When connecting to the line, special care must be taken as high voltages may be present on the
line and there may be a danger of electrocution.
Avoid using the tester during an electrical storm - there is a remote risk of electric shock by
lightning.
Use only the mains electricity adaptor supplied with your NaviTEK II.
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT. Light output from the fiber optic port can damage eyesight even though it is
invisible. Never stare into open optical ports or the end of a fiber to see if light is coming out.
Connector Safety
The following connectors conform to EN60950 SELV safety status:
RJ-45 Ethernet port.
USB port.
DC inlet port.
151810 Iss 1 NaviTEK II
Page 4 User Guide
www.vemco.pl
All models of NaviTEK II can be powered from:
A rechargeable power module,
Directly from power connected to the DC inlet built in to the power module.
From an alkaline battery pack.
The type of module or pack supplied as standard depends on the model purchased.
Power Module Management
A fully charged power module will support up to five hours of heavy, continuous use. For maximum life of
the power module it is recommended to discharge it fully and then recharge it fully at least once a month.
The power module is not user-serviceable. When it has reached the end of its life, contact your local
IDEAL representative for service.
Power Module Recharging
The power module can be fully recharged in three hours with the NaviTEK II switched ON or OFF. To
recharge the power module, connect the supplied power adaptor to the DC inlet. For convenience the
power module may be removed from, or left attached to, the tester for charging. The Power LED next to
the DC inlet glows green to show that the battery is being charged, and flashes green to show that it is not
being charged. The power module’s charge state is indicated at FULL, 2/3, 1/3 and EMPTY by the
graphical power meter shown in the information bar at the top of the display.
Fig 1 Power indications
Battery Pack
The battery pack accepts four replaceable AA alkaline cells. These cells cannot be recharged.

Switching ON and OFF
To switch the tester ON, press and hold the Power button. Wait until the home screen is visible on the
display; the tester is ready for use.
To switch the tester OFF, press and hold the Power for approximately 1/2 second, a shutdown message is
displayed on the screen. The currently stored setup is saved. If the tester does not switch OFF within five
seconds, see Master Reset.
Power Saving
Power saving preferences are selected from SETUP>SYSTEM>PREF. Auto off can be Disabled (tester
remains ON indefinitely), or set to switch the tester OFF after three, 10 or 30 minutes of inactivity. The
backlight can be set to Always On, or to dim to 50% brightness after three minutes of inactivity. Note that
when mains power is connected the display is always on full brightness and the tester remains ON
indefinitely.
Master Reset
In the unlikely event of a system lock-up which prevents the tester from being switched OFF, it may be
necessary to perform a master reset. This will not delete any stored data.
Remove the power module or battery pack to access a small aperture in the NaviTEK II (Fig 2).
Insert a paper clip into the reset hole and press the internal reset switch.

NaviTEK II PLUS and PRO provide a system that enables the storage and organization of test results and
statistics. Test results can be exported via a USB key and used to produce reports.
The two elements of this storage and organization system are Jobs and Results. A Job is a named
repository for a collection of Results. A Result is a group of test results. It may contain the saved results
of one or several tests. Therefore, a Job may be understood as a folder, a Result as the file(s) held within
that folder. NaviTEK II can store up to five Jobs each containing 50 Results.
At any time, one Job is always ‘active’. Test results are saved to the active Job. Any existing Job can be
activated, at any time, via the menu on the Jobs Options screen. The currently active Job is indicated in
the information bar shown at the top of the display.
Every time test results are saved, they are saved to a Result which is assigned a sequential number. In
turn, each Result is allocated to the currently active Job.
The structure in which Jobs, Results and test results are stored is shown in Fig 38.
Fig 38 Example of Job storage structure
When creating a new Job, you can store:
The customer’s contact, address and telephone details. This information will appear on reports
that are compiled from exported test results.
A prefix (relates to all associate Results). It will appear at the front of every Result number, e.g.
ABC0001, where ABC is the user-defined prefix and 0001 is the system-allocated Result number.
The prefix must be an alphanumeric string (no spaces or punctuation). Adding a prefix for Result
numbers is optional.
A Job title (user defined). Enables Jobs to be named. The Job title must be an alphanumeric
string (no spaces or punctuation).

From the home screen select the JOBS icon. The display will show the Job List screen, Fig 39. The Job
List screen lists all currently stored Jobs. The column ‘Tests’ indicates the number of Results saved to
each Job. The column ‘Pass %’ indicates the percentage of the total number of tests in all Results
allocated to a Job that have passed.
Change the active Job
In the example of a Job List screen shown at Fig 39, the active Job is ‘Acme’ as indicated on the display’s
information bar. To change the active Job, scroll to the Job required (e.g. My Job) and press the soft key
OPTIONS (F2); the display will show the Options screen, Fig 40. Highlight the ACTIVATE icon and press
ENTER.

From the home screen select the JOBS icon. The display will show the Job List screen.
Highlight the Job to be exported and press the soft key OPTIONS (F2). The display will show the
Options screen.
Highlight the TO USB icon and press Enter. The dialogue ‘Result saved to USB’ appears.
Alternatively, an individual Result from a Job may be exported:
Insert a USB key into the NaviTEK II USB port.
From the home screen select the JOBS icon. The display will show the Job List screen.
Highlight the Job required and press ENTER. The display shows all Results contained within the
Job.
Highlight the Result you require and press the soft key TO USB (F3). The dialogue ‘Result saved
to USB’ appears.
Test results and statistics are now saved on the USB key and can be viewed as a report on any PC
installed with Microsoft Internet Explorer™ version 8, Mozilla Firefox™ version 9 or other suitable browser.
Two files are saved to the USB key, the test results are stored as an XML document and a report template
is stored as an XSLT file. Open the XML document to view the report.
