Asteri Navigation is proud to integrate with Diamond Maps, an app that is used by thousands of communities across the United States and Canada.
Diamond Maps allows for Maintenance Tracking, Editing, Data Management, Customization, and live Reporting. Follow this guide to seamlessly pair your Asteri Xi-Series GNSS receiver with Diamond Maps for unparalleled precision in data collection.
Launch the app store on your iOS device and search for DIAMOND MAPS OFFLINE.
Open the app and log in using your Username and Password that was given to you by DiamondMaps.
If you do not have an account with DiamondMaps, you can request a free trial.
Go to diamondmaps.com and select "start a free trial".
Reference DiamondMaps Support resource video #201 for instructions on adding some layers to your map which you will need prior to proceeding.
Once logged in, click the Download button to download one of your maps to your phone/tablet for offline use.
Then click on the map name to open the map within the app.
Turn on the Asteri receiver and place in clear view of the sky before you begin pairing to your iOS device.
This will allow the receiver to acquire a good position fix while you complete the pairing process.
On your iOS device (iPhone, iPad, etc..) go into the MAIN SETTINGS and ensure BlueTooth is ON.
Look for “ASTERI-(last 3 of SN)” in the list of Nearby Devices, and select it to connect.
It should now say “Connected” next to the receiver name.
You will know the receiver is paired when the BT light on the receiver turns ON.
If you are having trouble pairing, please refer to our support resource.
Click the Menu button and choose GPS Status
Leave the source datum set to WGS84 and if your Asteri is mounted on a pole enter the pole height in the box provided. These settings will be remembered.
Click the Select button next to GPS Source and choose your Asteri from the list.
If you see Lat, Lon, and Accuracy readings changing in the grey box then that confirms that Diamond Maps is connected to the Asteri.
