d Make sure that all parameters in the list are shown with a check mark inside a
green circle.
5 Make sure there is no acoustic or electrical interference in the sonar view.
A
Make sure that no concentric rings appear. These rings could be caused by
other acoustic devices or power-line noise. Rings with black gaps between
them could also be due to excess Ethernet traffic when using a shared network.
B
Make sure that there isn’t a bright radial line originating from the Sonar Head.
This line could be caused by thruster noise. If the radial line appears with the
Sonar Head out of water, it could indicate noise in the power line or a fault in
the Sonar Head.
C
Make sure that the bottom appears across the entire width of the sonar view.
If the edges appear weak, and profile points are not detected at the edges,
make sure there are no obstructions preventing the Sonar Head’s receive. (for
example, proximity to the vessel hull/keel).

Testing the Sonar Head telemetry
You can run a telemetry test to make sure the link between the Sonar Head and the
Flexview software is working correctly.
Prerequisites
• For this test you will need the Sonar Head connected to the Sonar Processor and
powered on.
• The Flexview software must be running.
• This procedure is made for the Microsoft ® 64-bit Windows 10 operating system. It
is assumed that you are familiar with the Windows ® operating systems, computer
technology, and interface principles.
Context
This procedure explains how to measure the available bandwidth on a 100Base-TX
(100 Mbps) Ethernet link. The same procedure can be used for a 10BaseT link by
selecting the appropriate sonar application and adjusting the Ethernet adapter settings
to the corresponding link speed.
