Trigger Mode
If applicable, set the
Trigger mode
to synchronize the Sonar Head with another
acoustic device (such as a second Flexview Sonar Head or a sub-bottom
profiler). Set the trigger mode to
Master to send out a sync pulse so that the
other acoustic device can be triggered. Set the trigger mode to Slave to be
triggered by the sync pulse from the other device. For the Flexview, the default
is set to
Master .
•
Time Sync Mode
Your computer can keep accurate time by using a GPS or network time server
as the master time source. When connecting to the Sonar Head, it takes two
minutes to synchronize the time to within five milliseconds. The Flexview
software will then continuously keep the Sonar Head clock in sync for the
duration of the session. The status bar shows the time synchronization status.
