Transducer installation
Note:
The upper part of the
Echosounder setup
dialogue is used to
define and set up the echo sounder transducer(s) used on the
PI44. This operation is only carried out once, and that is during
the system installation. DO NOT ADJUST these settings during
normal operation of the echo sounder, as incorrect settings may
result in damage to the PI44 and/or the transducer(s).
For more detailed information on transducer installation, consult
the PI44 installation manual.
Select transducer:
Enter the type and main parameters of each
transducer connected to the PI44 system.
Transducer type:
Enter transducer type. You can leaf through a
number of predefined transducer types, or define your own.
Note that some of the predefined types are “dual” transducers,
which means that both transceiver outputs ports (Echo1 and
Echo2) will be used.
