The error velocity for an H-ADCP is equal to the difference between the Y velocities of beams one and two
and the Y velocity of beam three (Error = V1*E1 + V2*E2 + V3*E3).
PT - Built-In Tests
Purpose
Sends/displays results of H-ADCP system diagnostic test.
Format
PTnnn
Range
nnn = 0 to 200 (PT0 = Help menu)
Recommended Setting.
Use as needed.
Description
These diagnostic tests check the major H-ADCP modules and signal paths. Most of the
tests give their final results in the format;
xxxxxxxxxx TEST RESULTS = $hhhh ... rrrr
Where
xxxxxxxxxx
= Module or path being tested
$hhhh
= Hexadecimal result code ($0 = PASS; see individual tests for description of bit results)
rrrr
= Overall test result (“PASS” or “FAIL”)
PT Test Results Error Codes
To find what bits are set when an error occurs, use the following tables.

To convert error code $32CF (note: the dollar sign “$” signifies hexi-decimal), convert 32CF to binary.
Error code $32CF has the following bits set: 13, 12, 9, 7, 6, 3, 2, 1, 0.

PT0 - Help
Displays the test menu (shown below). As implied by the NOTE, adding 100 to the test number repeats
the test continually until the H-ADCP receives a <BREAK>. Sending PT200 runs all tests. PT300 runs all
tests continually until the H-ADCP receives a <BREAK>.
