Setting up the H-ADCP System
Use this section to connect the H-ADCP to a computer and establish communications. Install the RDI
Tools software in order to communicate with the H-ADCP.
To set up the H-ADCP:
1. Connect the I/O cable to the H-ADCP. Do so by pushing straight in against the connector. Roll the
retaining strap over the connector.
Place a light amount of dry silicone lubricant spray on the connector pins (rubber portion only).
This will make it easier to connect or remove the I/O cable and dummy plug. See
for details.
2. Attach the I/O cable to your computer's communication port. The standard communications set-
tings are RS-232, 9600-baud, no parity, 8 data bits and 1 stop bit.
If the computer uses RS-422 communications, connect the RS-232 to RS-422 adapter.
3. Connect the AC power adapter to the I/O cable.
