Ensure the system has been correctly installed and configured in accordance with
Section 3.2, “Installation” of this manual. Apply power to the MicronNav100 Interface Hub
and click the
Seanet Pro
icon on the desktop to run the MicronNav application software,
select Applications from the top menu bar of the Seanet Pro window and select the required
application from the list, Sonar Nav will display the Sonar and Navigation display and would
be used when operating in Responder mode, Nav will display only the Navigation display and
would be used when operating in Transponder mode, if Video is also required on the display
then select Sonar Nav Video for Responder mode and Nav Video for Transponder mode.
Once the display has updated with the selected application the MicronNav must be correctly
configured to address the sub-sea Modem Heads being used with the system - select
MicronNav from the top menu bar and select Setup Application to open the
Nav Setup
panel
(if this menu option is not displayed click inside the Navigation window first), then check the
appropriate check boxes for the Heads to be addressed - i.e. Responder R0 for Responder
Head, Transponder Selection T1 for Transponder T1, T2 for Transponder T2, etc., or B16,
B17 and B18 for remote beacons. The
Remote Beacon Selection
