3.1.7 Establishing Communications
The default serial settings are RS232, 9600, N81.
If the ISS360 is tilted from vertical to upside down 3 times within the first 10 seconds of
power up then it will temporarily configure the serial interface to the default (RS232, 9600,
N81) and output an ASCII message displaying the settings.
Note:
When the sonar is power cycled following this process the serial interface setting will
revert back to the last saved configuration.
3.1.8 Connector Mating
When mating the cable to the SubConn connector, to maximise the life of the connector, it
is important to observe the following:
•
Always apply grease before mating, Molykote 44 Medium grease must be used.
•
Disconnect by pulling straight, not at an angle.
•
Do not pull on the cable and avoid sharp bends at cable entry.
•
Do not over-tighten the bulkhead nut.
Do not expose the connector to extended periods of heat or direct sunlight. If a connector
becomes very dry, it should be soaked in fresh water before use.
3.1.9 Connector Cleaning
General cleaning and removal of any accumulated sand or mud on a connector should be
performed using spray based cleaner (for example Isopropyl Alcohol).
New grease must be applied again prior to mating.
