5.6. Other Options
The Echosounder can be set to be free-running or interrogated. In free running mode it will
output constantly as soon as power is applied, while in interrogated mode it will only output
when it is sent a 'Z' character from the surface control computer.
The "no return echo" can be set to either 0m or 50m. This means that if an echo comes back
which is beyond the acceptable range the Echosounder will return either a reading of 0m or
50m to the surface computer.
