Determining if the System is RT or SC
If you do not remember how the system was last configured:
Review the
Touch Sensor Response / System Beeps and Real-Time Touch Sensor Response / System
Beeps sections.
•
If you hear one long beep when power is applied and after 10 to 15 seconds later a second short
beep and touching the Touch Sensor makes the system beep again; the system is configured for
Self-Contained (firmware version 47.xx is installed). Connect to the system using the WLAN and
ReadyV.
•
If you hear one long beep when power is applied and after 10 to 15 seconds later a second short
beep but touching the Touch Sensor does not respond; the system is configured for Real-Time
Ethernet (firmware version 66.xx is installed). Connect to the system using the Ethernet and
Sentinel V RT Utilities.
•
If you only hear one long beep when power is applied, and touching the Touch Sensor does not
make the system beep, the system is configured for Real-Time (firmware version 66.xx is in-
stalled). Connect to the system using the serial cable and Sentinel V RT Utilities.
•
If you only hear one long beep when power is applied, and touching the Touch Sensor does not
make the system beep, and the system does not have a serial connector, then open the system
and try communications Using Board-Level Ethernet Connection .
The Sentinel V Self-Contained system MUST have a serial connector on the end-cap and the
user MUST have the 73D-3112-xxx underwater cable and AC power adapter to be able to
switch to the Real-Time mode. If the system does not have the serial connector, underwater
cable and AC power adapter, once the 66.xx firmware is loaded, there is no easy way to
communicate with the system (see Using Board-Level Ethernet Connection ). Once version
66.xx firmware is installed, the touch sensor is disabled.
Troubleshooting Wireless Issues
If there is a communications issue and the beeps are heard when power is applied to the ADCP:
•
Review the Wireless Connection Common Issues section.
• Review the Touch Sensor Response / System Beeps and Real-Time Touch Sensor Response /
System Beeps sections. Clean the ADCP as needed. If you only hear the one long beep and not
the second short beep, the system may be configured for Real-Time. Try connecting to the sys-
tem using the serial cable.
• Check if a red X or yellow triangle ( ) appears over the wireless network icon in the status
bar, the computer reports there is no wireless connection, or a message appears saying there are
no wireless networks available. If any of these conditions apply, click the wireless icon and right-
click on the connection and select Connect .
•
Make sure the ADCP is within the wireless range of the computer (typically within 100 feet). Try
moving the ADCP closer to the computer. If there is a wall between the ADCP and the computer,
try placing the ADCP and computer in the same room.
•
Make sure there are no other devices interfering with the ADCP, such as microwave ovens, cord-
less phones, or other wireless devices.
