SeaHub
In essence, this table summarises one-to-one wiring between the Sonar water-block connector and the
SeaHub port C or D.
To enable Port C or D for an ‘ArcNet’ Sonar connection…
1) Recall the 6 x USB Serial Ports that were
allocated in Device Manager after the
SeaHub was connected and its drivers
installed. Refer to sections 4.2.2 & 4.2.3 on
page 17 onwards.
2) In “Seanet Setup”, click on ‘Utilities’ | ‘Com
Setup’ to open the Channel Setup page
(see right). Ensure that the SeaHub “Aif”
interface is enabled and allocated to the
correct Com Port number (referring back to
the 6 x USB Serial Ports allocated). Note:
The ArcNet interface of Ports C & D or for
the ‘Aif ArcNet’ port is via the SeaHub
connection port and unlike a Serial Sonar
connection (see previous few pages) a 2
nd
“Aif” port does not need to be added.
3) For the ArcNet Sonar connection, ensure
the SeaHub “Aif” connection port is enabled
and the Node 252 SeaHub appears in the
‘Seanet Setup’ table.
SeaHub Port : COM Port = Base + 4.
In the Channel Setup table, refer to the
‘Type’ column for SeaHub Port description,
i.e. “SeaHubMain” = Main PC USB
Connection Port.
i.e. In previous example (see Section 4.2.2), the
SeaHub was installed with 6 x Serial Ports from
COM 9 to 14.
Therefore;
For SeaHub connection, Base + 4 = 13.
