Connect the
transducer cable to
the Deck box
connector marked
XDCR
and twist the
locking collar into
place.
STEP 6
Connect the Benthos power cable (see below) to the PWR connector on the Deck
Box. Do NOT turn on the power to the Deck Box yet.
Vessel power supplies can be noisy! We recommend you
charge the internal battery beforehand and skip this step
when working on a vessel. See the Benthos manual for
charging details.
STEP 5
The Power and Transducer connectors on the Deck Box
are “keyed” so they can only be attached in the proper
orientation. Line up the tabs on the cable connector with
the gaps on the box connector.
Turn on the Benthos Deck Box.
STEP 8
TIP:
Adjust the speaker volume on the Benthos Deck Box (see the Benthos
manual for detail) to listen to the 2-way acoustic communication.
Use the serial cable to connect the computer to
COM 1
on
the Deck Box. If your PC does not have a serial input
connector, use the DB-9 to USB
adapter (may not appear as shown
below; FTDI drivers may be
required – see section 6.9).
