Water Test
It is a good practice to test the VR4-UWM’s detection and modem performance in the water at your particular
site before undertaking a permanent deployment. Local conditions can have a significant impact on acoustic
signal propagation and detection, as can mooring fixtures and other co-located equipment that might interfere.
We encourage you to contact VEMCO to discuss the best ways to conduct on-site testing.
