1.5. Run Some Simple Tests
We now want to run just a few simple tests to give us some confidence that the system is func-
tioning “right out of the box”.
_
If you have not already done so, install at least the SonUtils program (§
1.3
).
_
Interconnect the system as described in the previous section (§
1.4
).
_
As applicable, apply power to the RiverSurveyor system.
_
Start the SonUtils program (
Start|Programs|SonTek Software|SonUtils*
). *Note: The
SonUtils program shortcut may contain a release number; for example,
SonUtils4
.
_
If necessary, set up the
Communications
parameters within SonUtils – typically
COM1
,
Baud
Rate 9600
mode (
Figure 1-3
). If you need more information about setting the communica-
tions parameters, use
Help | SonUtils Help
and refer to the section on
Communications
.
_
If necessary, set the
Input Type
to
Command
mode. Note: At this point, we only want to test
the ADP, so we will not test any other communication mode (e.g.,
Radio
).
_
Click
Break
(or press
Alt+B
) to send the initialization (i.e., wake-up) command to the ADP.
You should see a copyright/initialization message similar to the one shown in
Figure 1-3
.
