The ADCP is now set for the new baud rate. (The baud rate will stay at these settings until you
changed back with the CB-command.)
Configuring all Secondary Instruments: Com 2, Com 3, Com 4 Baud Rate of 4800 Kbps
The baud rate of your GPS, echosounder, or other secondary device must match the Com 2, 3, or 4
baud rate. When you are setting an instrument’s baud rate you are setting its RS232 data rate.
Note:
If using an Oceanscience supplied instrument, the baud rate has been pre-set to the correct
rate.
When instrument set up is complete, install both instruments on the Riverboat (see the Riverboat
Assembly Instructions).
Remote Transceiver Setup
The ADCP is now ready to communicate with the laptop through the HydroLink transceivers.
Place the remote transceiver in the Riverboat as shown in figure 2. Attach the antenna cable to the
TNC connector. Connect the ADCP harness to the radio, then the depth sounder and/or GPS as
shown in figure 2. The 8-pin connectors are
keyed
and will only attach to the transceiver when
oriented correctly.
Do not force the connectors.
Slide the transceiver into the compartment as
shown in figure 3 with a thin foam spacer between the radio and the boat hull.
