9.4 Test of ZPulse

DCS 4420/4830/4520/4930
We recommend that you perform a function test of the sensor operating in air to verify the sensor readings.
Sensor readings when operating in air:
• The Abs Speed will give a variable reading from measurement to measurement.
• The Direction will normally give variable readings.
• North and East (Speed) will give variable readings.
• The Heading (compass heading) depends on the sensor orientation. Placing transducer 1 towards magnetic
north will give a value close to 0 or 360˚.
• Tilt X and Tilt Y depend on the sensor tilt. If the sensor is placed horizontal, both should be close to 0˚.
• The SP Std will normally give a reading below 20 cm/s.
• The Strength will be close to -70dB.
• The Ping count depends on the ping setting.
