3.8 Pre-Deployment Tests
Pre-deployment checks should be performed before the tow vehicle is deployed and after the system is
activated. Pre-Deployment checks involve:
1. Listening for the transmitted pulses from the transducers on the tow vehicle
2. Tapping the fiberglass shell with a hand or, gently, with a screwdriver handle near the hydrophone
arrays while observing the Waterfall Display in DISCOVER, ensuring it plays back and navigation is
present. DISCOVER is shown in F
IGURE 3-5. An example Tap Test is shown in FIGURE 3-9.
NOTE: See EdgeTech DISCOVER Sub-Bottom software manual, 0019800,
