5.4 Topside Processor Troubleshooting Guides
Should some operational or performance problems occur with the 4200 Series High Definition Dual-
frequency Side Scan Sonar System, it may be possible to correct them using the troubleshooting guides in
the following pages. For the 4200 Rack Mount, 4200-P Portable, and 701-DL Topside Processors, tabular
troubleshooting guides are provided in T
ABLE 5-1, TABLE 5-2, and TABLE 5-3, respectively.
These troubleshooting guides identify some symptoms that could occur, and present one or more possible
causes, along with the recommended corrective action for each issue. Perform the corrective action for
any given symptom in the order of possible causes, which generally corresponds to the degree of
troubleshooting difficulty, from the simple to the more complex.
Detailed information for the Tow Vehicle is provided in 5.5
TOW VEHICLE TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE.
Before proceeding with any corrective action, verify that the topside processor is plugged into an
appropriate AC or DC power source and that the processor is switched on.
NOTE: Be sure to also verify all the cables on the topside processor, and
the tow vehicle are mated and are not loose or damaged. Most causes of
operational or performance problems are a result of poor connections.
