5.2 Performing Pre-deployment Checks
The pre-deployment checks should be performed after the system is activated and before the towfish is
deployed. These checks involve verifying that data can be recorded and played back in Discover; rubbing
one’s hand on the transducer arrays while observing the sonar display in the Discover Main window;
verifying correct heading, pitch, and roll outputs; and zeroing the pressure sensor.
1. Activate your System, using the specific instructions detailed above.
CAUTION! Do not allow the transducer arrays on the towfish to
continuously transmit in the air for an extended period, as damage to the
transducer arrays could occur.
2. In Discover, click the Towfish Control (4205MPMT) or Sidescan Control (4205 Tri-Frequency) tab
in the Lower Control panel, shown in
FIGURE 5-1 AND 5-2.
