7. Check COM1 and set the correct baud rate for that device using the dropdown menu shown in
blue, as shown in F
IGURE 8-16. When the correct baud rate is set, the State should say OK, and
Errors should not be increasing, as shown in F
IGURE 8-16, circled in green. The correct data string
should also be scrolling in the lower part of the window, as shown in F

12. Check to make sure sensors' usage percentages are well below 80%, as shown in
FIGURE 8-22,
circled in purple. If they are not, increase the sensor’s baud rate. Change baud rate under Serial
Port Information as done in steps 6 and 7. Check Status again; otherwise, sonar will report errors.

14. Finally, close the Sonar - 192.9.0.101 - Remote Desktop Connection window.
NOTE: If this window is left open during data acquisition, the user may
experience a very slow computer. This is because the remote desktop
application uses a large amount of the link capacity to stay open. So it is
always a good idea to close the remote desktop application when finished
with the configurations.
