Connecting Transducers with Explora-Style Connectors
➤ To connect a transducer with an Explora-style connector
Turn the latch to the unlocked position and plug the transducer into the slot. To
lock, turn the transducer latch to the locked position, as shown in Figure 7-3.
➤ To remove a transducer with an Explora-style connector
Turn the latch to the unlocked position and pull the connector toward you.
Connecting OmniPlane III Transducers
Before you connect the OmniPlane III TEE transducer, be sure the tip and shaft
are straight. When you connect the transducer, it automatically recalibrates itself
to the 0-degree (horizontal plane) position. As with any array movement, the
motor makes a humming sound while recalibrating.
With TEE transducers, if the Calibration failed message appears, try unlocking
the transducer connector, straightening the tip and shaft, and then locking the
connector.
For more information on calibration, see “Calibration” on page 217.
NOTE
The T6H OmniPlane III transducer requires an adapter for use with the system.
Figure 7-2 shows the back and front of the OmniPlane Adapter.
➤ To connect the T6H transducer to the OmniPlane Adapter and to the
system
1. Plug the adapter into the system transducer connector with the latch side fac-
ing out.
2. Turn the latch on the adapter to lock the adapter to the system.
3. Plug the T6H transducer into the adapter.
4. Turn the latch 90 degrees clockwise to lock the transducer into the adapter.
