Info

Network TransmitIf ProScan is connected to both a sonar and a network, click the transmit button to beginstreaming data to the network. See the section on network configuration section later in thismanual for more information. If the UPD protocol is configured, data begins transmittingautomatically. If the TCP protocol is configured, ProScan waits for a TCP client to connect.New FileIf recording is enabled, ProScan records all broadcasting data to an automatically generated.SON file. To split recorded data between files, click the new file button while ProScan is setto record. A new .SON file will be created, and the remainder of the data will be storedthere.NOTE: Data files are automatically stored in C:\Documents and Settings\Username\.This can be changed in the Recording Setup dialog.Image CalibrationThis will display a dialog that will allow the user to adjust the sound speed to be used. Thisvalue will also be saved in the settings dialog. See the Image Calibration section later in thischapter for more information.Length MeasurementAfter clicking the length measurement icon in the toolbar, click the location where you wantto start the measurement. ProScan then draws a dotted line between that point and themouse cursor. Click a second time to freeze the current measurement. A third click sets thestarting point for a new measurement.The length of the dotted line is displayed just to the left of the cursor location in the lowerright of the ProScan window. To clear the measurement line, press the Measurementbutton a second time or right-click the mouse.Cursor LocationThe current range (meters) and bearing (degrees) of the cursor is displayed in the lowerright corner of the ProScan window.©BlueView Technologies Page | 24
Pan / Tilt ControlsProScan displays the sonar position control on the right side of the screen.The status of the communication link with the Pan/Tilt is shown in a color-coded display. Agreen display indicates a good link. A red display indicates that the link has failed andcommunications with the Pan/Tilt have been lost. A display that alternates between greenand red indicates a link with intermittent faults. The cabling and connections between thePC and the Pan/Tilt should be inspected for faults if any red is displayed. Scans should notbe performed if any red is displayed as the Pan/Tilt position data will be degraded orincorrect.Use the directional buttons to move the pan/tilt.Figure 10Pan LeftWhen a pan/tilt device is connected, this allows the user to pan the sonar counterclockwise,as viewed from above the BV5000.Pan RightWhen a pan/tilt device is connected, this allows the user to pan the sonar clockwise, asviewed from above the BV5000.Tilt UpWhen a pan/tilt device is connected, this allows the user to tilt towards the surface.Tilt DownWhen a pan/tilt device is connected, this allows the user to tilt towards the bottom.©BlueView Technologies Page | 25
