4.25 Operating SonarPro with a Series 3000 Sonar
System
SonarPro operates with either the Series 3000 or Series 5000 Sonar System.
However, each system has a different vxWorks and Startup.ini file. If you own
both systems, make sure you have the proper file set loaded into the Klein
directory before booting up the system. SonarPro will automatically detect and
configure to the system that it is connected to.
The Series 3000 includes a dual frequency towfish and an optional chirp sub
bottom profiler. You can operate both the low and high frequency sonars
simultaneously as shown in Figure 4-83, or you can operate either the low or the
high frequency sonar and the chirp sub bottom profiler simultaneously as shown in
Figure 4-84. To operate both the low and high frequency sonars, open a second
Sonar Viewer window, right click in this window to open the Sonar Viewer
Properties dialog box to the Plan View Configuration tab, and then select the sonar
frequency option, usually
Low
. To view sub bottom profile data, choose Sub
Bottom Viewer from the Window menu or click the
New Sub Bottom Viewer
button.
