TRANSMITTER STARTUP AND OPERATION

3.1 Initial

Start-up

At initial power up the Green LED will light and the transmitter will
display startup progress; load firmware into the system, load system
parameters, and the heartbeat indicator will activate as the transmitter
begins to collect data from the sensor head. Once startup is
complete, the display will clear and begin displaying measurements.
The following figure illustrates an initial system startup screen.

System Start Display

The SONARtrac display has 2 distinct modes: the operational mode
where the measured parameters are displayed and the menu mode
where various system parameters can be set. In each of these modes
the keypad will have different functions. The following table shows the
function of each key in the keypad depending on the display mode.
Menu traversal rules are based on the following table.
