Step 3 B Connecting the Power/Comm Cable
Step 3 C Setting Up the Communications
1. Place the Pioneer on its transducer face on a soft surface.
2. Remove the Power/Comm protective cap and lubricate the connector.
3. Push the cable straight onto the Power/COMM connector ensuring the pins are properly
aligned. While keeping a slight inward pressure on the cable connector and ensuring that
the connector is straight, thread the locking sleeve onto the receptacle to complete the
connection.
4. Attach the Power/Comm cable to the computer’s serial communication port. Use an RS-422
to RS-232 adapter if the DVL is configured with port 1 as RS-422.
5. Connect the power adapter cable to the DVL/Power/Comm cable power connector by
pushing it all the way in until it “clicks”. Connect +10.7 to 36 VDC power. The power supply
should be able to source at least 4 Amps.
6. Place the Pioneer system in water (at least a few inches to cover the transducer face).
7. Establish communications with the Pioneer.
