Hi my name is Nick Stasulis and I work with
the Maine Office of New England Water Science

00:00:11.980 --> 00:00:12.980
Center.

00:00:12.980 --> 00:00:17.000
In this video, we will review the process
of setting up a connection between an ADCP

00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:20.830
and the SonTek RSSL software.

00:00:20.830 --> 00:00:25.230
The exact process of connecting to the M9/S5
will vary depending on whether you are using

00:00:25.230 --> 00:00:30.570
Bluetooth, radio modems, the SonTek proprietary
radio or direct connect.

00:00:30.570 --> 00:00:34.680
Given the large number of possibilities when
it comes to communication with the M9/S5,

00:00:34.680 --> 00:00:37.050
we will not cover each scenario in this video.

00:00:37.050 --> 00:00:42.020
For the purposes of this demonstration, we
will assume you have setup the M9 and communication

00:00:42.020 --> 00:00:45.110
device based on your specific setup.

00:00:45.110 --> 00:00:50.320
In my case, I am using a newer style PCM with
a SonTek USB radio adapter.

00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:54.290
In the software, select the Connect to System
link at the top of the page under Connection

00:00:54.290 --> 00:00:55.940
Options.

00:00:55.940 --> 00:01:00.619
A dialog box will open with the available
ADCPs displayed.

00:01:00.619 --> 00:01:03.260
Select your ADCP from the list and click the
Connect button.

00:01:03.260 --> 00:01:07.360
When the connection is made, the software
will change to the System page, which is used

00:01:07.360 --> 00:01:11.970
to setup a measurement, a process discussed
in other videos in this series.

00:01:11.970 --> 00:01:16.190
You may or may not get warnings once connection
is established, as we did in this case.

00:01:16.190 --> 00:01:19.790
Be sure to address these before data collection.

00:01:19.790 --> 00:01:24.460
The RiverSurveyor S5/M9 manual contains much
more detail on the process of establishing

00:01:24.460 --> 00:01:29.670
communication between the ADCP and your computer,
including use of the manual connect option.
