Every 2 years | The sensor must be returned to an approved Marport dealer for inspection and maintenance. |
If the sensor has not been not used for more than 3 months, we highly recommend to check
the following points before using it:
- Make sure the sensors on the end cap are in good condition and clean.
- Connect the sensor to a charger and check the charging status.
- Switch on the sensor by activating the water-switch, then listen for a ping noise and check if you see the LED switched on.
- Test the sensor measures with Mosa2: depth, temperature, pitch, roll, and if applicable: spread distance, echogram, catch status, speed measures (using the EM log tester).
- If you have a test hydrophone, check the reception in the wheelhouse with Scala2.
