Hello! I’ve recently gained access to a BlueROV2 R3 with a Ping1D echosounder integrated. I’m in a early-learning stage, and I’m encountering several issues. In this case, Pingviewer (v4.5.1) is having a lot of problems detecting Ping1D automatically. Sometimes it detects it and works normally, but most of the times it doesn’t. I’ve also tried Pingviewer Next but without any luck. Does anyone have an idea of where the problem might be?
Thanks in advance!
Eric.
Hi @eri3t -
How are you connecting the Ping to your computer or ROV? If using a BlueROV2, what version of BlueOS are you using?
Thanks for the speedy response @tony-white ,
The connection is through a USB to serial adapter, and a green light lights up, as described here. A white flash also appears occassionally (see atached video). We’re using latest BlueOS version (1.3.1).
