TRDI Toolz has a user-friendly interface for running the pre-deployment tests and setting the Moni- tor/Sentinel real-time clock. Refer to the Workhorse and Workhorse II Command Guide for a listing of all direct commands and their format. Setting the ADCP Clock The real-time clock (date and time) within the Monitor/Sentinel maintains the correct time while system power is removed. - Page 14 If the Depth sensor is not zero, zero the pressure sensor. 5. If a sensor fails, contact TRDI Field Service. See the WorkHorse Operation Manual, Chapter 5 for details on testing the sensors.

Page 20: Recovering Data
Compass Post Calibration corrects for heading errors due to hard and soft iron effects in the Workhorse reference frame during the deployment. Often, post calibration will provide results more reliable than when only a pre-deployment calibration is performed. - Page 21 WorkHorse Monitor/Sentinel Deployment Guide P/N 957-6285-00 (July 2023) To post calibrate the data: 1. Use TRDI Toolz to download the data from the CompactFlash recorder. For example, the pd0 data file is named _RDI_000.000 and the _RDI_000.cal is the post calibration file and both files are down- loaded to the same folder.
