Acoustic Stack Test
5. Turn the generator off. Check the stack for proper
assembly, damaged components, or dirty mating
surfaces. Recheck the ultrasound cable for proper
connections. Repeat Steps 1 through 4. If the test still
fails, go to the next step.
6. Turn the generator off, remove the stack from the
thruster, and remove the horn from the stack. Reinstall
the transducer-booster assembly in the thruster and
turn the generator on. Repeat Steps 2 through 4.
If the assembly passes with the horn removed, the horn
is outside the specifications required for operation with
the Digi-Trac preset range. Reassemble the horn to the
stack.
The System tab of iQ Explorer has a section for
Advanced Hardware. These features are designed for
unique horns and applications. See Figure 5-4.
Consult Dukane Corporation before making adjustments
