Checking transceiver and transducer settings

In order to use the ES80, the Processor Unit must be connected to one or more
transceivers, and each of them must in turn be connected to one or more transducers.
Each channel must be installed before it can be put to use. In this context, the phrase
channel is used as a common term to identify the combination of transceiver, transducer
and operating frequency. It is often useful to verify that all the channels are properly
set up. This is a requirement for the ES80 performance.
Prerequisites
The ES80 is installed as specified in the ES80 Installation manual. The ES80 is turned
on, and it is working normally. Minimum one Wide Band Transceiver (WBT) with one
or more transducers has been connected.
Context
If you are using a ES80 that has been in use for some time, you can safely assume that
the transceivers and transducers have been set up properly. However, the procedure
may prove useful if you are an inexperienced user. Make sure that you do not change
any important settings.
