Leica Viva – Bluetooth Connection to Ohmex SonarMite Echo Sounder
Leica Viva – Bluetooth Connection to Ohmex
The Ohmex SonarMite echo sounder is much like its
predecessor, the Ohmex SonarLite, but uses Bluetooth, rather
than a cable, to stream depths to the Leica CS15 Controller.
This guide will take you through configuring SmartWorx Viva
to accept and record depths from the SonarMite via the
Bluetooth connection.
When you measure a GPS position, the most
recently received echo sounder depth will be
recorded as an Annotation to that point.
