# How To Tell Which IMU is Active

Since the IMU type is defined in software it is possible to set either IMU type in the ROVL Receiver or Transceiver. We recommend you use the correct IMU for your model. You can tell which IMU is active by looking on the Dashboard tab of the CeruleanTracker main window. IMU status for a Mk II IMU will be a four-digit number. IMU status for a Cerulean IMU will be "CIMU".
