Communicating with the DVL

The DVL communicates via Ethernet or TTL serial. Both interfaces are active on startup. Incoming messages received on either interface are treated identically, first-come, first-served. Outgoing messages are sent on both interfaces simultaneously. Both interfaces can be used simultaneously, but we recommend you do not send commands on both interfaces. If using both for monitoring, use one for monitoring and the other for monitoring/controlling.

Refer also to the user manual for CeruleanTracker, which is a Windows Application that may be able to manage all the communications for you.
