---------1---------2---------3---------4---------5---------6----- DVL 300/600 Firmware Readme File as of: July 2025 ======================================== Current Firmware Version: 83.32 ----------------------------------------------------------------- DVL (Pathfinder/Tasman) 300/600 Firmware Revision History ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 83.32 [07/2025]: - Improved the terrain bias correction for low altitude BM8 and LABT for 307.2 KHz systems. - Improved the terrain bias correction for 614.4 KHz systems for both high and low altitudes. - The DVL scale-factor calibration has changes by a small amount in this FW release. Therefore, if any additional scale-factor calibrations are applied by the INS, it is recommended to redo those calibrations for optimal performance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 83.31 [10/2023]: - Fixed a problem with internal pitch/roll sensor selection priority. - Fixed a non-volatile memory error problem. - Fixed a bug that would stop the reporting of the temperature from the internal sensor. The ET value would be reported instead. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 83.30 [02/2023]: - Important update: This is the minimum firmware version for Pathfinders and Tasmans shipped Feburary 2023 and later. - Fixed a bug, that was introduced in v83.28, where the beam 2,3,4 velocities would be overriden with the velocity on beam 1 for XRT pings. This bug occured before transformation so would invalidate velocities in any frame. - Fixed a bug, that was introduced in v83.26, which made the SD menu unavailable. - Fixed a bug, that was introduced in v74.19, which applied pitch and roll data from the internal inclinometer to the ship rather than the instrument frame. EP default parameters are now 0,0,0. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 83.29 [10/2022]: - Fixed a bug, that was introduced in v83.27, where water profile data was in the incorrect coordinate system when the system was set to beam coordinates ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 83.28 [07/2022]: - Internal release. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 83.27 [03/02/2022]: - Improved bottom-track performance at depths near 20m - Fixed an issue where certain combinations of serial and ethernet command settings would cause errors in velocity output ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 83.26 [12/21/2021]: - Initial release of DVL firmware for Pathfinder and Tasman products. - Fixes bottom track issue introduced in 67.23 and 74.23. - Fixes PD11 $PRDIH telegram not matching documentation. - Fixes Link status issue in CE banner. - Adds support for 300 KHz Pathfinder. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
