RDI Rio Grande ADCP General Instructions

  • The RDI Rio Grande should be used with an aluminum boat mount / hardware due to it's internal compass
  • All nuts/bolts etc. should be stainless steel, aluminum, or titanium to minimize interference with the ADCP compass.
  • Compass calibration is required each time the ADCP is used at a new location, or has been moved around or placed near ferrous objects that could effect the compass calibration.
  • The Rio Grande can be used with a GPS.
  • Winriver II software is used with the Rio Grande to collect discharge data
