The SonUtils Windows-based software package contains utility programs that can be used with any SonTek instrument. With SonUtils, you can:
  • "Talk" directly to any SonTek instrument
  • Download data from an internal recorder (if installed)
  • Calibrate the internal compass/tilt sensor (if installed)
  • Load probe calibration files (ADV-based systems)
  • Load pressure sensor calibration files (if installed)
  • Update instrument firmware (on systems that support "downloadable" firmware EPROMs)

The Windows Vista/XP/2K version of SonUtils includes features that allow you to:

  • Simultaneously monitor more than one instrument (one instrument per COM port up to a maximum of eight).
  • Run beam diagnostics on certain instrument types (primarily ADV and Argonaut-based systems).
  • Plot theoretical signal strength decay curve. This curve is useful in viewing non-uniform features in a profile.
  • Enhanced support for creating your own script files and command buttons for use within SonUtils.
  • Expanded help file in PDF format (click here for a free copy of the Adobe Acrobat Reader).
  • Download internal recorder files at extremely fast rates using the included SonRecP program. Cautions apply to this program, so read about SonRecP before using it.
  • Set up communication parameters for use with SonTek's Modbus Interface Module (MIM).
  IMPORTANT: Beginning with the versions listed here, several of our programs were updated in support of Microsoft Vista. If you use any of the following programs, you MUST update all of them at the same time. You only need to update those files you use with your system.
  • CurrentSurveyor v4.60
  • FlowPack v1.20
  • FlowTracker v2.20
  • HorizonADV v1.20
  • RiverSurveyor v4.60
