Aquadopp Checksum Calculation

Posted by brodsky at June 22. 2007
Can someone tell me how to compute the checksum the Aquadopp sends?  Here's a sample from the head configuration, in hex.
I cannot figure out how to get '89c6' from the values that precede it,
with or without the 'b58c' offset listed in the manual.

Aquadopp Checksum Calculation

Checksum computation is described in the System Integrator Guide which is available on request. Unfortunately there is a misprint in the data structures section of the manual saying that the checksum is computed in characters. It should read words (shorts), not bytes. Sorry for the inconvenience.
