Waking up the ADCP
-------------------------

(6) **Establishing Communication**

After setting up the Port and Baud rate, and connecting to 
the port (to allow 2-way communication), you must wake up the 
instrument.  By sending a BREAK to the instrument, and seeing
the "Wakeup" message, you have established that the above 
settings are correct, the cable works, the instrument has power
and can communicate.

RDI documentation will tell you to do these things with BBTALK
but that is unnecessary.  You have tk_terminal.py


Use the **Commands** menu item and choose **Wakeup**
