Dunker mode is when a iWand is connected directly to a transceiver via a cable which enables an alternative method to release a subsea instrument. Note: this is a depreciated mode that is unsupported; the Deck Topside should be used instead of this configuration

When using the iWand in RT 6 Dunker mode, the iWand will no longer communicate through the serial port as it is now configured for talking directly to a transceiver. In this mode the iWand cannot perform a hardware test or refresh.

To connect the iWand serially, RT 6 Dunker Mode must be disabled as follows:

1.  On the iWand, select RT 6 Dunker Mode.

2. Select Off to return to standard mode.

3. The iWand should now connect to the transponder using the serial port.
