Check_EV_Properties.R — Check_EV_Properties • FTRpack

Uses COM objects to run Echoview and get transducer properties. These properties are saved to a .csv file in the Data_Compile_dir of the DirNameFile excel spreadsheet. The name defaults to TransducerConfigCheck(SurveyName).csv This works for EV files that have an ek5 sub-directory too. The ek5 subdirectory must be named 'ek5 EV'
