C21 - New line
This is an input to provide manual count of survey lines. This
functionality is however not currently supported by the EK60

C22 - Event
This is an input to provide a manual vertical line annotation on

C23 - Synchronization
With more than one acoustic system installed on the same

way of synchronizing the EK60 system is by using these pins on
the Auxiliary plug.
