I don't know how it is in CMO but in CMANO you could simply press F9 to bring up the sensor screen and there see if the sensor was active or passive, at least if the wire between torpedo and submarine was intact. I can't remember if you could set the sensor to active before it was close to the target but on the other hand that would just give the enemy warning that a torpedo is incoming in many cases.
I am not sure if you could bring up the sensor screen for the torpedo if the wire contact with the torpedo had been lost or if you had fired a torpedo that had no wire channel to connect to on the submarine due to all torpedo wire control channels already being occupied by other fired torpedos.
As a rule in CMANO, at least with 1970s weapons and later, the seeker was passive while the torpedo was closing in on the target and switched to active when arriving at the sensor's range from the calculated intercept point, just as an active radar guided air to missile behaved in other words.
I can't say for sure if it's the same in CMO since I haven't tested it but I guess it should be.
