Ping control

This parameter is only available for depth sensors, and can only

be accessed in the Professional mode.

The dialogue box is used to control when a sensor will “ping”

(transmit an acoustic signal). For example, it is possible to

disable the sensor from being inadvertently activated when lying

in a wet net on deck (a depth of less than two meters) to prolong

its battery life. The available parameters are:

• Always - The sensor will “ping” at all depths during normal

operation.

• Depth > 2m - The sensor will “ping” only when it is at a

measured depth of more than two meters (deployed).

Operation

To operate, click the Ping Control dialogue box and drag the

slider bar to select the desired “ping” behaviour. Then, click the

Configure Sensor button to program the interfaced sensor with

the new Ping Control parameter. Finally, check that the

messagie filed is updated with the new parameter, and that the

message Success!! is displayed at the bottom as confirmation

that the command was executed.
