The trawl is placed incorrectly
The positioning settings may be incorrect.
- From Scala2, click .
- Right-click the IP address of the receiver at the bottom of the page, then click Configure Receiver.
- From the left side of the screen where the system is displayed, click Positioning.
- Check that the settings are correctly completed. See Configuring the Positioning Settings
There is no trawl on Scala2, MaxSea or Olex
Trawl settings may be incorrect.
- Open the control panels and check from the Trawl data that you see incoming data in Doors Positioning.
- Click .
- Check that Headline (H), Bridle (B) and Sweepline (S) dimensions are completed according to your trawl model.
There is no trawl or vessel
You may have no GPS coordinates or heading data.
- Open the control panels, then go to NMEA Inputs and check that you receive GPS coordinates and heading data.
- If not, check you have correctly configured the NMEA input(s): Adding Data from External Devices.
The trawl seems shrunken
Bearing angles may be incorrect.
- Check the baseline dimensions you entered in the positioning settings in the system web page (or Scala2 receiver page).
The vessel and trawl have erratic movements: they jump, zigzag, move forward and backward
You have two GPS inputs. Coordinates can be slightly different
between the two GPS so the position of the trawl changes according to one or the other.
- Open the control panels and check if you receive coordinates from two GPS in NMEA Inputs. If so, remove one of the devices.
Positioning on SeapiX: Port/starboard trawl doors are reversed
NMEA output sentence may be wrong.
- Go to .
- Click the edit icon in front of the corresponding NMEA output.
- Click Data to Emit tab, then check that Emit trawl positioning sentence is set to Best sentence for Seapix ($PTSAL).
