Learn how to configure the sensor settings.
You need to set these settings for a Catch Explorer sensor.
To configure the sensor, you need to connect it to Mosa2 using a wireless communication or using the Configuration Cable.
You need to calibrate the catch sensor to make sure you have correct catch measures. This procedure applies for both Catch Explorer and Catch sensors.
You need to test the catch sensor to check if the empty/full status works correctly. You can do this regularly.
You can configure different settings for uplink and down soundings.
TVG (Time Variable Gain) is a method that compensate signal loss in the water. Basically, the aim is to have targets or sea bottom displayed in the same color on the echogram, whatever the distance from the sensor.
If you have a Catch sensor (40kHz), you need to configure the telegrams it transmits. This does not apply for Catch Explorer sensors.
You can increase the uplink power of the sensor to increase the power of the signal transmitted. It is useful if you have interferences or if the sensor is far from the vessel.
You can test the measures taken by the sensor (e.g. battery level, temperature, depth) to check that there are no faults.
You can export in a *.txt file all the settings configured for the sensor (such as ping length, frequency, range, TVG...).
You can export on an XML file the sensor settings that you configured on Mosa2. You can afterward use this file when adding the sensor to a receiver.
