Sensor Configuration
Learn how to configure the sensor settings.
- Installing Mosa2
  If Mosa2 is not already installed on the computer, you need to install it to configure the sensor.
- Connecting the Sensor to Mosa2
  To configure the sensor, you need to connect it to Mosa2.
- Configuring a WiFi Network
  If you have your own WiFi network, you can configure the HDTE to automatically connect to it. If no WiFi network is configured, the HDTE automatically turns itself into a WiFi access point.
- Sounding Modes
  The sensor can send pings according to three different sounding modes.
- Configuring Uplink, Up and Down Settings
  You can configure different settings for uplink, down and up sounding.
- Configuring Measurements Sending Sequence
  You can configure the order and types of measurements (e.g. temperature, pitch, roll...) sent by the uplink to the receiver.
- Getting SD Card High Resolution Data
  You can download and replay data recorded on the sensor SD card. These data are in higher resolution and you can see target strength values without uplink sound transmission loss.
- Testing Measures
  You can test the measures taken by the sensor (e.g. battery level, temperature, depth) to check that there are no faults.
- Exporting Sensor Configuration for Record Keeping
  You can export the sensor settings you configured on Mosa2 in order to keep track of the sensor configuration settings.
- Exporting Sensor Configuration for Receiver
  You can export the sensor settings you configured on Mosa2 in an xml file. You can afterwards use this xml file when adding the sensor to a receiver.

Exporting Sensor Configuration for Record Keeping

You can export the sensor settings you configured on Mosa2 in order to keep track of the sensor configuration settings.

Before you begin

You have finished configuring the sensor.
The sensor is connected to Mosa2.

About this task

Note: You cannot use this xml file to add the sensor to a receiver on Scala2. See Exporting Sensor Configuration for Receiver.

Procedure

From the right side of the screen, click Export config.
From the dialog box that appears, select a target folder and click Open.
An xml file containing the sensor settings is created at the choosen location.
Change the xml file name.

Note: When you export the sensor settings, the xml file always has the same name. Changing its name will prevent you from overwritting it the next time you download sensor settings.
