Customizing the Display of Data
Sensor Numerical Data
Data such pitch and roll, temperature, depth can be displayed in dials, gauges, history plots or text format.
Changing the Display of Page Elements
You can change the title, font, unit of measure and arrangement of data displayed on pages.

- Customizing the Display of Data
  - Echograms
    Echograms are a representation of what is detected by the sensors with the acoustic signals.
  - Zooming on Timestamp and Distance Scale
    In echograms and history plots, you can zoom in and out on the distance scale and timestamp and move them along.
  - Sensor Numerical Data
    Data such pitch and roll, temperature, depth can be displayed in dials, gauges, history plots or text format.
    - Display Types
      You can choose between different types of display when you drag numerical data to a page.
    - Changing the Display of Page Elements
      You can change the title, font, unit of measure and arrangement of data displayed on pages.
    - Displaying Catch Monitoring
      You can be alerted when the codend is full.
    - Displaying Single Trawl Spread
      If you have a trawl with door sensors, you can display a plot to see the distance between the trawl doors. For twin trawls, you can also see the distance between both doors and the clump.
    - Displaying Twin Trawl Spread
      You can display a diagram of twin trawl spread in order to see the distance between the port and starboard doors, and between the clump and port/starboard doors. This way, if the trawl is asymmetric you can adjust accordingly and see live results very easily.
  - 3D Views
    You can display 3D views of different elements from the system, for example the trawl doors or trawl speed sensors.
  - Displaying a Position Marker
    You can place a marker on plots and echograms to display the GPS position at a given time on the timestamp.
- Setting an Alarm on Incoming Data
  You can be alerted by an alarm when data received have a given value.
- Changing the Default Units
  You can change the default units of data displayed in Scala.
- Recording and Replaying Data
  Data received by Scala can be replayed with Scala Replay application.

Changing the Display of Page Elements

You can change the title, font, unit of measure and arrangement of data displayed on pages.

Before you begin

You must be in Customize mode to do this task.

About this task

Changing the display of elements can be done on different areas:

The title of the element
The element itself (dial, gauge or history plot).

Procedure

To change the title, right-click the title and choose:
- Font size
- Font color: it changes only the color of numerical data, except for history plots where it changes the color of the line.
- Custom Title to change the default title.

To change the display of plot, gauge or dial, right-click the element and choose:

Option	Description
Dial	Font size
Gauge	Rotate Font size Units
History Plot	Show raw data: useful to check if there are communication problems Show points: useful to see the interval of received data Show bars: if you use a seiner, useful to identify the different depths Vertical/horizontal
Text Display	Font size Font color Units

In the example below, the gauge orientation has been changed to vertical, the font size of the units and title have been changed to large fonts and the font color to yellow.

What to do next
