- Adding the Sensor to the Receiver
  You need to add the Trawl Explorer to the receiver in order to display sensor data on Scala2.
  - Adding the Sensor with a Configuration File
    You can add the sensor to the receiver with a configuration file that contains the sensor settings you configured on Mosa2.
  - Adding the Sensor Manually
    You can add the sensor to the receiver from Scala2, by entering the same settings as the ones in Mosa2.
    - Adding the Sensor to the Receiver
    - Configuring the Sensor Settings
- Configuring the Sensor Display on Scala2
  You can display Trawl Explorer measurements (e.g. echogram, depth, temperature,...) on pages in Scala2. For V3 version of the sensor, you can also display target strength data, that help you identify fish.

Adding the Sensor to the Receiver

About this task

In order to avoid differences of settings between the configuration on Mosa2 and Scala2, we recommend you to add the sensor to the receiver with an xml configuration file exported from Mosa2.

Procedure

From Scala2, click Menu > Expert Mode and enter the password copernic.
Right-click the IP address of the receiver at the bottom of the page, then click Configure Receiver.
From the left side of the page, click Sensors.
From Product Category, select Trawl Explorer.
From Product Name, select Narrow Band Trawl Explorer with Target Strength (V1)/(V2)/(V3) (choose accordingly to Firmware installed).
From Trawl Gear Location, select the location of the sensor on the trawl. Sensor locations are called nodes and have a numerical value between 1 and 999. We recommend you to choose: 7, 8 or 9 to install the sensor on the tunnel, and 10, 11, 12 or 13 to install it on the headrope.
Click Add Sensor.
The sensor is added to the receiver and displayed on the left side of the page. The configuration page is displayed.
