Generic - Valeport - MIDAS SVX2 - 31

Description

This driver can be used to decode the following observations from the Valeport MIDAS SVX2:

Pressure
Sound Velocity
Conductivity
Temperature

There is an option to let the system calculate a salinity which is then added to the end of the string. You could, in this case, modify the driver to also decode that value.

Warning

Note that this is not an official driver. If you run into any issues, please contact QPS Support.
