Database Setup

  1. Magnetometer (Maggy)
    To decode the magnetometer field observation (nT) a Magnetometer system needs to be defined. The quality factor (e.g. shown in the Observation Physics Display) is the actual signal strength of the reading.

  2. Miscellaneous system
    To decode the magnetometer signal and field observation a Miscellaneous system needs to be defined. After this system has been added the user needs to define the magnetometer field and signal observation. 
    To be able to decode the correct observation the user needs to enter slot information. For each observation the identifier that corresponds with the field for which you are defining the observation needs to be entered as the slot i.e. 'S' when defining the magnetometer signal observation.


  3. Underwater Sensor
    To decode the fish depth and altitude observation an Underwater System needs to be defined. After the system has been added the user needs to define the fish depth and altitude observations.
