USBL


Parent Item
System:List with all available USBL systems that exist in the current selected Qinsy database.
(see General Layout Information about loading a Qinsy database)
Node:List with all available nodes that are attached to the selected USBL system.
Apply C-O:
  • No
  • Yes
    The USBL X, Y and Z value will be corrected for sound velocity, as entered in Database Setup.
    Formula: Corrected XYZ = Raw XYX * (Calibrated / Used sound velocity)

Text Format
  • Normal Text
    Your own free plain text
  • Binary
    Enter one or more ASCII character codes, comma or space separated, in the range between 1 and 127.
    For example '2' for a binary STX character, '3' for a binary ETX character, or '13, 10' for CR+LF.
    See table ASCII Codes for an overview of all possible characters.

  • New Line
    Same as Binary but already formatted as '13, 10' (meaning CR+LF) and without a possible Field Delimiter.
    A Field Delimiter may be present when your layout purpose is for Export or ASCII Logging.

Name

Name of the selected system, as defined in Database Setup

Tp Node Name

Name of the selected node, as defined in Database Setup

Tp Slot

Slot name the selected node (i.e. transponder)
Slot Id name is by default defined in Database Setup, but can be changed on-line in the Controller's Computation Setup

Time

Time of the last raw update

time

X

USBL X Value
Same value as seen in the Raw or Corrected (C-O applied) column of the Observation Physics Display

double




Y

USBL Y Value
Same value as seen in the Raw or Corrected (C-O applied) column of the Observation Physics Display

double

Z

USBL Z Value
Same value as seen in the Raw or Corrected (C-O applied) column of the Observation Physics Display

double



Range

Horizontal distance (grid), or the slant range (3D), between transducer and transponder

double

Range:

  • Horizontal (default)
    Formula: sqrt( dX*dX + dY*dY )
  • Slant
    Formula: sqrt( dX*dX + dY*dY + dZ*dZ )

Age

The difference between the triggering time and the time of the last raw update (see above).
Normally always a positive value in seconds.

Note that the Age value for export will be the difference between the time of the current observation and the previous exported one.

Formula:

  • Online  (Generic Display, Generic Output Driver, Generic ASCII Logger)
    Age = Triggering time - Observation time
  • Offline (Generic Export)
    Age = Observation time - Previous observation time
double



Quality

Same quality as seen in Observation Physics Display
