10 Select which datagram(s) you want to import from the peripheral device.
When you select sensor type ITI-FS, only one datagram can be selected; ITI-FS
Datagrams. This is a group of datagrams that allows the ES80 to import information
from trawl systems.

Setting up the input from a motion reference unit (MRU)

The information from a motion reference unit (MRU) (normally heave, roll and pitch
information) is imported into the ES80 to increase the accuracy of the echo data.
Prerequisites
This procedure assumes that:
• You have a vacant interface port on your Processor Unit.
• You are familiar with NMEA and other relevant datagram formats.
• You know how to set up the parameters for serial and local area network (LAN)
communication.
• The interface port is set up with the correct communication parameters.
• The ES80 is turned on, and it is working normally.
• The new sensor is physically connected to the ES80 using a serial or network cable. It
is switched on and in normal operation.
Neither tools nor instruments are required.
Context
A motion reference unit (MRU) measures the vessel's pitch and roll movements in the
sea. The information provided by the motion sensor is used by the ES80 to stabilize the
echo presentation.
Procedure
1 Connect the motion sensor system to an available communication port on your
Processor Unit.
This is described in the ES80 Installation manual.
