Example Standard Sonarmite Output
Output Parameters
Output message is eight numeric ASCII parameters, floating format, space delimited as ...
id depth roll pitch heave battery qa flags<cr><lf>
where ...
id = The id number of the instrument (0..7)
depth = current measured depth (m)
roll = current roll lateral atitude (+/-deg)
pitch = current pitch axial atitude (+/-deg)
heave = current heave depth correction (m)
battery = current battery condition (v)
qa = current depth relative qa value (0=null, 70=poor, 128=best)
flags = binary toggle flags 1=^X, 2=^Y, 4=^A, 16=^Z, 32=^G
Please note that if no transducer is seen or the qa is below 5 (out of water) then the output will appear
as a string of 8 nulls at 1 second timeouts, in normal operation the eight numbers are reported at 0.5
second intervals.
