Wave Display - RBR 1050 Series User Manual

Wave display

When data has been downloaded from a TWR-2050 recorder that has wave
information, three derived units are always calculated: Depth, Significant wave
height (WavHt) [the conventional H in meters], and Tidal slope (TSlope)
1/3
[m/hour]. The following screen shows wave data on the graphical display. The
cursor is on the peak wave reading for the storm activity and the channel spin
button has been used to display the significant wave height scale on the y-axis.
The blue vertical bars at the top of the graph indicate the locations in the data set
of wave data.
A subsidiary Wave measurements screen is displayed when wave data is
available and a wave set has been selected by the main graphical display cursor:
The graph shows the calculated surface wave time plot for the wave burst
selected on the main graphical display together with the calculated parameters
for this wave burst.
