July 2019 – TD 304 OPERATING MANUAL – Doppler Current Profiler Sensor
1 The fixed heading value is used if fixed heading is enabled.
Set to 'No' if used upward looking and 'Yes' if used downward looking.
Uses different calibration coefficient set depending on setting.
1
Surface Cell and Surface Referred Columns are not possible when
sensor is downward looking.
Turns on and of the wave measurements. Only available when Wave
1
software 5729 is enabled with Wave License Key and used in AiCaP
mode and at least a pressure sensor are connected to the same bus.
Integration time used for wave calculation. 5 min,10 min,15 min,20
min,25 min,30 min. Default is 20min. Only available when Wave
1
software 5729 is enabled with Wave License Key and used in AiCaP
mode and at least a pressure sensor are connected to the same bus.
Selectable between 2Hz and 4Hz sampling. Default is 4Hz. Only
available when Wave software 5729 is enabled with Wave License Key
1
and used in AiCaP mode and at least a pressure sensor are connected
to the same bus.
Select units for Significant wave height to either Metric (meter) or
Imperial (feet). Default setting is Metrics (meter). Only available when
1 Wave software 5729 is enabled with Wave License Key and used in
AiCaP mode and at least a pressure sensor are connected to the same
bus.
Selects between Broadband and Narrowband operation. See Chapter
1
2.4.4 or 3.6.3 for explanation.
Locks the Broadband algorithm to the speed interval between 0 and
1 1.2m/s. Should be used if the user knows that the current speeds are
always below 1.2m/s.
The number of ping measurements to be executed in one interval (set
by interval property), i.e. the number of ping measurements to be
1 averaged in one recording. Selectable from 10 to 7200. Note that the
number of ping needed in broadband is a factor 30 lower compared to
narrowband.
If set to 'No', the pings are uniformly spread over the interval. If set to
1
'Yes' the pings are transmitted at the beginning or end of the interval.
If set to "Start of Interval" all pings will be transmitted in the beginning of
the interval but presented in the end. If set to "End of Interval" it will
1 transmit all pings in the end of the interval close to the read out. Default
setting is End of Interval. Only available if Enable Burst Mode is
selected.
Enables a measurement of the surface layer. This layer I based on the
strong reflection from the thin layer between water and air. There will be
1
a strong correlation between wind and speed/surface boundary speed
and wind direction / surface boundary direction.
The surface cell size around the surface layer. The time window where
1 the sensor measures the Doppler is centred at the surface. Selectable
from 0.5 to 5 meter. Default setting is 1 meter.
