Different groups of parameters that will control the output from sensor. If
User Specified is selected you may select the individual parameter
under User Specified – Profile Parameter. For all other selections the
1
individual setting will be overruled by the group setting. Alternative
choices are: Simple Output, Basic Output, Basic + Beam Output, Basic
+ 3-beam Output, Basic + Beam + 3-beam Output, Full Output, User
Specified. See
Table 2-1
Enables automatic replacement of the standard 4-beams calculated
1
result with the best 3-beams if any disturbance in one of the beams.
Enables/Disables output of calculated North and East speed

'Off' or 'Output' (in AiCaP Off, Storage or Output+Storage).
Enables output of the four 3-Beam combinations.
calculated using only 3-transducers to help detect any obstructions in
1
one of the beams.
'Off' or 'Output' (in AiCaP Off, Storage or Output+Storage).
Enables output of the autobeam solution; the sensor uses a specific
algorithm to define, for each cell and ping, the best beam solution
automatically, based on the use of 3 or 4 beams depending on
1
disturbance.
5)
'Off' or 'Output' (in AiCaP Off, Storage or Output+Storage).
Sets the AutoBeam Speed Type. If AutoBeam Output is selected then
AutoBeam Speed Type will select the output format.

3.6.11
Enables output of calculated vertical speed
1
'Off' or 'Output' (in AiCaP Off, Storage or Output+Storage).
Enables the output of signal strength (Average from all beams).
1
'Off' or 'Output' (in AiCaP Off, Storage or Output+Storage).
Enables output of speeds for each individual beam (m/s).
1
'Off' or 'Output' (in AiCaP Off, Storage or Output+Storage).
Enables output of signal strength for each individual beam (dB).
1
'Off' or 'Output' (in AiCaP Off, Storage or Output+Storage).
Enables standard deviation output for horizontal speed calculated in
each cell.
5)
1
'Off' or 'Output' (in AiCaP Off, Storage or Output+Storage).
Enables standard deviation output of beam speed for each beam in
every cell.
