(32-bit where 32 flags indicates different statuses) with a '1' if there is a mismatch between the upside down setting and
the orientation measured by the sensor (binary bits xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx1, where x are the other bits
indicating other statuses).
The burst mode should be enabled when using a longer interval where the user does not want to average the current
4)
over the entire interval. The burst duration for executing all the pings is dependent on the configuration of the sensor
(profile size, number of columns, number of cells and number of ping).
The enumeration is Off, Output in Smart Sensor Terminal and AADI Real-Time mode. In AiCaP the enumeration is
5)
Off, Storage, Output+Storage, where Output+Storage means that the sensor instructs the Datalogger to send out a
parameter in real-time in addition to saving the parameter to the SD card and Storage for only saving the data to the SD
card.
The sensor can compensate for variable Temperature, Conductivity and Pressure when installed on a SeaGuardII or
6)
SmartGuard Datalogger. If the Datalogger has these sensors connected, the DCPS5400 can be configured to take the
input from these sensors to calculate Depth, Salinity, Density and Sound Speed. The calculated depth is also used
when surface cell and surface referred columns are enabled. If only some of the sensors are present, the DCPS can
also combine sensor inputs and settings to calculate the derived sound speed. See Chapter 3.5.5 through 3.5.9 for
explanation of Parameter Input when connected to a SeaGuardII or SmartGuard Datalogger.
The accuracy of the estimated current speeds depends on a correct sound speed setting. The cell positioning also

depends on the sound speed. The best way to compensate for variable sound speed is described above in.
