Ruskin Mobile is a light version of Ruskin, with all the essential functions needed to manage deployments, and with the added advantages of a smart phone such as augmenting data with GPS tracking, displaying live data and uploading to the cloud. Ruskin Mobile connects to Wi-Fi enabled RBR instruments and works on iPhone®, iPad®, Android™ phone, and Android™ tablet. -

Continue the same deployment in Desktop mode, without the ability to view charts. You can still download your dataset, archive it to Dropbox or another sharing destination, and then use Ruskin Desktop to display it on your computer. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile... -
Page 5: Connect To Your Instrument
3 Connect to your instrument RBR instruments with a built-in Wi-Fi module have the WI-FI READY icon on the end-cap and can connect to mobile devices. The Wi-Fi module needs to be enabled at the time of purchase. Contact RBR if you have any question about this feature. - Page 6 From the Home screen, tap the Ruskin app icon . Ruskin Mobile will automatically connect to the instrument. The Wi-Fi is disabled after 60 seconds of inactivity. Twist the end-cap to RUN or PAUSE to re-activate the Wi-Fi.

Page 8: Deploy Your Instrument
The Ruskin Mobile screen is divided into several areas where current parameters are displayed, and includes three operating buttons. There is a toolbar at the bottom of the screen, with four views: Instrument, Datasets, Locations, and Settings. When connected to an instrument, the Instrument view contains information about your instrument and its deployment. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile... - Page 9 However, you cannot resume the same deployment after stopping it. After changing the sampling rate, you will have to start a new deployment. Once a deployment has been stopped, it cannot be resumed. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile...
- Page 10 Tap the purple TAG button to log the CURRENT LOCATION data manually. The last tagged location will be updated to indicate the coordinates and accuracy of the manual GPS waypoint fix. Both types of waypoints described (manual tags and those taken automatically on download) can be seen plotted on a map in the Locations tab. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile...
- Page 11 Each deployment can only have one sampling rate, and it cannot be changed while logging is just paused. To change the sampling rate, stop the deployment. When the deployment is stopped, twisting the end-cap to either RUN or PAUSE will activate the Wi-Fi, but the instrument will not vibrate as it is not sampling. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile...

Page 12: Access Datasets And Charts
If you have not set up your Dropbox and are using other ways to upload datasets from your device, the second list will not appear. By default, the datasets will be automatically removed from your device once they are uploaded to Dropbox. Thus, you cannot view charts for archived datasets. To change this preference, go to the Settings tab. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile... - Page 13 On iOS, swiping to the left on an item in the Datasets list will reveal several operations that can be performed on that dataset: Info, Share, Delete. On Android, long- pressing the item reveals the equivalent context menu. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile...
- Page 14 Swipe left and right to view the chart for each cast. In the example shown, the dataset includes 10 casts. The instrument determines the start and end of a downcast by depth (pressure) readings, and thus only a single chart will be created when testing the out-of-water samples. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile...
- Page 15 Use pinch-to-zoom to zoom in and out on your data. The chart axes adjust relative to each other on zooming and panning around the chart. As a result, all chart series occupy the full height or width of the chart and can be easily compared side-by-side. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile...
- Page 16 Tap on Details in the top-right corner to reveal information about the displayed cast and deployment parameters. The deployment data is also available in the Info context menu of the Datasets list. The same deployment data is also available in the Info context menu of the Datasets list.

Page 17: Track Your Instrument
The app knows where the instrument was for each sample and adds this information to the dataset, thus ensuring continuous tracking. The red button in the bottom right corner reads either START or STOP, depending on whether tracking is in progress. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile... - Page 18 A track file is independent of any RSK, but Ruskin uses it to inject location data into the RSK whenever the RSK is downloaded. The RSK geodata table will contain one row for every GPS entry captured during the deployment. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile...
- Page 19 Open the dropdown menu and tap on a dataset. A map will open, showing the tracked route recorded during deployment. Tap on the Information drawer button at the top right to view the details related to deployment, waypoints, instrument, and map type. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile...
- Page 20 If track data is not available for the full deployment, some profile pins may be missing from the map. Refer to the information drawer to see how many profile locations could be determined. RBR#0014393revA Ruskin Mobile...
