7 Appendix C - Calculated Parameters

The AML-6 instrument has the ability to calculate certain parameters depending on your sensor
configuration. Below is a table outlining the parameters that can be calculated.
Parameter
Salinity
Salinity (from SV)
Density
Density (from SV)
Sound Velocity*
Depth
C - conductivity, T- temperature, SV - sound velocity, P- pressure
1 - Instrument will report 0-90 PSU, however PSS-78 equation is valid only from 2-50 PSU.
*Calculated salinity must be enabled for the calculated Sound Velocity to operate correctly
