Getting Started; Getting Started With Sailfish Via Usb-C Or Wifi Connection - AML Oceanographic AML-3 User Manual

2 Getting Started

This section provides an overview of basic instrument operation and functionality under a
factory-default setup. Specifically, this section describes how to connect to the instrument,
change settings via interface software, stream sensor measurements, and record and download
data.
Details describing how to change the instrument's configuration and behaviour are described in
the Configuration section of this document.

2.1 Getting started with Sailfish via USB-C or WiFi Connection

The preferred (but not the only) method of communicating with the instrument is via AML's
software interface, Sailfish; a user-friendly GUI-based platform which allows users to configure
an instrument, observe live sensor measurements (live data streaming), and download logged
data. Sailfish may be downloaded free of charge from the AML Oceanographic website
( www.AMLoceanographic.com ).
Sailfish provides the easiest means of adjusting the instrument's configuration. Advanced
commands exist, and may be applied via command line. Refer to section Configuring an
Instrument later in this document for more details.
To use Sailfish to configure the AML-3 and AML-6 LGR instrument, follow the procedure
described below:
