Creating an advanced sequence — example
Advanced sequencing enables you to execute a number of different ping configurations in
sequence. The different ping configurations defined are gathered into ping groups. The ping
groups can be executed repeatedly in what is named ensembles. The sequence includes any
number of ensembles and each ensemble may be repeated a fixed number of times.
Prerequisites
• You are familiar with the objective of the survey and how the echo sounder works.
• The EK80 is running in Normal or Inactive operating mode.
• All transducers used in an advanced sequence must be installed in the EK80.
Context
This is an example where you create an advanced sequence consisting of ping configurations,
ping groups and ensembles.
In the sequence there will be two different ping configurations, one for active mode and one
for passive mode. The two ping configurations are included into one separate ping group
each, one for active and one for passive pings. These two ping groups will be included in an
ensemble. In the ensemble the active mode pings will be executed 50 times and the passive
mode pings will be executed 10 times. The ensemble, when included in the sequence,
is repeated 3 times.
Tip
When the advanced sequence includes only one ensemble, as in this example, the number of
iterations is not relevant. The advanced sequence will be repeated until you manually stop
the execution. If the sequence includes more than one ensemble, the number of repetition for
each of the ensembles must be specified.
