In order to allow the information from the PI Spread/Depth
sensor to be accepted and understood by the PI catch monitoring
system, the PI receiver must be set up correctly. This means that
you must tell the receiver that the sensor exists by entering the
sensor type, communication channels and update rate.
Note
The PI Spread/Depth sensor is a "dual" sensor. This means that
it will occupy two channels on your PI system!
Upon delivery, all PI Spread/Depth sensors are set up with
factory default channels and update rates. Refer to the table in
section About sensor configuration on page 13.
Note
The sensor and the PI system setup must correspond, otherwise
the communication will not work. To change the sensor setup
(channel selection and update rate), use the PI Configurator
utility. See PI Configurator on page 15.
Observe the following basic configuration settings:
• When you put the PI Spread/Depth to use, you must set it up
with two unique sensor numbers. Select the same update rate
for both, and use channel numbers according to the sensor's
configuration. Write down this configuration for future
reference. For default settings, refer to the table in section
About sensor configuration on page 13.
• On the receiver, the Interference filter must be switched
on. Set it to Level 9 if you have noise problems from other
hydroacoustic sources. Note that this filters will influence the
signal spectrum shown in the
• We recommend that you set the Sensor filter to Light.
The PI Spread/Depth sensor can not be used on the Simrad PI32
system.
This procedure explains how to set up the PI44 and PI54 catch
monitoring systems to access the information provided by the PI
Spread/Depth sensor. For more detailed information about the
settings and parameters, refer to the relevant Operator manuals.
