User manual SIMRAD PI REMOTE QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE REV A

[. . . ] Quick reference guide Simrad PI Remote/Depth dual sensor Purpose The purpose of the PI Remote/ Depth sensor is to achieve accurate measurements of both the water depth and the distance between the two trawl doors. In order to measure the distance, it must be installed in a pair with a PI Spread or PI Spread/Depth sensor. [. . . ] (B) The Remote/Depth sensor is mounted in an adapter on the starboard door. (C) The Spread sensor communicates the distance between the trawl doors to the PI system on the vessel. (D) The Remote/Depth sensor communicates the current depth of the trawl door to the PI system on the vessel. (E) Using the transverse communication link, the two C sensors measure the distance between the trawl doors. Main items (A) Negative charging & fastening lug (B) Positive charging & fastening lug (C) Communication link to the vessel (D) Transverse communication link (E) Spread and Remote set identification (F) Water switch with sacrificial bolt (G) Sensor identification label for the sensors, but they must also allow for free water circulation to allow the sensor's water switch to engage. Also, the design of the inserts allows sand and mud to flow out when the trawl doors are pulled up from the water. Sensor configuration On delivery, all Spread sensors are configured as follows: Remote: Remote 1 Depth: Channel 11, 15 or 13 / Fast Note: The sensor and the PI system setup must correspond, otherwise the communication will not work. To change the setup, use the PI D B E A G F (CD012201A) Configurator utility. The sensor update rate controls how often the sensor reads and reports the depth. Note that a faster update rate will decrease the battery life. Numerical presentation The numerical presentation of the PI Remote/Depth data is automatically shown in the relevant display modes. [. . . ] (E) The transverse link between the two sensors is used to measure the distance. (F) Angle of attack. 302879 / Rev. A / December 2007 Simrad Kongsberg Maritime AS Strandpromenaden 50 P. O.
