Setup for Deployment
1. Install new batteries or ensure the existing batteries have enough capacity
to cover the intended deployment (see Replacing/Recharging Batteries in
Section 5: Routine Maintenance and Calibration).
2. Program the 19plus V2 for the intended deployment using Seaterm232
(see Section 3: Power and Communications Test for connection
information; see this section for setup/configuration, sampling modes,
pump operation, and commands):
A. Set the date and time (DateTime=).
B. Ensure all data has been uploaded, and then send InitLogging to
make the entire memory available for recording. If InitLogging is not
sent, data will be stored after the last recorded sample.
C. Establish the setup and logging parameters.
If you will be using Seasave to acquire and view real-time data,
you must set OutputFormat=0 (raw hexadecimal).
D. Send GetCD or DS to verify the setup.
E. If desired, use StartDateTime= and StartLater to establish delayed
start date and time for Profiling mode (if IgnoreSwitch=Y) or
Moored mode.
3. If you will be using Seasave to acquire and view real-time data, verify that
the configuration (.xmlcon or .con) file matches the instrument
configuration. Sea-Bird supplies a configuration file to match the factory
configuration and calibrations. If the instrument is recalibrated or the
configuration is changed (such as by adding external sensors), the
configuration file must be updated to reflect the current condition. See
Verifying Contents of Configuration (.xmlcon or .con) File.
4. If you will be using Seaterm232 to view real-time data, click the Capture
menu to save the data to a file. Enter the desired capture file name in the
dialog box, and click Save.
A new or recalibrated CTD ships
with a configuration file that reflects
the current configuration as we
know it. The file is named with the
instrument serial number, followed
by a .xmlcon extension. For
example, for a CTD with serial
number 2375, Sea-Bird names the
file 2375.xmlcon. You may rename
the file (but not the extension) if
desired; this will not affect the
results.
