3.6.9.
Profile => Auto Profile
RealTime only
Used to generate the Z (depth) component of the XYZ files via an auto increment function. This allows the user
to set the expected depth increment for successive scans and if the sonar is paid out at this rate, a realistic
profile will be generated of the internal surface of the structure / bore.
Figure 12 Auto Profile
See Figure 12 Auto Profile. The X, Y, and Z offsets from the reference point, as well as the payout increment
are set. If for example 0.1 m is set, the Z value logged in the XYZ file will increment by 0.1 m with every scan.
To ensure a realistic XYZ point cloud, the sonar should be lowered at a 0.1 m per scan rate during auto
profiling.
