Adding a new sensor that must be configured prior to use
Before the information from the catch monitoring sensor can be received and displayed
the sensor must be configured. When you want to put a new catch monitoring sensor
to use, you need to add it to the system.
Prerequisites
In order to read the data from a catch monitoring sensor, you must first connect one or
more receivers to the Processor Unit. This procedure assumes that a suitable receiver
unit has been connected to the Processor Unit, and that all relevant communication
parameters have been defined.
This procedure assumes that a sensor is connected to the computer with the configuration
cable.
Context
Catch monitoring sensors are delivered from Kongsberg Maritime readily set up with
common default settings. Each individual sensor can be configured to specify its
communication channel, which measurements to make and some other relevant operating
parameters. This is specially important if you wish to use several sensors to operate on
different communication channels. This is also important to avoid interference if several
vessels equipped with identical catch monitoring systems are operating simultaneously
in the same area.
The
Add New Sensor
dialog box starts a "wizard" that permits you to select the specific
catch monitoring sensor you want to put to use. If relevant, the "wizard" provides the
necessary configuration functionality.
Note
The TV80 program only allows you to configure PX sensors. If you wish to use older
sensors (not PX family), these must be configured using their dedicated applications
before you add them.
The number of sensors you can add depends on your hardware configuration.
