Scala2 | Version 5 | System Configuration

Outputting Scala2 Symmetry Data to Scantrol

You can output across speed data from Scala2 to Scantrol iSYM application.

Before you begin

• You need to have iSYM version 3.5.10 (beta version) and above
• Make sure you have a license to use Marport software with Scantrol.

Procedure

1.

Scantrol and Marport computers must be connected together via an Ethernet wired network.
Both computers must be on the same sub-network to communicate with each other:
192.168.0.XX.
For example, the network IP address can be set at 

192.168.0.10

 on Scantrol computer and at

192.168.0.12

 on Marport computer. The subnet mask address is 255.255.255.0 for both.

2.

In Scala2, go to 

Settings

 > 

NMEA Outputs

.

3.

In 

Port Settings

, select 

UDP port

.

4.

Enter a port number, for example 

5000

, and leave 

Interface

 at 

Any

.

Note: 

 The port number must be different from the one on which Scantrol data are

received (if applicable).

5.

 In 

Data to Emit

,

a)

Select 

Emit Sensor Data

 > 

Raw data

.

b)

Select 

Emit only selected data types

, then select 

Water Speed Along

 and 

Water Speed

Across

.
