Only some combinations of sensors are possible due to the limitations of the interface sensor
board as detailed in the attached table.
By default the sensor board the interface is configured to the connection with the Airmar 150-
WX meteorological station through the RS port-422 or RS-232 and the Impress tidal meter using
B RS-232 port. Contact your provider to configure the interface board to operate with other
devices.
The Sensor Interface Board can also be adapted to accept almost any equipment that can be
found in an AtoN application. If your application requires an interface with another device that
is not included in this list, contact your provider to discuss your requirements.
