4.
Send the setup commands from the table above to #=1 or #=2, the serial port on the
25plus that the sensor is connected to.
5.
Set up the sensor to store data inline, in the 25plus .xml file, or standalone, in a .txt
file.
Store data inline in .xml file (SetInlineSer#=Y)
When data from the SeaOWL is stored inline with the 25plus .xml data, the tabs are
replaced with spaces. The tab character, carriage return and line feed (CRLF) are
reserved. The CRLF is removed from the serial data before it is saved. If the output from
the sensor is more than one line, that is lost.
Command
Description
SetNameSer#=
String, 0–10 characters, for information only when data is stored in-line.
SetInlineSer#=Y
Store serial sensor data in memory inline with T, C, P, and auxiliary voltage sensor data
in .xml file.
SetSuppressSer#=N
Y or N. The termination character and CRLF is automatically removed in this setup.
Store data in .txt file (SetInlineSer#=N)
When the SeaOWL data is stored in a .txt file, it includes the data and tabs and
termination characters.
Command
Description
SetNameSer#=
String, 0–10 characters, for information only when data is stored in-line.
SetInlineSer#=N
Store serial sensor data in memory inline in a standalone .txt file.
SetSuppressSer#=N
Include termination character (SetTermCharSer#=) and prompt (SetPromptSer#=) in data
file.
9.1.4 Set up and store SUNA data
The SUNA V2 oerates and collects data when power is supplied, so it is not necessary to
send a command to collect data.
1.
Connect the SUNA to a PC and supply power.
2.
Use the manufacturer-supplied UCI software to configure the sensor.
•
Baud rate: 38400
•
Operational mode: Continuous
•
Logging level: WARN
3.
Disconnect the SUNA from the PC when it is configured and connect it to the 25plus.
4.
Send the setup commands from the table above to #=1 or #=2, the serial port on the
25plus that the sensor is connected to.
5.
Set up the sensor to store data in a .txt file.
The SUNA data is stored internally by the 25plus as a .txt file. Data from a serial sensor is
not transmitted in real-time. Use Seaterm V2 to transmit data from the 25plus, or use the
USB connection to copy the data. If the SUNA is set to store data internally, that data can
be transmitted from the SUNA to a PC.
Look at and process data in the UCI software
It is necessary to use the Instrument Package File and the SUNA calibration file to look at
the total absorbance data in UCI.
1.
Select the
Data
menu, then
SUNA
, then "Replay Logged Data."
2.
Push
Browse
to select the .txt raw data file (transmitted from the 25plus, or saved to
the PC). In the
Select Raw File
window, select "All files" in "Files of type" to use
the .txt file type.
3.
Push
Browse
to select the .xml file.
