Sacrificial water switch
The water switch on your sensor is
a sacrificial brass screw. It must be
checked every month, and whenever
required due to wear and tear, it must
be replaced.

Mounting and installation
principles
The PI Remote/Depth sensor and
the Spread (or Spread/Depth) sensors
must be mounted in dedicated
adapters on each trawl door. These
adapters must be installed beforehand.
Detailed information on how to install
the adapters are provided with the
installation kit.
The PI Remote/Depth sensor is
mounted on the starboard door, while
the PI Spread (or PI Spread/Depth)
sensor is mounted on the port door.
Note: It is essential that there is a
clear line of sight between the two
transverse communication “eyes”
(one on each sensor). It is also
important that both the PI Spread (or
Spread/Depth) and the PI Remote/
Depth sensors have a clear line of
sight to the hydrophone on the vessel.
(A) The PI Spread (or Spread/Depth)
sensor is mounted on the port door.
(B) The PI Remote/Depth sensor is
mounted on the starboard door.
(C) Communication link between the
PI Spread (or Spread/Depth)
sensor and the PI hydrophone,
provides distance information.

Numerical presentation
The numerical presentation of the PI
Remote/Depth data is automatically
shown in the relevant display modes.
It is identical to the presentation
provided by the PI Depth sensor.
When the readings are stable, the
digits are shown in black colour. If the
contact is lost, the characters *** are
shown in grey.
If the depth is out of range, the
displays shows ??? .
