A2.2.3 Data Block Structures
This section defines the various data block structures in the “C” programming language.
The structure
AdvSystemConfigType
defines the hardware configuration parameters (24 bytes).
typedef struct {
unsigned char SoftwareVerNum;
unsigned char DspSoftwareVerNum;
char
AdvType; /* 0-10MHz,5cm 1-10MHz,10cm 2-OCEAN */
char SensorOrientation; /* 0-down; 1-up; 2-side */
char CompassInstalled; /* 0-No; 1-Yes */
char RecorderInstalled; /* 0-No; 1-Yes */
char TempInstalled; /* 0-No; 1-Yes */
char PressInstalled; /* 0-No; 1-Yes */
long PressScale; /* nano bar per count */
long PressOffset; /* micro bar */
int CompassOffset; /* Degress to East of North */
char PressFreqOffset; /* Frequency Pres Sensor Offset kHz */
char ExtSensorInstalled; /* External sensors on AD channels: */
/*
0 None */
/* 1 Standard (ch 1/3) */
/* 2-5 OBS (ch 1, 2, 3) */
char ExtPressInstalled; /* Ext Press sensor: */
/* 1-Paros 2-Druck 3-ParosFreq */
int PressScale_2; /* pico bar per count^2 */
char CtdSensorInstalled; /* 1 if MicroCat CTD, 2 if LISST */
} AdvSystemConfigType;
The structure
AdvConfType
defines the probe configuration information (164 bytes).
typedef struct {
unsigned char FileType;
unsigned char FileVer;
DateType
FileDate;
long FileNbytes;
char SerialNum[6];
char ProbeType; /* 3/2-d orientation */
char ProbeSize; /* 0-5cm probe; 1-10cm probe */
int ProbeNbeams;
int NomPeakPos; /* in Timing cycles */
int Nsamp; /* Samples per pulse */
int SampInterval; /* Ram cycles between samples */
int PulseLag[5][3]; /* Up to 3 lags per range */
int Nxmt[5][3]; /* Pulse length */
int LagDelay[5][3]; /* Up to 3 lags per range */
int BeamDelay; /* Additional delay between beams*/
int PingDelay; /* Additional delay between pings*/
float XformMat[9]; /* From Beam to XYZ veloc. */
float XmtRecDist; /* in m */
float CalCw; /* Cal Sound speed (m/s) */
} AdvConfType;
The structure
AdvDeploymentSetupType
defines deployment configuration parameters (253 bytes).
typedef struct {
unsigned char ConfigType; /* Type 0x12 */
unsigned char ConfigVer; /* Version 0x01 */
unsigned int Nbytes; /* Bytes in configuration */
DateTimeType ConfigTime; /* Date created or last modified */
int Temp; /* 0.1 deg C */
int Sal; /* 0.1 ppt */
int Cw; /* 0.1 m/s */
