Recording Sonar Data

4.8.4 Lag
On the right side of the Main tool bar is the
Lag
display as shown in Figure 4-23.
Here you monitor the performance of SonarPro, and it provides a level of
confidence that no sonar data are being lost. If at any time SonarPro is overloaded,
such as having too many tasks to perform, the status box will begin to increment.
When the incrementing number reaches the set threshold, the background will turn
red. In general, the count can increment to a number above 200 before you begin to
near the data loss point. If the count begins to increase and does not decrement
back to zero, by closing a window or two the count should go back to zero.
Left-click in the
Lag
display to open the Ping Lag dialog box shown in
Figure 4-24. Here you can set a ping lag threshold and a time interval for SonarPro
to check the ping status. An audible beep may also be enabled.
4.9 Recording Sonar Data
Data Recorder
Click this button to record data. The Sonar Data Recorder dialog box will open as
shown in Figure 4-25.
The Sonar Data Recorder dialog box allows you to specify the recorder
parameters for saving the survey data. When operating SonarPro with the Series
5000, only the
Record to SDF disk file
area will be active. When operating
SonarPro with the Series 3000, both the
Record to SDF disk file
and
Record to
XTF disk file
areas will be active. You can record in either or both file formats at
the same time. SonarPro will only play back XTF data that have been recorded by
SonarPro.

recommended; for slower computers you may have to use 15 to 20 seconds.
