Trawl Explorer | V5 | Sensor Configuration

Configuring the Uplink Power

You can increase the uplink power of the sensor to increase the power of the signal transmitted. It
is useful if you have interferences or if the sensor is far from the vessel.

Before you begin

The sensor is connected to Mosa2.

Procedure

From Mosa2, click the tab

General

From

Uplink Power Adjustment Level

, choose the uplink power (values in percentage are for

Mosa version 01.02.00 and later):

Conditions

Estimated Battery Life

1000 / 32%

Works for most conditions.

60-75 hours

Trawl Explorer

1800 / 58%

• Sensor is far from vessel (e.g.

more than 800 m depending on
conditions, high depth, placed on
codend)

• High level of interferences
• Issues receiving data
• Low SNR

30-40 hours

Note:

The average battery life also depends on the uplink frequency, sounding range and

options activated.

Testing Measures

You can test the measures taken by the sensor (e.g. battery level, temperature, depth) to check that
there are no faults.

Before you begin

The sensor is connected to Mosa2.

Procedure

From Mosa2, click

Menu

Expert Mode

and enter the password
