#WJ – BroadBand Receiver Gain
Purpose
Allows the Sentinel V Real-Time ADCP to reduce receiver gain by 40 dB.
Format
#WJn
Range
n = 0 (low), 1 (high)
Default
#WJ1
Recommended Setting. The default setting for this command is recommended for most applications.
Description #WJ0 tells the Sentinel V Real-Time to reduce receiver gain by 40 dB. This may increase
data reliability in shallow-water applications where there is a high content of backscatter
material. #WJ1 (the default) uses the normal receiver gain.
#WT – Transmit Length
Purpose
Selects a transmit length different from the depth cell length (cell sampling interval) as set
Format
#WTnnnn
Range
nnnn = 0 to 3200 cm
Default
#WT0000
Recommended Setting. The default setting for this command is recommended for most applications.
Description When #WT is set to zero, the transmit signal is set to the depth cell size (WS-command).
This is the default setting. Setting #WT allows selection of a transmit length different than
the area depth cell size (sampling length).
