When CX=1, stores the time interval between the center time,
or “time the ping hits the center of the water mass layer”, and
the time the Trigger was received by the DVL for the water mass
ping transmission.
When CX=0 (i.e. trigger disabled), stores time elapsed between
the center and the first character in the PD0 sentence.
Unit is 1µsec. Accuracy is within ± 5msec. Unsigned integer.
Note the value will be set to 0 if the water track ping is bad or if
there is a valid bottom track velocity solution.
