Scala | V7 | System Configuration
Note: If you have not given a port/starboard location to hydrophones when configuring
them, you need to go back to hydrophone configuration page.

In Algorithm group, select Compensate to take into account the misalignment.

Calculations for Positioning System
When configuring the positioning system on Scala receiver page, you should consider the position
of the hydrophones. When they are misaligned, you can calculate their misalignment angles with
the following calculations.
Tip: A spreadsheet is available on Marport support website to help you doing these
calculations. Go to Installers > Scala Resources.
Note: Baseline length is the distance between two hydrophones. It must be in meters.
There are two misalignment angles that you should calculate. Misalignment Z is the more critical
for correct positioning data. Make sure these calculations are correct if you enter them in Scala.
The drawings below show the misalignment angles and how to calculate them:
Misalignment X (angular offset around X axis) Misalignment Z (angular offset around Z axis)
