1. Data Storage
• Data files are saved to the mobile device as long as a memory card is installed. This
eliminates the need to download files to process them if communications are not lost
during a measurement. Files saved on the computer are appended with the letter ‘r’, i.e.
*r.rivr.
• The system serial number is embedded in the compass calibration and system test file.
2. Temperature and Speed of Sound Correction
Water temperature and speed of sound can be manually input prior to a measurement and
in post-processing.
