RecordCompass Set to YES
If
RecordCompass
=
YES
, an additional six bytes of data are recorded with each sample (assumes
the optional compass/tilt sensor is installed).
Datum Bytes Description
Heading 2 Heading angle in units of 0.1 degree
Pitch 2 Pitch angle in units of 0.1 degree
Roll 2 Roll angle in units of 0.1 degree
==
6
RecordSensor Set to YES
If
RecordSensor
=
YES
, an additional four bytes of data are recorded with each sample (assumes
the optional temperature and/or pressure sensor is installed).
Datum Bytes Description
Temperature 2 Temperature in units of 0.01°C
Pressure* 2 Pressure in units of counts (0-65535)
== *
Note: If
ExtSensor
=
3_OBS
, raw Ad Chan 3 data is displayed here.
4
RecordExtSensor Set to YES
If
RecordExtSensor
=
YES
, an additional four bytes of data are recorded with each sample (as-
sumes at least one optional external sensor is installed). The data corresponds to raw counts from
a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter.
Datum Bytes Description
Ad Chan 1 2 Data from sensor channel #1 in units of counts (0-65535)
Ad Chan 2 2 Data from sensor channel #2 in units of counts (0-65535)

RecordExtPress Set to YES
If
RecordExtPress
=
YES
, an additional three bytes of data are recorded with each sample (as-
sumes an optional external pressure sensor is installed).
Datum Bytes Description
ExtPressure 3 Data from external pressure sensor in milli-dbars (for
== Paros) or milli-Hz (for Druck and ParosFreq)
3
RecordCTD Set to YES
If
RecordCTD
=
YES
, an additional four bytes of data are recorded in a single record at the end of
the burst (i.e., not
at the end of each sample). This data contains the mean temperature, con-
ductivity, pressure, and salinity measured by an external MicroCat CTD throughout the burst.
Datum Bytes Description
Temp 1 Mean temperature from CTD sensor in 0.0001°C
Cond 1 Mean conductivity from CTD sensor in 0.00001 Siemen
Press 1 Mean pressure from CTD sensor in 0.001 dbar
Sal 1 Mean salinity from CTD sensor in 0.0001 psu
