3.6.6. Configuration files

• proc_cfg.py

  • contains info for processing: serial feeds used, transducer alignment

  • DO NOT adjust anything in this file.

• uhdas_cfg.py

  • contains info for email, web plots, bridge plots

  • DO NOT adjust anything in this file.

• sensor_cfg.py:

  • serial logging: (baud rates, ports, messages to be logged)

    • lists all ADCP instruments as a group

    • lists all serial inputs (with ADCPs as a subset)

3.6.6.1. sensor_cfg.py layout

3.6.6.1.1. File Layout

Sections exist to

• turn off sensors

• set up 2-way communication with ADCPs

• set up to collect data

3.6.6.1.2. ADCP dialog setup

Important considerations:

• EA command for Ocean Surveyor can be within 10deg

• NOTE that UHDAS does not use this field to calculate earth coordinates

3.6.6.1.3. Serial logging setup

Important considerations:

• ADCP code blocks must come first, in the same order as above

• fields subdir, ext, strings, messages, opt are documented in the code.
