PRINCIPLE OF MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLE OF MEASUREMENT, FEATURES When a moving vessel emits an acoustical pulse into the water at an angle, a portion of emitted energy is reflected from the seabed and other microscopic objects in the sound path, such as plankton or air bubbles. The frequency of the received signal is shifted from the transmitted frequency in proportion to relative velocity between the vessel and underwater reflecting objects. This is called Doppler Effect. The CI-80 calculates and di

Nav Tide Nav-Tide is an absolute movement of watermass at a particular depth, taking speed information from the external navigator (GPS) as a pseudo ground tracking speed. To calculate Nav-tide, the following two data are required: 1 Ship’s speed and course obtained by external navigation equipment (GPS) 2 Ship’s speed and course based on measuring layer (A) Nav-tide is, then, given as a difference of these two speed vectors. 1 2 Absolute Tide = – GPS satellites 1 Nav-aided speed (Pseudo

Speed of layer A based on ground (C1) can be calculated as follows: C1 = Vg – Vwa = 10 – 7 = 3 (kt) Nav-Tide (Absolute tide) Absolute tide can be measured in the nav-aided mode. Nav-aided ship’s speed (Vn) is equivalent to ship’s ground tracking speed in the ideal conditions. That is, the nav-tide can be calculated by simply replacing Vg with Vn in the above equation. Tide Differential Tide differential is a relative movement of tides at different depths. It can be measured in the ground trackin

Assuming that the ship, layer A and layer B are moving in the same direction, and ship’s speeds based on layer A (Vwa) and on layer B (Vwb) are measured as; Vwa = 8 kt (Ship’s speed based on layer A) Vwb = 5 kt (Ship’s speed based on layer B) Tide differential calculations in ground tracking mode As an absolute ship’s speed (Vg) is available in the ground tracking mode, tide speeds of layer A (C1) and layer B (C2) based on ground are calculated as follows: C1 = Vg - Vwa (Speed of layer A based o

[READ THIS FIRST!!] IMPORTANT NOTICE ON TIDE MEASUREMENTS (In the nav-aided mode, tide accuracy depends heavily on gyro accuracy.) SETTING SHIP’S HEADING The CI-80 has the nav-aided mode to measure absolute tides even in deep waters where ground tracking is unattainable. To achieve reliable measurements, however, you must supply accurate heading (gyro) information and ship’s position (or speed/course) data to the CI-80. If you are going to use the nav-aided mode, set the reading of the AD conve

Features The CI-80 mainly consists of three units: a display unit, a transceiver unit, and a transducer, each compact enough to fit on small boats. The main features of the CI-80 are; • Even in deep waters where ground (bottom) reference is not available acoustically, the CI-80 can provide absolute movements of measuring layers by receiving position (or speed) data from GPS navigator and heading data from gyro compass. It may be used on deep sea fishing boats or on ocean research vessels. • Trip

MAIN MENU DESCRIPTION Most major functions of the CI-80 are carried out through an easy-to-follow menu system. The menu system consists of two main groups of menus: main (operation) and system (testing, calibration). This chapter covers the main menu. For complete menu tree, see page 36. Basic Menu Operation Most major functions of the CI-80 are carried out through an easy-to-follow menu system. Two general types of menus are used: main (operation) and system (testing).
