Remote Display
The SBE 14 Remote Display can display depth, pressure, and/or altimeter
height for a CTD system.
To enable and set up the Remote Display:
1. In the Configure menu, select Remote Display. The Remote Display
Configuration dialog box appears:
Make the desired selections and click OK.
Notes:
• To set up the SBE 14’s
alarm, see Alarms above.
• Remote Display setup in
SEASAVE is applicable
only for an SBE 14
connected to a computer
COM port. If the SBE 14 is
connected directly to an
SBE 11plus Deck Unit,
Remote Display setup is
done by sending commands
to the SBE 11plus using
SEATERM.
Fresh or Salt water - affects
SEASAVE’s depth calculation.
Must be selected to enable
sending data to SBE 14, and
to enable Remote Display
Alarm (see Alarms above).
Updates at a very fast rate could make
display difficult to read. Additionally,
time between updates interacts with
data output baud rate (set internally in
SBE 14 to 300 baud; cannot be
changed) and number of variables
transmitted. SEASAVE will not work
properly if data is presented to COM
port faster than COM port can transmit it
to SBE 14 at 300 baud.
