Support for BioSonics model 102 tuples

Echoview can read the following BioSonics Model 102 tuples from .hac data files:

  • BioSonics model 102 echosounder (100)

  • BioSonics model 102 channel (1000)

  • BioSonics model 102 channel (1001)

Read support for BioSonics model 102 channel (1000) tuples is limited as follows:

  • Only hardware channels 1 (narrow beam) and 2 (wide beam) are supported as raw variables

  • Data from hardware channel 3 (if present) will be ignored

  • Only channels containing volts data are supported

  • Only channels with 20 log R TVG are supported

  • Volts data are converted to Sv data

  • Conversion of volts data to TS data is not provided

  • Calibration is limited to entering a calibration offset

  • The multiplexing mode field in the echosounder tuple is ignored

Read support for BioSonics model 102 channel (1001) tuples is limited as follows:

  • Absorption of sound field read and used for calibration
