How do I collect 199 data and what is it?
FollowIf you've been having performance issues with your DVL and have been in contact with us for troubleshooting and evaluation of your vehicle or application we may have asked you for 199 data.
199 data is a custom data format that is used for high level evaluation and diagnostics of a DVL. As such it creates a large amount of data that cannot be streamed in real time and requires custom commands to enable. 199 data is saved locally to the DVL's SD card and must be recovered post deployment over an ethernet connection, or alternatively, removal and direct download from the SD card. This data should only be collected when requested, and disabled immediately after, as well as having the recorder erased. This is due to the size of the data filling up the SD card fairly quickly which may impact the intended application.
The commands to enable 199 data collection are as follows:
SETDVL,FN=”TESTDATA”
SETBTHW,NDFEN=199
SAVE,CONFIG
Disabling diagnostic data is done by replacing 199 with 0, and FN=””:
SETDVL,FN=””
SETBTHW,NDFEN=0
SAVE,CONFIG
Note that the quotation marks may not be correct when copy/pasting these commands, so it is advised to manually input the commands to ensure the characters are valid.
