What is the difference between AST and LE?
The altimeter data from your instrument is processed in different ways, either with the AST (Acoustic Surface Tracking) or the LE (Leading Edge) method. Which method is used depends on the applicat...

What is the AST Quality parameter, and what can I use it for?
AWAC wave data and Signature wave data both contain a parameter called AST quality. This parameter gives an indication of the quality of your altimeter data collected with the AST method (see What ...

What is "measurement load"?
Measurement load is what percent of the instrument maximum internal sampling rate that the instrument use. A 100% measurement load means that the instrument pings as fast as it is able to. Conseque...

How can I improve the precision of my measurements?
When you are configuring your instrument for a deployment, your settings will affect the precision of the measurements. The precision is the theoretically estimated standard deviation of the measur...

How can I increase my profiling range?
The range of your measurements are mainly govern by fixed parameters like the transducer frequency (you can read more about which factors that affect your range in this FAQ). There are however a fe...

How do the Signature Deployment applications decide the sampling scheme?
When you are configuring your Signature instrument in the Signature Deployment software, the second step in the deployment wizard is "Application". This is where you choose what type of measurement...

How can I check which sampling scheme my Signature is set up to?
To get an overview of what data you will be collecting with a given configuration, and how the measurements are distributed in time, you can use the command READCFG in the terminal window after upl...

Will starting the instrument in air harm the transducers?
Starting the instrument and pinging in air will harm the instrument in any way. Actually, pinging in air is the way to decide the noise floor of the instrument (as described in the instrument manua...

Which application should I use for my Signature 1000 measurements?
When configuring your Signature instrument for deployment you can set it up to use one or several applications. Different applications gives you different types of data, and some of them requires s...
