Low SNR, advanced menu
We are working with a vectrino in a labaratory flume with verlocities of about 10 cm/s and debths of 30 cm. Here are the probe check results:
Noise level: 85
Peak Level: 110
Peak Pos.: 100
We tried already tried seeding but the results were hardly better. We read some postings in the forum about changing the signal level in the advanced menu.
Were is the advanced menu?
Thanks
Frank
Dear Frank
The noise level is suspiciously high. Please see if you can make it come down by turning off engines that may be running or by moving the Vectrino around. Also make sure the Vectrino transmit power is set to "High".
Best regards,

Dear Mr. Lohrmann,
thanks for your reply, we will do some test on running engines ect. One question remains: Were can I set the transmit power?
Best regards

Dear Mr. Seidel,
The transmit power is set under power level in the lower left corner of the configuration screen (Data Collection -> Edit Configuration). This setting is used both for regular velocity measurements as well as during probe check.
Best regards,
Sven Nylund
