6. ADCP / Site Info

This table provide information about the ADCP and its configuration. ADCPs with auto-adaptive water and bottom modes and frequencies may display “Variable” or a range of values representative of the data collected. The Station Name and Station Number can be edited by typing in the edit box.

The Station Name and Station Number are read from the loaded data. They can be edited by typing in the box containing the name or number.

           These options are seldom used and can only be accessed by opening the ADCP / Site Info window and pressing Alt-g.

 

The Processing Setting panel allows the user to change the processing algorithms and global filter settings used to compute discharge. The Processing Setting defaults to QRev and the filter setting defaults to Automatic for all data types. The Automatic filter setting turns most of the filters in QRev to an Auto setting, meaning these filters will be applied to the data using preset values or preset dynamic algorithms. The extrapolation is also set to the automatically selected methods. The navigation reference is set to whatever reference was set in the loaded data.

 

The user can switch the processing type among SonTek, TRDI, or QRev. Switching the processing type changes the way invalid data are interpolated and handled. The user can also change the filter settings to the filter settings used in the original data (Original as Loaded). If a filter is not supported by the manufacturer and does not have a setting, that filter is turn off. For QRev to process the data like RSL, the user would select SonTek, wait until QRev finishes processing that request, and then click on Original as Loaded. This combination will process the data similarly to RSL. Likewise, to process data like WR2, the user would select TRDI and then click on Original as Loaded. The user can use the Automatic button to turn all filters to Automatic if changes have been made using other windows in QRev.
