The Mount parameters tab
The Mount Parameters parameters tab in the Edit Vessel Configuration dialog.
The Mount Parameters parameters tab contains four to seven tabs dependent on the multibeam echo sounder setup. The options are:
- Single transducer for both transmit (TX) and receive (RX)
- Single TX and single RX transducertransducers
- Single TX and dual RX transducers
- Dual TX and dual RX transducers

The Processing parameters tab
The Processing Parameters parameters tab in the Edit Vessel Configuration dialog.
The Processing parameters tab has three tabs for setting parameters:
- Sources
Define the sources for the processing dependent on the hardware and datagram content. For example define if the XYZ coordinates shall be calculated from the Swath data (depth data) or from the Range data. Or define if the heading value should be applied from the depth datagram, motion sensor datagram, a position datagram or be replaced by input from an external file. - Swath Data
Will turn on and off use of offset parameters and motion sensor values for depth (swath) datagrams. Often the swath data are corrected for all motions when they are saved as x, y and depth values relative to the ship position. If the survey line file does not contain any depth datagram, this tab will not be available. - Range Data
Will turn on and off use of offset parameters and motion sensor values for range datagrams. Will be used if the source for XYZ conversion source is set to Range Data. The range data are the time measurements from the transmitter and back to the receiver. The processing to xyz involves all the mounting offsets, the motion sensor values, the sound velocity data and the tide data. If the survey line file does not contain any range datagram, this tab will not be available.
