Valeport Ocean

Valeport Ocean provides the ability to configure, control, download and export data from compatible Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) enabled Valeport instruments. Once paired with a compatible instrument, Valeport Ocean is packed with useful features including:

• Read and update instrument sampling setup parameters and site information
• Download recorded data from connected instrument
• View and select downloaded data via list or map view.
• Filter data by geographical location, time/date & instrument serial number.
• Display graphical and tabular records of downloaded data
• View statistics including minimum, maximum and mean for each parameter recorded
• View and compare current data with historical data
• Convert data into industry standard formats and share via email & cloud services
• Run in auto mode where new profiles are automatically downloaded when an instrument returns within range of the app.
• Once downloaded from the instrument, data is stored in the app and can be viewed, converted and exported at any time.
• Place instrument into low power sleep mode. While only one instrument can be connected to the app at a time, Valeport Ocean will remember multiple instruments. Valeport Ocean relies on Bluetooth Low Energy for communication with the instrument.
• Bluetooth must be enabled for the app to communicate with the instrument
• Reliable range of communication is 5-10m with direct line of sight.
• Any obstruction between the instrument and connected device will reduce this range.
• Bluetooth is blocked by water 100% and the connection will be lost instantly when the instrument is deployed underwater. Valeport Ocean can export data using the following methods:
• Email – uses default email client
• Dropbox – requires dropbox account
• Mass storage – OS dependent Valeport Ocean currently supports the following output formats and supports the output of multiple files in multiple formats:
• Valeport default (*.vp2)
• AML (*.csv)
• Caris (*.svp)
• ELAC (*.sva)
• Hypack (*.vel)
• Kongsberg (*.asvp)
• Reson Simplified Profile (*.svp)
• Reson Velocity Profile (*.log)
• Sonardyne Pro (*.pro)
• Sonardyne SPI (*.ssp)
