CC00013 CONFIG BitMaskMonthsIceDetectionActive NUMBER This parameter indicates for which months the ice detection algorithm is active. The bit mask is input as a 3 digit hexadecimal value in the mission file sent to the float. This parameter in the metadata file however is the decimal number of that hexadecimal value. For example for the Southern Hemisphere the default position is to have the ice detection algorithm active for all months except February. (The hexadecimal value in the mission file is 'FFD' and the number for the configuration parameter in the metafile would be 4093). The northern hemisphere default would be all months active except for August. In this case the hexadecimal value is 'F7F' and the number in the configuration parameter in the metafile would be 3967). 2023-05-02
CC00014 CONFIG BitMaskMonthsIceEvasionActive NUMBER When is ice evasion active - months in reverse order. This is a parameter for AC1 which provides the months it should be used. 2023-05-02
CC00015 CONFIG BuoyancyMinimum COUNT The minimum allowable buoyancy position in counts, overriding any other count setting. This configuration parameter prevents the movement of oil from the oil compartment of the bladder into the oil reservoir at the specified count to manage the maximum depth of a descent. In general CONFIG_ BuoyancyMinimum_ COUNT should be set less than the CONFIG_ PistonProfile_ COUNT. 2023-05-02
CC00016 CONFIG BuoyancyNudgeToPark COUNT The number of counts to change the piston position from its current position in the direction that will bring the float closer to the Park depth. It is applied after three successive pressure samples that are outside the dead band specified by CONFIG_ PressureTargetToleranceDuringDrift_ dbar. 2023-05-02

CC00031 CONFIG CTDPumpStopPressureOffset dbar The pressure in decibars added to the most recently measured pressure at the surface, the sum of which is the pressure at which the conductivity, temperature and pressure sampling stops for a pumped type CTD. It is also the pressure at which the Surface phase begins. 2023-05-02
CC00032 CONFIG CTDPumpStopPressurePlusThreshold dbar The sum of CONFIG_ CTDPumpStopPressure_ dbar plus a pressure threshold or overlap (Poverlap). For PROVOR floats, Poverlap is defined as follows: Poverlap = bin_ size/2 for PROVOR floats with software versions < 5816A00 and ARVOR floats with software versions < 5605A00.Poverlap = 0.5 dbar for PROVOR floats with software versions >= 5816A00 and ARVOR floats with software versions >=5605A00. 2023-05-02
CC00030 CONFIG CTDPumpStopPressure dbar The pressure at which the CTD pump is switched off. As the float ascends, the code looks at the pressure and if <= CONFIG_ CTDPumpStopPressure, the CTD is turned off. CTDPumpStopPressure is a firmware threshold and as such, data may continue to be collected for a limited span after the threshold is recognized. Especially in floats that return high resolution discrete data, there might be data collected shallower than the cut off, due to the discrete nature of the pressure data and also due to the time necessary for the firmware to turn off the CTD once the pressure threshold is reached. For example for SOLOII floats the CTD is switched off at 1dbar, and typically the shallowest data is from 0.5 to 0.8 dbar. This shallow data should be carefully assessed for its validity. 2023-05-02

CC00026 CONFIG ConnectionFailureTimeOut minutes Is the maximum time allowed for the float to connect to the RUDICS server; i.e. it tries to connect during 30 minutes (values set for these floats) if it fails it is probably because it is under ice (that has not been detected by ISA or hanging algorithms). 2023-05-02
CC00027 CONFIG ConnectionInitialTimeOut seconds Connection time-out allowed for initial connection to the RUDICS server - i.e. is the maximum time allowed for the float to connect to the RUDICS server; i.e. it tries to connect during 30 minutes (values set for these floats) if it fails it is probably because it is under ice (that has not been detected by ISA or hanging algorithms). 2023-05-02

CC00033 CONFIG CycleTime hours For APEX and ARVOR floats this is the total duration of one cycle, usually 240 hours (10 days). For SOLO floats this is the total duration of one cycle, assuming that all float operations reach their full time-out intervals before moving to the next float stage. Typically the actual cycle time will be shorter than this value. 2023-05-02
CC00034 CONFIG DebugBits NUMBER Awaiting clarification. A request is in with Webb for more information 2023-05-02
CC00037 CONFIG DeepProfileFirstFloat LOGICAL Some APEX floats are set to do a "profile on deployment". This means that when the float is deployed it skips the drift phase at the PARKING depth and sinks directly to the PROFILE depth and starts ascending for the first profile. Independent of the Park and Profile cycle length, the first profile is always a Deep Profile that begins at the Profile Depth. This means the float returns a CTD profile relatively soon, typically less than a day, after the float is deployed. This feature supports comparison of the initial float profile with a conventional CTD cast from the ship. The result is that the first cycle is of shorter duration with a profile depth equal to PROFILE configuration pressure (regardless of the CONFIG_ ParkAndProfileCycleCounter_ COUNT configuration information). (Yes = 1, No = 0). 2023-05-02

CC00040 CONFIG DescentAdjustmentToBuoyancy seconds Commonly cited as 'buoyancy nudge', this controls the descent rate, units could be COUNT or whatever is reported, i.e. for SOLOII it is seconds pump is run to adjust float descent rate from drift depth to profile depth. The SOLO-II floats are ballasted for profile depth, if the floats are poorly ballasted, float will descend quite fast to profile depth. The more pumping that is done at 1000db that is unnecessary at 2000db will save energy and it can be used as an energy saving measure. Occasionally this means the float will stop short of profile depth but won't have grounded. 2023-05-02
CC00042 CONFIG DescentSpeedMin mm/s Float minimum descent speed before activating the valve. 2023-05-02
CC00041 CONFIG DescentSpeed mm/s Descent speed during downcast (can be used to estimate the time to descent from parking pressure to profile pressure). Changeable via 2-way communications. 2023-05-02

CC00062 CONFIG GroundingModeDeepZoneThickness dbar In case of grounding during the "descent to profile depth" phase, this parameter (PM18 in float user manual) defines the thickness of a new deep zone (from profile start pressure) for the purpose of data reduction. The thickness of the slices is 1 dbar in this zone. Should be set to 0 to disable this function. 2023-05-02
CC00063 CONFIG GroundingModeForProfileDepth NUMBER Action performed by the float when a grounding is detected during descent to profile depth. For PROVOR CTS5 floats: 2: the float stays on the seabed until the ascent start time, 3: the ascent starts immediately. In this float version the actions to be performed when a grounding is detected at parking depth (stored in CONFIG_ GroundingMode_ NUMBER) or at profile depth (stored in CONFIG_ GroundingModeForProfileDepth_ NUMBER) may differ. Consequently we need 2 configuration parameters. 2023-05-02

CC00061 CONFIG GroundingMode LOGICAL Action performed by the float when a grounding is detected. 0: the float changes its drift pressure, 1: the float stays on the seabed until the next phase of the cycle. For PROVOR CTS5 the number assigned to each mode has changed - see float manual for details for this model. 2023-05-02
CC00066 CONFIG HangingMode NUMBER Action performed by the float when a hanging is detected (see float manual for details). [JP additional comments on behaviour for PROVOR floats: The hanging mode is the same idea as the grounding mode but for an ascent phase. When the float detects a too low vertical motion after having activated its pump to try to ascend it enters in a hanging mode (it is probably stuck at the sea floor). This parameter configures (with the same idea as CONFIG_ GroundingMode_ NUMBER for grounding) what should be the actions to perform to try to escape from hanging (it can activate its pump and valve alternatively to try to escape or abandon the ascent and switch to the next scheduled task]. 2023-05-02
CC00067 CONFIG HydraulicDataTransmission LOGICAL The float transmits hydraulic data at the end of the cycle.

CC00068 CONFIG HyperRetractionStopPressure dbar For Apex APF11 Iridium floats, Hyper Retraction is used to pull in an amount of oil to temporarily increase a float’s density as it leaves the ocean surface. The result of the increased float density allows a float to move through a mixed density layer more easily or allows a float to descend at a faster rate. In particular, the HyperRetractPressure is the pressure that the float uses to restore the piston back to the ParkDescentCount. 2023-05-02

Concerning ice detection and avoidance, the float uses 3 algorithms: 1) AC1: it stops profiles at a given depth for given months in the year; 2) ISA: the (well known) ISA algorithm which determines possible ice coverage from TEMP (and PSAL in this case) measurements; 3) AID: the Acoustic Ice Detection which used an acoustic altimeter to detect ice at sea surface]. 2023-05-02

A setting of 0 0 disables TelemetryDays, and the float attempts telemetry during each Surface Phase. 2023-05-02
CC00092 CONFIG IceDetectionFirstTelemetryDay NUMBER First day of the year during which telemetry is attempted during the Surface phase. When the float surfaces on a day that is not specified, it does not attempt telemetry and immediately begins the Park Descent phase for the next profiling cycle. TelemetryDays are specified with a start day and an end day. The start day is the first day of the transmit season for the year. The end day is the last day of the transmit season for the year. A setting of 0 0 disables TelemetryDays, and the float attempts telemetry during each Surface Phase. 2023-05-02

For this firmware Mar 2018 the values are (0: not used, 1: algorithm based on temperature median value, 2: algorithm based on temperature median value and associated salinities) 2023-05-02

When it has completed the specified number of cycles, the float will continue with the next profiling cycle.Range: 0–24 cyclesIf IceDescentCycles is disabled, the float will try to detect an ice cap if it cannot find the sky. If IceDescentCycles is enabled, the float will not try to detect the ice cap and will operate in accordance with “Ice Descent and Ice Ascent Cycles” where it tries to drift out from under an ice cap. 2023-05-02
CC00076 CONFIG IceDetectionMaxDaysNoTransmission NUMBER Maximum delay (in days/cycles) of no transmission due to the ice detection algorithm. This parameter is used to disable the ice detection algorithm and force the float to surface even if ice is detected. 2023-05-02

CC00086 CONFIG IceDetectionSpringInhibitionAscentEnd dbar Ice evasion depth for the spring inhibition part of the ISA algorithm. "Spring inhibition" is the first step of the ISA algorithm.

CC00087 CONFIG IceDetectionSpringInhibitionDelaySinceLastIceEvasion NUMBER Maximum delay (in days/cycles) since the last ice evasion date to attempt a surfacing. This is often called the "Spring", where the float stays underwater for a time even though the temperature has warmed. "Spring inhibition" is the first step of the ISA algorithm. If the ISA algorithm raised (with the TEMP comparison) a profile evasion in the last CONFIG_ IceDetectionSpringInhibitionDelaySinceLastIceEvasion_ NUMBER days, the profile is aborted (without entering in the TEMP comparison loop) at CONFIG_ IceDetectionSpringInhibitionAscentEnd_ dbar. 2023-05-02
CC00088 CONFIG IceDetectionStartPressure dbar Start pressure of the ice detection algorithm. The float collects T and S samples from CONFIG_ IceDetectionMixedLayerPMax_ dbar (=50dbar) but starts the TEMP comparison at CONFIG_ IceDetectionStart_ dbar (=20dbar). Thus, the samples collected between 50 and 20 dbar are used for the first TEMP comparison. 2023-05-02
CC00094 CONFIG IceDetectionTelemetryTimeout minutes The amount of time in minutes allowed for the float to complete telemetry. A setting of 0 disables IceTelemetryTimeout, and the time available is instead determined by the remaining UpTime of the Ascent phase. 2023-05-02

CC00107 CONFIG MaxDelayBeforeCycleStart minutes The maximum extra time a float can stay on the surface after transmitting. This feature is used for SOLOII floats to try and make them stay in a particular area, e.g. near the equator for equatorial floats. If a float is drifting at the surface and moving in the direction we want, we turn the feature on to keep it drifting at the surface in a favourable direction. If the float is moving in a direction we don't want, then we turn this feature off, so the float dives immediately. Changeable via 2-way communications. 2023-05-02

CC00118 CONFIG OilVolumeMaxPerPumpActionReposition cm^3 This information is used as a threshold for the pump action duration for reposition in the parking drift interval. The pump flow is known for each float and CONFIG_ OilVolumeMaxPerPumpActionReposition_ cm^3 is converted to a maxDurationOfPumpActionReposition.

CC00120 CONFIG OilVolumeMinForGroundingDetection cm^3 This information is a threshold used to detect a grounding of the float. If there is no vertical motion after having transferred CONFIG_ OilVolumeMinForGroundingDetection_ cm^3 through the valve, the grounded flag is activated and the float acts as configurated by the CONFIG_ GroundingMode_ LOGICAL parameter. This is a configuration parameter that may be modified via remote control, as some PROVOR floats have experienced erroneous grounding detection (under study but perhaps due to in-situ conditions). 2023-05-02
CC00121 CONFIG OilVolumeMinPerValveAction cm^3 This information is used as a threshold for the valve action durations. The valve flow is known for each float and CONFIG_ OilVolumeMinPerValveAction_ cm^3 is converted to a minDurationOfValveAction.
