Servlet Flags & Debug Messages

1

Overview

In Servlet Manager each servlet has its own set of messages that can be displayed to aid in system
management and trouble shooting. The different messages can be selected from the Servlet option in the
Menu Bar. The menu will be populated with the options related to the currently selected servlet.

Within the Servlet menu there are two generic options for every
servlet, Start and Stop. These allow the selected servlet to be stopped
and/or started indipendantly of the other servlets and TriggerFish
Services as a whole. While a servlet is running the Start option will be
greyed out and when the servlet is stopped the stop button will be
greyed out.

In the following sections each servlet and its corresponding flags will be gone
through separately with example outputs from each. A servlet message will be
displayed when a black tick is displayed next to the message. If there is no tick
the message will not be displayed.

Real-Time Decoder

The Real-Time Decoder handles all the real time messages

coming into the system. It receives its messages from the gravel
decoder and then passes them on into hydra to be used for
example by the position calculator.
The Real-Time Decoder has four servlet flag options:

Show Messages In Shows the type and source of real time messages that are coming into the
Real-Time Decoder.
Example:
echo Data from: Decoder Unit: Unit Id: 444 Card Id: 2
echo Data from: Decoder Unit: Unit Id: 444 Card Id: 2
echo Data from: Decoder Unit: Unit Id: 444 Card Id: 2
gyro Data from: Decoder Unit: Unit Id: 444 Card Id: 1
gps Data from: Decoder Unit: Unit Id: 444 Card Id: 3

Show Timing Shows the timing of messages in the format:

[Type] U:[System Time (HH:MM:SS)] S:[Hydra Time (HH:MM:SS)] ([Time Difference]) : [Vessel
Node] [UTC]

Example:
Gps
Echo

Show Data Displays the decoded data from each input the node to which it is connected. Extra
information is given about the GPS signal including the time it came into the system, its latency and
age of correction.
Example:
GPS source A39A76AD-C05B-4D2E-837958E06ECCDA2B

Handles all of the position calculation of all nodes on the vessel,

guns and streamer, it is also where any Kalman filtering is
implemented.
The Position Calculator has 11 flag options:

Show Echo Data Displays the calculated and raw echo

depths for each echo node, the age of the signal and
which node it is linked to. In the following format:
[Time (HH:MM:SS)]: Echo [Node]: [Calculated Depth]
(Raw: [Raw Depth]) (TDiff: [age of signal])

Shooter Controller

Handles the prediction of shots and controls the Triggerbox

through the Gravel Controller, is also responsible for creating the
shooting log files and headers. In a multi vessel setup it controls
the communication and time sync with the recorder vessel over
the shooter radio.
The Shooter Controller has 13 flag options:

Show Debug Gives additional information about the

recorder controller and its communication with the
Triggerbox. Including the predicated time update and
when the header is received.

Requesting shot 1019 at 916738197.202356 (9.03 sec)
Triggers Received: 1018

Show Positioning Will give the vessel Easting and Northing, Depth, Heading, CMG and Speed for
when the shot is fired.
Example:
Vessel Pos: 320436.0E 7638981.4N Depth: 1504.0
Heading: 156.0 146.8 Speed: 2.1

Show Radio Shows the shot radio data transfer, including the message type, where the data is
from and any acknowledgements sent.
Example:
RADIO from CONTROLLER #92 at 85.49 **
RADIO from REMOTE data, waiting for 76 bytes
Recorder: received trigger: 3616
*** RADIO from REMOTE ack #92 at 85.68 ***
RADIO from CONTROLLER #92 at 85.71 **
RADIO to REMOTE #92 at 85.71 **

Show Triggerbox Displays the messages sent to the Triggerbox via UDP.
Example:
Request sent to tbox via UDP: 3629 at 916665243,573344 (916665237.880)

Report Stare Reports the current status of the Triggerbox, will give information such as the
current mode, the online status, the current shotpoint and timing information.

Dump Radio Raw creates a file in the TriggerFish installation directory containing all the raw data
sent across the shooter radio. Nothing is displayed in the shooter servlet.

Dump Radio Times creates a file in the TriggerFish installation directory containing all the times
messages are sent across the radio. Nothing is displayed in the shooter servlet.

Test Begin Line Sends a begin line message to TriggerFish and will start the currently selected
line.
Example:
Successfully opened logs
Begin Line: Test 1001 1100 to 1.1
Beginning line: Test

Requesting shot 1001 at 916737355.084000 (0.00 sec)

Test End Line - Sends an end line message to TriggerFish and will stop the currently selected line.
Example:
Ending line - test signal

Test Shoot Point Will send a test shot point with a 4 second delay.
Example:
Requesting shot 1002 at 916737485.834123 (4.00 sec)

Disable Ethernet Disables an Ethernet radio between the shooter and recorder. No messages are
displayed in the Shooter Controller window. (Function is now depreciated).
Simulate Triggerbox Used for testing purposes only. Allows functionality of TriggerFish to be
tested without having a Triggerbox connected to the system. It is important to note that no
messages will be sent to any external units and no guns will be fired. When a line is started with
Simulate Triggerbox enabled the following message will be displayed:
Beginning line in simulate triggerbox mode.
The real triggerbox will not be used.

The shooter state in the Shooter State pane in Survey Manager will also change to a grey colour
and say that it is in simulation mode.

Autopilot Controller

Calculates and creates the messages to be sent the vessels

autopilot unit. Messages are sent to external units via the gravel
controller.
The Autopilot Controller has 4 flag options:

Show Debug Shows general messages about the audopilot and system, including if the vessel
config has changed, the tasks that are being tracked in transit and if the autopilot command has
been received.
Example:
Config changed
Autopilot settings changed
Sending Turn Task
General Data Received
racking Shooting Task in Transit

Show Position Shows the position of the vessel reference, the offset in the X any Y directions, the
position of the node auto pilot is steering to, the final distance to the preplot line, the distance off
line to the specified offset and the nautical miles conversion of the distance off line.
Example:
Vessel Reference : 369289.7 7537474.1
Offset : 0.9 0.0
Node Position : 369289.7 7537474.1
Final Distance 19.999737 Distance off line 9.999737 Nm 0.005
Vessel Reference : 369291.8 7537476.0
Offset : 0.9 0.0
Node Position : 369291.8 7537476.0
Final Distance 20.005502 Distance off line 10.005502 Nm 0.005

Show Commands Displays the message being send to the autopilot.

Example:
$GPAPB,A,A,0.005,L,M,A,A,48.0,T,,48.0,T,48.0,T
$GPAPB,A,A,0.005,L,M,A,A,48.0,T,,48.0,T,48.0,T

Header Broadcast

Responsible for broadcasting the nav header to the recording

system on a streamer vessel via either UDP or serial connection
and is also responsible for encoding the message in the expected
format.
The Header Broadcast has 1 flag option:

Dump Header this option dumps the headers to C:/Headers/[linename].bin. These headers can
then be viewed using notepad. It does not show any extra messages in the Header Broadcast
servlet.

Scouting Controller

Controls any scouting tasks including the creation of log files.

The Scouting Controller has 2 flag options:

Show Debug Gives information about the start and end of logging as well as if any configuration
has changed.
Example:

Turn Calculator

Is used to calculate the best turn path between lines and is used
by the autopilot as the path to track between tasks.
The Turn Calculator has 1 flag option:

Show Resends shows if a turn needs to be resent. Displays the task sequence number and the
turn choice number.
Example:
Resending path 55[1]
