Schedules can be con? gured using the Origin Scheduler PC application, en- abling operations to be de-risked prior to deployment.

The Origin Portal Web User Interface facilitates device con? guration in opera- &XVWRP&DEOH tional conditions, including modi? cation of the sampling schedule. Two schedules can be run together, allowing dual moni- ([SHUWV toring tasks to be performed with a single device. File data can be inspected using the Origin Viewer software package. An

MF acoustic modem is integrated as stan- dard and facilitates remote actions using a topside modem and the Origin Topside

PC software.

This enables data inspection and quick charge battery and storage checks, sched- ule recon? guration, and data of? oad; all core features of the ADCP can be accessed acoustically once deployed.
