SVP Sound Velocity Profiler - GarethG/ProjectRinzler GitHub Wiki

##Software By default the SVP outputs depth (in mBar) and the velocity of sound in water as one continuous string at about 4 times a second. It's normal for the velocity in sound reading to be zero when out of the water and the depth reading out of water (in the BRL) is about 10.040.

The use of the strtod() function should limit the output only to output in a double, so characters shouldnt happen. There is however is minor issue whereby if the sonar disconnects then reconnects again the packet will be incomplete and strtod() will return zeros for the depth...
