About parameters
The ParameterServer component can be used to access asynchronous and ping based parameters. The parameters can be "read", "set" or "subscribed" to. A subscription will only notify you when the parameter’s value is changed.
Parameters identified as "read only" (R/O) can not be set. Some of them, for example sensor parameters, can be set, but the new value will immediately be overwritten if an active sensor is connected.
The parameter name must be used when working with parameters as described in section Parameter management.
The following parameter types are used:
•  Application parameters
•  Operation control parameters
•  Sample storage control parameters
•  Navigation and vessel motion parameters
•  Environment parameters (Water column)
•  Environment parameters (Transducer face)
•  Transceiver information parameters
•  Ping based parameters (Conditions)
•  Ping based parameters (Settings)
•  Bottom detection parameters
