Inductive Data Recorder (IDR)

The Inductive Data Recorder (IDR) stores all inductive telemetry communications from multiple S9 or Sea-Bird instruments on a mooring. On shallow moorings without real-time telemetry, a diver can swap IDRs on the mooring line to retrieve data instead of recovering the whole mooring.

Key features

• Records data and commands from S9 Enduro or X-TP sensors, Ulti-modems or Sea-Bird inductive instruments
• Shares mechanical design and electronics (SD card, USB interface, battery) with the Enduro APT Recorder, but has no sensors
• Installs concentrically on the mooring wire in seconds with a cordless driver
• Small tapered shape reduces mooring stress and snagging

Applications

• Shallow oceanographic moorings without real-time telemetry, serviced by divers
