The Zebra-Tech Measuring Board is a tough portable battery

powered device that is designed to take measurements of objects

and organisms in harsh environments.

The measurements are logged internally and then downloaded to a

mobile device using the Zebra-Tech app. The measurement can

also be transmitted wirelessly to the Zebra-Tech Deck Logger for

logging in real time.

The Measuring Board has been specifically designed to operate in

wet and muddy conditions. It is ideal for field measurements of

shellfish, fish and other organisms.

A range of user select operating modes are available which enables

a variety of measurement methods. For example; logging 2 distinct

species, or making length and width measurements.

1. INTRODUCTION

OVERVIEW

The Measuring Board is fully splash proof but it should not be

completely submerged underwater.

To switch on simply slide the moving jaw. The Measuring Board will

automatically shut down after 1 minute of inactivity (no jaw

movement or button press).

There are two buttons which each have a different function

depending on the operating mode.

If the wireless link with the Zebra-Tech Deck Logger is to be used,

the Deck Logger needs to be configured so that it will pair with

your unique Measuring Board. Please refer to your "Deck Logger

Custom Application Manual" for details on how to do this.

MODE OPTIONS

•Mode 1

This is for logging the measurement made by each single A or B

button press. The button ID associated with the measurement is

recorded in the data file.

Example: Two species of shellfish could be measured with a button

assigned to each species.

•Mode 2

This requires 2 button presses to occur in a fixed sequence –A

followed by B. The data is not logged or transmitted until both

measurements have been made.

Example: The length and width of a shellfish could be measured

with length assigned to button A and width assigned to button B.

•Mode 3

This requires 3 button presses to occur in an A,B,B sequence. The

data is not logged or transmitted until all 3 measurements have

been made.

Example: The length,width and height of a shellfish could be

measured with length assigned to button A , width assigned to

button B first press and height assigned to button B second press.

•Mode 4

This mode enables button presses to be used to increment a

secondary manual measurement following the jaw measurement. It

can be used in 2 ways;

1) If no additional secondary measurement is required, simply press

button A.

2) If a secondary measurement is required, button B is pressed (jaw

measurement is logged) and then subsequent button B presses

increment the secondary measurement. Pressing A then logs both

measurements.

Example: The length of mussels are being measured by pressing

button B, which saves the measurement. The visual quality of the

mussels are being rated on a scale of 1 to 3. Pressing button B

again will increment the value required. Pressing button A will then

log the initial length measurement and the number chosen to

represent visual quality. Note that the manually chosen value is

arbitary. It could represent a measurement such as an estimation of

Abalone hump size or a general value such as in the above

example.

MENU SYSTEM

To enter the menu system both buttons must be pressed

simultaneously while the Measuring Board is turned on.

The menu is navigated by pressing the A button if the current menu

option is required, or the B button to advance onto the next menu

option.

DELETE LAST ENTRY

Selecting this causes the last logged measurement to be deleted

from the on-board data storage.

Note that the measurement is not deleted if it has

already been transmitted to a nearby Zebra-Tech Deck

Logger.

TARE

This zero’s the sliding jaw measurement. Before selecting Tare,

ensure that the jaws are pushed together.

3. MENU

ENABLE BLUETOOTH

Data stored on the Measuring Board can be offloaded to an

Android device using the Zebra-Tech app. Please refer to the

Mobile application section for details. Select "Enable Bluetooth"

whenever data is to be offloaded using the app.

CLEAR STORAGE

This deletes all the data in the on-board storage.

STATUS

•SN: The Measuring Board’s individual serial number which will

match the serial number etched on the bed.

•Store: Amount of available data storage.

•Ver: Current firmware version number.

•Batt: Internal battery voltage.

CONFIG

Selecting this enables the configuration setup menu to be

accessed.

•Measuring mode

Mode 1 to 4 can be selected –refer to description above.

•Set time

When selected, the internal clock time and date can be set. This is

done by pressing button A to select the field to adjust, then sliding

the movable jaw until the correct value is displayed, then setting by

pressing button A. Fields can be skipped by pressing button B.

•Units

The units displayed can be set to mm, inch or raw. Note that

regardless of the selected units, the logged data is always mm.

•Exit

Return to normal operation.

The Measuring Board logs all measurements in its internal

non-volatile data storage. This data is retained even if the battery

goes flat. There is sufficient capacity to store 10,000 single

measurements or 5,000 double measurements.

Each measurement is logged with the time and date and also the

button number that was pressed to trigger the measurement.

The user is alerted if the data memory becomes full. No further

measurements are possible until the data is deleted.

Data can be offloaded using the Zebra-Tech mobile application –

available for Android. See Mobile application section.

Measurement data is also wirelessly transmitted every time a

measurement is made. If a Zebra-Tech Deck Logger is nearby it will

display and log the Measuring Board data if it has been configured

to pair with the Measuring Board.
