Fishing ship monitoring system Seinemaster

The Notus Seinemaster is a wireless seine monitoring system. Its design is based on more than 25 years of experience. Notus has worked closely with customers to offer sensors that provide reliable, real time data and convenience of use. With our unique and reliable Activ-Omni Intelligence, Notus is the only net monitoring system to boast two-way communication, offering a complete view of the seine as it is being set and pursed, AND true omnidirectional capabilities, providing sensor data when it’s needed most. The Notus Seinemaster provides optimal performance, for superior results. The Seinemaster provides answers by attaching small, robust sensors to the seine. All information is transmitted to the vessel wirelessly. Sensors are installed just below the corkline and on the leadline. Just one sensor on the leadline provides depth of the seine, sink rate and range to the leadline. Up to three sensors can be added to the leadline. Alignment sensors can also be installed just below the corkline. These sensors calculate the alignment of the corkline with the leadline. A system consists of shipboard equipment (command unit, computer and hydrophone) that communicate wirelessly to sensors on the seine. Seinemaster displays all information in graphic and numeric form. Notus sensors boast an active, two-way communication system, not offered by other net monitoring systems. Instead of relying on traditional one-way pingers, Notus systems ‘talk’ to each other via proven two-way protocols. Using this reliable technology, Notus is the ONLY system capable of providing a complete view of the seine as it is being set and pursed.
