# SET-POOL-MODE

This command turns on and off Pool Mode. Pool mode can be used when running an ROV in a pool or other confined area.

Pools are are mostly free of suspended debris, entrained bubbles, and suspended vegetation. Since they are confined and usually highly specular, it is common for second or even higher-order reflections to have better power than the first-arriving reflection. Therefore, the strategies that work best in open water do not work well in pools, and vice versa.

The setting is stored in flash memory until a new setting is received.

Examples:

SET-POOL-MODE ON

SET-POOL-MODE OFF
