Semiconductor laser diode, 905 nm
The EM 2040 MKII is a true wide band high resolution shallow water multibeam echo sounder, an ideal tool for any high resolution mapping and inspection application. With this release, Kongsberg Maritime has upgraded the hardware and software to increase the swath and improve the data quality of our EM 2040 series.
The general purpose software suite from EIVA – the Navi family – is divided into an online SW suite (for onboard acquisition, recording, QC etc) and an offline processing suite for onboard and/or ashore data cleaning, processing and reporting.
The general purpose hydrographic software suite from EIVA is sub-divided into an online part, used for data-acquisition, navigation, QC etc. and an offline processing component for data editing, cleaning, processing and reporting.
The 701 Digital Link (701-DL) providesan interface between a computer running EdgeTech’s Discover sonar acquisition software and an EdgeTech sonar system (tow vehicle, sonar head). The 701-DL is self-contained, with all interface and power supply electronics housed within. Communication between the computer and the 701-DL is an Ethernet LAN connection using TCP/IP protocols. The data and control interface between the 701-DL and the sonar system is via TCP/IP protocols over the ADSL link using the 701-DL Ethernet connection and ADSL modem. A Sync Trigger port provides an interface with an external TTL trigger. EdgeTech Discover software interfaces with the 701-DL, monitors and controlsthe attached system, and displays and records acquired sonar and sensor data. The 701-DL fits a 19-inch rack and is delivered mounted independently in a rugged 2U-SKB case or mounted with an EdgeTech-provided computer in a rugged 6U case.
The STARMUX III contains both standard and proprietary hardware.
At times, EdgeTech may change the standard components due to their availability or performance improvements. Although the component manufacturers—along with their models and styles—may change from unit to unit, replacement parts will generally be interchangeable.
The PACS, Portable Acoustic Command System is a highly versatile deck unit that can be used to control and range on EdgeTech’s (formerly ORE Offshore) low frequency (LF) or medium frequency (MF) acoustic releases and transponders.
The rugged, lightweight unit provides a highly intuitive user interface that allows you to go right to work, spending your valuable time in the field, not in training. The system is powered by an internal lithium-ion rechargeable battery or A/C power.
The PACS works with all standard EdgeTech acoustic transponding releases. See below for our acoustic transponding release products.
