    NOTE This is a Note. Notes provide explanatory information that may be useful to the operator, but is not necessarily vital to the operation of your RESON system. CAUTION This is a Caution. Cautions provide important information regarding your RESON system.
  • Page 16 Disregarding information provided in a Warning box may prove harmful to personnel working with or near the system. Chapter Arrangement All RESON manuals are designed with the same basic structure. The following chapters are included in this document: Introduction provides a short summary of the SeaBat 7125 SV2 sonar system, including an overview of the architecture and the main features.
  • Page 17: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION 1.1 System Overview The SeaBat 7125 SV2 (for Surface Vessel) is a high-resolution multibeam sonar system that measures relative water depths over a 140° (or 165°) wide swath perpendicular to the vessel's track. The SeaBat 7125 SV2 is a dual-frequency system designed for convenient installation on small surface vessels.
  • Page 18: System Architecture

    INTRODUCTION 1.2 System Architecture The SeaBat 7125 SV2 multibeam sonar system consists of a combined sonar interface and processing unit, known as the transceiver, as well as a receiver unit and a projector unit, both with dual-frequency operation. 25 meter cables connect the receiver and projector units to the transceiver.

    C.6.3 Wet-End Mounting Take care that the sonar head assembly is electrically isolated from the structure to avoid corrosion problems. RESON provides an optional mounting bracket, which is described in appendix E.3 Mounting Bracket. The head should be immersed in water to a depth of at least 0.8m. This ensures that noise from surface waves and turbulence generated by the mounting structure does not degrade performance.

    CAUTION To reduce the amount of radiated emission, the cables for receiver, projector(s), and SVP must be bundled tightly together onboard the vessel. SeaBat 7125 SV2 Operator‟s Manual Page 171 July 25, 2011 Version 3...
