commands to the towfish by combining 200 VDC with FSK control signals for
transmission over the coaxial conductor in the tow cable. In addition, the TPU
initiates each ping cycle to the side scan sonar and provides a trigger signal
simultaneously with the responder trigger generated in the towfish for use with an
acoustic positioning system. The TPU can also input standard National Marine
Electronics Association (NMEA) 0183 message sentence formats from a
connected GPS, and a 1 PPS input is provided which inputs 1 PPS (one pulse per
second) signals from the GPS. This signal is used in conjunction with a NMEA
$ZDA message input to add an accurate time stamp to the data.
