About this manual 1 ABOUT THIS MANUAL 1.1 General This is the maintenance manual for the EM 710 Multibeam echo sounder system. The manual contains detailed descriptions of each of the units in the system. Each circuit board and mechanical assembly is described.
Innovative acoustic principles The EM 710 operates at sonar frequencies in the 70 to 100 kHz range. The transmit fan is divided into three sectors to maximize range capability but also to suppress interference from multiples of strong bottom echoes.
Page 11
Logging of water column data and of raw stave data (before beamforming) is a system option. Choice of operator software The EM 710 is delivered as a complete stand-alone seabed mapping system. The Operator Station, a high-performance PC work station, includes the necessary operator controls for setting up and running the system, data logging and system testing.
