5.1.3 Storage

When not in use, all the components of the 2000 Series Combined Side Scan Sonar and Sub-Bottom

Profiling System should be packed in their original shipping containers in the same manner in which they

were originally shipped and stored in a dry area.

Spares, such as circuit boards, power supplies, cables, and other critical items should be purchased at the

same time as the system is purchased, as some original equipment manufactured (OEM) components may

change. All spares are optional. For a list of recommended spares at the time of the system purchase,

contact EdgeTech sales.

software. A separate 1-TB hard drive is also included for data recording. An image file of the 160-GB hard

drive is provided on a CD. This CD can be used to completely restore the 160-GB hard drive to its original

shipped factory configuration in the unlikely event of its failure. For instructions on how to restore the

operating system, refer to APPENDIX B: "System Backup and Restore."
