Page 21: Functional Description
Functional Description Functional Description This section provides a detailed functional description of the Series 3900 Sonar System operation. 1.4.1 Introduction The Series 3900 Sonar System is a single beam side-looking sonar intended for high resolution survey use. It departs from previous single beam systems in that the swath forming process is implemented digitally using digital signal processing (DSP), rather than analog delay lines, phase shifters, or multipliers and adders. - Page 22 CHAPTER 1 Overview NOTE The transducers are side specific and are not interchangeable. The two transducer arrays are each composed of piezoelectric ceramic sub-arrays that operate as both transmit and receive elements. Each set of sub-arrays is arranged into a continuous line array spanning an overall length of 48 centimeters. The towfish electronics is divided into four individual boards: a 900 kHz Transceiver board, a 445 kHz Transceiver board, a Multiplexer board, and a Power Supply board.

- Page 25 Functional Description The Multiplexer board digitizes the signals from each of Multiplexer board. the transducer sub-array channels along with the signals from the sensors, encodes the data, and transmits a high baud rate digital data stream to the SP-II TPU via the tow cable. The Multiplexer board also receives the trigger signal and command messages which instruct the Transceiver board to fire the arrays and configure aspects of towfish operation.

Page 34: Power Requirements
CHAPTER 3 Setup and Test Power Requirements The Series 3900 requires either 88–264 VAC, 47–63 Hz or 12 VDC power to operate. The system is designed to protect against over and under voltage and transient spikes. However, it is always best to check the power source carefully before operating the equipment. -
Page 35: Connecting The Tow Cable
Towfish Setup 3.4.1 Connecting the Tow Cable It is essential to exercise care when making and breaking the tow cable connections at both the SP-II TPU and the towfish ends. WARNING Before connecting the tow cable, verify that the SP-II TPU is turned off and that its AC and DC power cords are disconnected from the power sources. -
