WARNING Klein Marine Systems recommends all troubleshooting be done by a trained technician. Some circuits in the Sonar Transceiver and Processing Unit have voltages as high as 240 volts, and some circuits in the sonar towfish have 1500 volts. You should familiarize yourself with the location of these voltages before you attempt any troubleshooting.

Theory of Operation 1.2.2 Sonar Processor The Sonar Processor includes the electronics for processing the sonar data, multiplexing and transmitting the control signals to the Sonar Electronics, and receiving and demultiplexing the sonar and auxiliary sensor signals from the Sonar Electronics.
CHAPTER 1 Overview 1.3.2 Sonar Electronics The Sonar Electronics is composed of the Sonar Electronics housing and the transducer arrays which are shown in Figure 1-3. Transducer Arrays Figure 1-3: NOTE The transducers are side specific and are not interchangeable. The two transducer arrays are each composed of 12 piezoelectric ceramic sub-arrays, which operate as receive elements, and a single transmit array.
Page 19
Theory of Operation Figure 1-4: Sonar Electronics Block Diagram The Transmitter board produces a transmit pulse, at the Transmitter board. start of a swath, that ensonifies the sea floor over a defined footprint. The Transmitter board is composed of two individual transmitting channels, one connected to the port array and the other connected to the starboard array.

CHAPTER 1 Overview 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 TPU via the tow cable.
Page 21
Theory of Operation The Intel based processor enables external control of the Sonar Processor. Processor by a PC connected over an Ethernet 100BaseT local area network (LAN), providing control over system functions. The Demultiplexer board receives the encoded digital Demultiplexer board. data telemetered from the Sonar Electronics, recovers the clock and data, and then decodes the data and routes it to the processor for storage.
CHAPTER 2: S PECIFICATIONS This chapter includes the physical and performance specifications for the main components of the Series 5000 AUV V2 Sonar System. NOTE Specifications are typical and subject to change without notice. Sonar System Multiple side scan sonar channels and Sonar channels: 6 sensor/auxiliary channels Sonar frequencies:...
