M3 Sonar FLS Installation Manual

Sonar Processor

In this publication, the computer is referred to as the Sonar Processor. The Sonar Processor

contains the operational software, and offers the user interface that allows you to control the

M3 Sonar FLS. It is a vital part of the M3 Sonar FLS Forward Looking Multibeam sonar.

The Sonar Processor runs the M3 Sonar FLS software that

manages communication with the Sonar Head, performs

all beamforming and image processing and presents the

sonar imagery. The Sonar Processor communicates with

the sonar through a standard Ethernet cable.

If you purchase a computer locally, make sure that

the chosen model meets the functional and technical

requirements. The computer must be designed for rugged

use, and the construction must be able to withstand the

vibrations and movements of a vessel.

The Sonar Head requires a DC power supply to run.

Normally, the DC voltage is supplied in the location where the Sonar Head is mounted, such

as on a remotely operated vehicle (ROV). A test cable and power supply is available for

order as an accessory. The test power supply uses a 24 VDC switching power supply.
