6 Operating Procedure
In common with other items of precision equipment, you may rely on the quality of data gathered by the
440 System only if you follow the correct operating procedures when you use it.
This section of the Manual considers the role that the 440 System plays within an overall survey
operation. It includes several checklists together with the related explanations to assist with each of the
major stages of any survey that uses the System.
This is an important section of the 440 Manual. On request, Teledyne TSS can
supply additional copies to the survey planning team to provide guidance during
the early stages of Project Management.
To allow for meaningful analysis of the acquired data, the 440 System allows you
to keep a record of the System configuration during a survey. When DeepView for
Windows is configured a file is created that can be accessed by File, and 'Print
Configuration' option. this presents a text file on screen in WordPad format that
can then be printed out via the normal windows process to a connected printer.
Variables included in the configuration file are of great value during data analysis,
and Teledyne TSS recommend you should always keep a written record of their
settings with the survey log.
6.1 Pre-Survey Preparation
At an early stage during the planning procedure, the survey planning team should decide whether to
use a 440 System. By making this decision early in the planning procedure, they can assign the correct
equipment and personnel to the operation.
Contact Teledyne TSS for advice if you are unsure whether the 440 System is suitable for use in a
particular survey application.
Pre-Survey Check List
Training and availability
1. Check the availability of a 440 System and a Teledyne TSS-trained operator for the period of
the survey.
Target scaling
2. Determine the diameter, and weight-coating or jacket thickness of the intended survey target.
3. Will an automatically generated target scaling rate give sufficient accuracy?
