3.584 TB (7 x 512GB SDXC cards). With up to 4 additional storage modules, the memory can be extended up to 17.920 TB. Optional: A precision clock module hosting a GPS synchronizable Symmetricom CSAC clock. Sono.Vault_C8_UserManual.doc 5/33 develogic GmbH... -
Page 6: Mooring Frame
The Sono.Vault system can be mounted in vertical orientation using our corrosion resistant stainless steel mooring frame with sacrificial zinc anodes. The mooring frame can be fully disassembled for servicing and transport.

The biasing can be performed internally at the analogue frontend. Please contact develogic for details. The biasing of the inverting input (- IN) can also be performed at the connection cable side. This is done by connecting a capacitor with a value equal to the capacitance of the hydrophone between IN and COM. -

Page 11: Hydrophone And Recorder Electronics
Hydrophone and Recorder Electronics Hydrophone The standard system is equipped with a Reson TC4037-3 hydrophone. The maximum operation depth of the hydrophone is 1500m. Survival depth of the hydrophone is rated to 3500m. Fig. 4 – Hydrophone assembly Sono.Vault_C8_UserManual.doc 11/33 develogic GmbH... -
Page 12: Analogue Frontend And Interface Module
It is possible to sample the hydrophone signal with up to 220 kSPS at 16 bit nominal resolution or with up to 96 kSPS at 24 bit nominal resolution. The module hosts a precision oscillator with a standard precision of less than 0.5 ppm drift / year. It is software calibratable. Sono.Vault_C8_UserManual.doc 12/33 develogic GmbH... -
Page 13: Recording Modules
Acoustic signal data is written in individual WAV files with – due to file system restrictions – sizes of up to 4 GB per file. Sampling frequency, start time and amplification are written into the WAV-file header. Optional data, Sono.Vault_C8_UserManual.doc 13/33 develogic GmbH... - Page 14 Finally, the currently active recording module is sent to sleep and the next module is activated.

Page 15: Configuration File
Basic configuration usually is delivered according to customer specification. If the system configuration needs to be altered after delivery, it is recommended to contact develogic for support. Changes of the configuration without detailed knowledge of all related aspects of system operation may render remote systems temporarily or permanently inaccessible. - Page 16 <Handshake>None</Handshake> <Parity>None</Parity> <Transceiver>232</Transceiver> <Mode>Command</Mode> <Sleep>Yes</Sleep> </Com_0> </Ports> <Clock> <UTCOffset>0</UTCOffset> <TCVCXO>16384000</TCVCXO> <BaseCalib>45875</BaseCalib> <Crystal>19200000</Crystal> </Clock> <Scheduler> <Event_0> <Time>2014-01-01 08:00:00.000</Time> <Interval>86400000</Interval> <Repeat>365</Repeat> <Fixed>Yes</Fixed> <ADC24Freq>24000</ADC24Freq> <ADC16Freq>0</ADC16Freq> <FileDuration>300</FileDuration> <WAVID>TestFile</WAVID> <Gain>4</Gain> <Type>StartSampling</Type> </Event_0> <Event_1> <Time>2014-01-01 08:30:00.000</Time> <Interval>86400000</Interval> <Repeat>365</Repeat> <Fixed>Yes</Fixed> <Type>StopSampling</Type> </Event_1> <Event_2> Sono.Vault_C8_UserManual.doc 16/33 develogic GmbH...
