Chapter 1 Introduction
The BV5000 is a 3D mechanical scanning system that combines the data quality
of BlueView’s high-frequency microbathymetry sonar with the ease of use of
traditional 2D scanning sonar. This manual covers setup, installation, operation,
and technical specifications of BlueView’s 3D mechanical scanning sonar system.
When ordered, the BV5000 ships with either a 1.35 or 2.25 MHz sonar head, which
are both covered in this manual. For specific details on individual sonar head
specifications, see the specifications tables listed in the specification section of this
manual.
