After unpacking the system components, be sure to safely store the shipping containers, including any
packing materials, for later use. When transporting or storing the system, all items should be packed in
their original shipping containers in the same manner in which they were originally shipped, and always
store the system in a dry environment when not in use.
3.2 Power Requirements
Power to the system comes in through the Rack Mount topside, which requires 90–260 VAC, 50/60 Hz.
The unit is auto switching.
3.2.1 Use of an Uninterruptable Power Supply
The AC power source should be continuously free of high amplitude, high frequency transients, as this
type of interference could cause degraded performance or damage to the equipment. An uninterruptable
power supply (UPS) with power surge protection is recommended for powering the equipment. However,
whether or not a UPS is used, the AC power source should never be the same as that being used to power
electric motors, such as pumps and winches, on the survey vessel. In addition, switching type battery
chargers or DC to AC converters with square wave outputs also should not be used.
3.2.2 Changing to a Non-US Power Plug
AC power cords is provided for connecting the equipment to standard U.S. 3-pronged outlet. For non-U.S.
power outlets you can modify this cord by cutting off the 3-pronged plug and attaching the appropriate
plug. Refer to
