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
The power requirements for the 2000 topside computer are 90–260 VAC, 50/60 Hz.
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
The AC power cord is provided for connecting the equipment to standard U.S. 3-pronged outlet. For non-
U.S. power outlets, switch out the cable with an appropriate one to your location, or use a US power strip
with the local connector on the lead cable. Refer to

NOTE: The 2000 topside computer is auto-sensing, and therefore

message sentence formats from a connected global positioning system (GPS) or integrated navigation
system.
